Re: Ways to get motivated?
i dont try and get 'mad'... that leads to doing stupid things and taking your eye off the ball so to speak.
if i feel myself taking the foot off the gas, i just think about some chav drinking a can of stella and waiting to start a fight on a friday night... enough motivation to hit the bag for me ;D
train harder than your opponent and dont let emotions get into play, they make you do stupid things lol

Watching the Rocky Anthology always helps me. ;)
Re: Ways to get motivated?
I always thought about how many hours I spent in the gym practicing punching other people and I thought about how much damage I could do with my hands. Then I would think about the other guy and how he was spending the same hours practicing the same things to do the same damage; since I didn't want to be the target off the damage he could do with his hands, I would be VERY motivated to avoid it.
Re: Ways to get motivated?
mate, geetting really pissed off isnt a great idea, you lose your cool. we got a kid in our gym whos really fast, and a good counterpuncher. but he gets pissed really easily, loses his cool and goes to shit, he tries to hit you with some huge ass shots, which doesnt work. you see them coming and just smack him about more.

i fantasize about myself being the world heavyweight champ and everyone else admires my fighting skills and most people are scared to be in the ring with me. that pumps me up every time.
