boxing will get you into shape so go to this club and start working
Some people box to get into shape. But my theory is you need to get in shape to box. Start running, start off slow, 1-2 miles. After that gets easier throw in some sprints. Try to keep it under 20 minutes because you need to develop explosiveness, not necessarily endurance. Lifting weights couldnt hurt to develop a little strength. I recomend you work every muscle in your upper body so that your range of motion wont be hindered (you use pretty much every muscle to punch anyways). Work out EVERYTHING, 3 sets, 15-24 reps. Neck, Traps, back (upper and lower), biceps, triceps, chest, and shoulders. Do crunches, side crunches, and reverse crunches on the days you dont lift weights. That oughtta get you started, for more advice see Adam G.B or whoever. Hes pretty good at giving people advice like this. Seems like he knows his s h i t.Quote:

Try waking up in the morning and doing 20 minutes of stretching exercises, situps and so on. If possible follow up with a 20 miute or so walk an walk very rapidly- before breakfast. Three times a week get to a place where you can do some road work: start with 3-4 3min. rounds, alternating jogging, running and all out sprinting during the round and walking very fast during the rest. In the gym warm up with a couple rounds of fast and serious shadowboxing, then 3 rounds on the heavy bag, 3 on the double end bag and acouiple on the speedbag.
I would suggest that you begin the exercising and roadwork a week or two before goin g to the gym. Once there you shoud be ready for some light sparring in @ 3-4 weeks maximum,
dont forget to take your vitamins son...haha, nawh but for real. Take a multi vite, cuz thats not a very healthy diet.Quote:
