    I enjoy my training enough to never have this problem. And I have friends down the gym with me at the same time... maybe not the same friends who invite me out to go get pissed, but still friends of a different kind. We all been chucked together through our love of this sport, and here we are.

    Then when the weekend comes and I do finally go out, people are always commenting on my appearance (physique) that I gained from boxing.

    I find it pretty easy to balance the 2. I guess you gotta love your training though, cos that was my key.

      I really don't know how some of you guys do it, especially if you go to school and ****. I barely have enough time to work out/exercise whenever I go back to school...it's always school then studying until bedtime or if I get off on my early days I go to work and then go to bed when I get home. Then on the weekend if I go out I get ****ed up and can only exercise on the weekends.

              WORD. you feel real better mentally knowin your the only clean one, tellin people you dont smoke or drink, tellin people your a boxer and your dedicated to it..i love it when people at school no ima boxer...my algebra teacher who is also the basketball coach knows im a boxer and always tells me about sugar ray leonard n tells me to stay focused with it..kinda gives me extra motivation that helps me alot

                You are missing out. But as soon as you age you will realize that it is no big deal. Clubs are not a big deal at all. No social dynamics...bunch of horney guys and a bunch of girls who are there for mostly attention...not to hook up. **** that ****.

                    Just yesterday I decided that I'm putting boxing first, school second, social life third. (Distant third)

                    And I have no real problems with that. You've gotta' sacrifice. If I have to read Smokin' Joe once or twice a month to stay focused, I will, ha...
