Hi guys
So as I've recently gotten into boxing I've been trying to increase my stamina and CV. I've always been a gym goer and 'heavier/stockier', so my cardio for extra calorie expenditure has always been a power walk for 20-30 mins.
As boxing is obviously more fast paced, I've started doing HIIT cardio or a fast paced jog.
Something which is annoying me is that my shins/calves give out quicker than my CV/heart does. I find that after about 6-7 minutes my breathing is getting heavier but its manageable, where as my calves are really quite fatigued and I get shin splits. I have some proper running shoes, just wondering if anyone has any tips or anything? The shin splits are the worst out of the two
Cheers
Dan
