How long till u spar

[greengloves]

I read that you dont start sparring as part of training before your coach thinks your (physically at least) ready. How long was it before you were 'allowed' to spar? Ill soon be going to the gym (need drivers license) and i was just wondering.

about 2 months maybe 3 for me, makes it a lot more fun when your allowed.

Was a month for me. Looks like it depends on you and your trainer.

I started sparring about a month after I joined my boxing gym. One of the trainers asked me if I was going to show up for sparring, so I did.

we had to register first before we could so we are covered by insurance, soyou might want to check that out also.
