ricky hatton strenth training routine

[Spartacus Sully]

Yeah never did the 50 lb thing that was just an example of how weights in my opinion should be used most effectively involving heavy weight and fast motion. the most ive done per leg is 25 lb and thats pretty heavy but i still was able to sprint.

Holy **** that looks like a bodybuilding routine

yah, a bad one too...
1 set of 10 deadlifts? really? are you ****ting me?
The most important exercise in that whole routine and he does it once, with weight enough to do 10 times.... wow....

I agree with PhenomKidd, powerlifting protocol's the way to go; especially when done in addition to normal boxing training - you'd need steroids just to recover from that amount of wear and tear on the body.

deadlifts, squats, dips, and pullups should really be in a boxer's routine if messing with weights - also as many olympic lifts as you can manage (clean, clean + press, snatch) - kettlebell stuff will work for oly lifts too.
deadlifts & squats can pack on a lot of weight, so if you're worried about weight issues, i'd keep 'em light & explosive.

I usually alternate between 3 different protocols when I lift and do total body every time.
*one day is powerlifting (5x5 or thereabouts total body)
*one day is a little like that bodybuilding protocol - usually 3 bodyweight exercises for 10 reps a piece and 3 to 5 sets, so 10x4 dips, 10x4 pullups, 10x4 jumping squats
*the last day is more of a barbell complex for endurance - 2 or 3 supersets of 5+ exercises done in rapid succession for 10 to 20 repetitions apiece, usually for speed. So like, 10 overhead press, 10 squat, 10 cleans, 10 bent row, 10 deadlift, 10 jumping squat.

it depends on how you lift, obviously if you train like a power lifter you will gain more benefits from lifting weights compared to one who would use weights as a bodybuilding routine. The last thing a boxer needs is to become a bodybuilder, sadly a lot of noobs will mistake that image of a meathead for a powerful athlete.

weights isn't vital to boxing, just look at a young mike tyson whom relied solely on calisthetics.

"At only 13, he weighed 200lbs, and had muscles that no other 13 year old had. He was strong with it too. He was bench-pressing 220lbs for $10 bets with the staff at Tryon."
