I wouldn't be here if i didn't box but yes i guess there are many that don't box and pretend to know lots of it.. boxing (and kickboxing) is a way of life for me, i do it 4, 5 or six times a week just depends on my mood but i am not telling people at work that i do box. It is my world. I don't tell what i do unless being asked. I do many sports, boxing is just one of themComment

I convinced my principal one time to start a after school thing were a bunch of kids would go up to the boxing club and do a group training, mostly trying for me so I could get their easier but also for all the kids that say they are use to box or would be good at boxing. And whadya know the day we meet in the gym to sign up and give money only me and my 2 best friends show up.Comment

I've never stepped into a ring with an opponent.
I concentrate on health and fitness for myself. Boxing fitness is definitely a factor for me. My biggest strength is running/jogging. Not so much sprinting but cross-country. I've completed 2 half-marathons in successive years with a harsh training regime.
Strength training is also a strong attribute of mine. Cardio (skipping/running/swimming) are my essentials, with weights being second.
I've sparred many times with my gym friends (amateurs), but it's not something i want to do myself. I'm the first to admit i am not great in sparring, but the fitness aspect is my focul point.
I try to train every muscle in my body, but i don't want to look like a gym freak. I'm only 144lbs at 21 years, with an aim of being around 155lbs. I'm mainly defined than mass muscle (lots of high reps, low weights).
You will not find me saying i box, but i will try to help on fitness if somebody is asking for it whether my advice is worthy or not.Comment
