Just Starting Out

[Gayle]

Hello everyone i was wondering if any of you guys would be willing to help me out. I want to start boxing not looking to be the next big thing but want to get into the ring but i would like to know what all training exercises that has worked for you guys would be and a good diet program. Im not all that athletic but i do have the heart and determination. I know a lil bit about boxing and everything did some a couple years ago but would actually like to get into it. Any and all comments and replies will be greatly appreciated.

take massive breaths in and release them slow but as hard as you can. This will build the muscles that your lungs use to release and take in air.

Thank you both for the help and quick tips.

This is what you do. Hit him and then when he tries to hit you you move and then hit him again. If you can accomplish this 51% of the time then you're generally in like flint.........Rockin'
