Plyometrics training for boxing

[Sergio11]

How often would you do these ? .Think it's ok to do plyos a few times a week and train to box ? I know not to do too much strength but are these ok to help work on power ? Alos what's the most times a week you know of a boxer who does these

The amount of times per week depends on how intense ur workout is, since it's such a large muscle group and plyo takes a big toll on ur joints you shouldn't workout more than twice a week, if it's really tough once a week is enough. Rest is really important, if u workout twice a week try to get at least 2 days rest between workouts.

I agree with Cutthroat. Don't take the CrossFit approach doing them all the time thinking you're going to be more "explosive" or "quick". Plyos should NEVER be done by a beginner and only if you have at least two years of solid strength training and no problems concerning tendons and ligaments. That being said, you can build speed and explosive strength doing exercises such as power cleans and Oly lifts(again plyo minimal requirements apply here as well) or heavy bag training training will work as well.

You have many options. I would aviod plyos two days in a row or on sparring days. I have had great success paring them with other exercises (e.g Dumbbell Lunges 4x5 superset with Lunges Jumps 4x10 or Bench Press with Clap Press-ups) or you can use Medicine Balls or explosive exerices such as Bounding or Bunny Hops. The possibilties are endless. Constantly mix them up and add new exercise to keep your body guessing!
