cool--thanx
im going to be doing pushups, situps, pull ups, dips 3 times aday. before school i will do one workout, and run a mile to start out. after school, 1 workout and use heavy bag. then later another workout and use heavy bag
I started taking boxing lessons at age 40. I'm 54 now and still work out on a regular basis.. One note, don't go in with a chip on your shoulder. There will always be someone who can beat you. Learn the sport and have fun. You'll make a lot of friends and have a very good time.
Hi I started boxing about a week ago im 5'9 and weigh about 170 i can only go to the gym 2 or 3 times a week and cant really afford any equipment so is there anything i can do beside pushups situps and running and how mnay times should I do these things thanks for your help
dont workout everyday its no good you need to give your body restign time figure it like this... when you do a bench press your stretching and tearing your shoulder muscle then when you sleep and recover your body rebuilds it but bigger just in case you do it again and it keeps growing due to that... now if you work out every day your body will keep deteriorating rather than building.. so when you work upper body rest for 2 days and you can work out your legs the next day but make sure you give them time too... just make sure you dont work out the same areas every day!!! you wont last long if you do that every day
Lawhoops you can not be 30, you come across like a 12 year old kid.
No shit .......LMAO, ;D Crazy
If you go to the gym, you can use the bench press machine, Lats machine, curling, skull crushers, leg lifts, squatting, shoulder shrugs, butterflies, chin ups, dips. And thats pretty much that I can think of. Is that what you wanted to know? All the things I mentioned, you can do at the gym. If you have any questions on how to do those work outs just ask.
thanx canvas back--i didnt mean to sound like i was going in with a chip on my shoulder--you're right there is always somone tougher than u

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt Lawhoops...
If you're 6'3 and benching 400 pounds then you are going to have to give up theweights and focus on generating handspeed above all other things.
With handspeed comes timing so I'd recommend using the suspended speedball (floor to ceiling) a lot, a little on the regular speedball but that won't come off straight away, it takes time to get that one right, and also punch only the ligfhtweight bags, not the heavy bags until your technique improves.
Speed speed speed for you Mr Lummox, right about now you probably have the turning circle of the titanic after all those years of pushing metal.
Secondary, work on flexibility, stretch regularly and practice twists. Make sure you can flick your hips each way so you can generate your power from down low.
Lastly, roadwork and skipping for the stamina that you will require. I said roadwork, not frickin treadmill, those treadmills are a waste of time. Find a good hill and use it regularly. Also do shuttles twice a week for sustained speed bursts required in the last 30 seconds of every round.
You'll need your respiratory wind to be at a high level for when you start to spar with another human being.
Because if you haven't been sparring before you will find out very quickly that it is nowhere as easy to hit an experienced opponent as it looks on the tv or in a video game.
Your stress/tension levels will increase markedly and your breathing will tighten so the fitness and stamina is crucial.
You will get hit. Probably quite a lot.
Take it on the chin. Keep your hands up and remember to breathe.
Don't fill your pants and never show up again, and don't get angry and go spacko or they will ban you from returning. Keep your hands up and your eyes on your opponent.
Remember muscle in the weights gym is little help to you in the ring.
Take your time as you have a lot to learn.
go to a gym.
Buy a skipping rope, skipping can be done every day
Squats and body weight exercises, these are exercies which require no equipment search the web.
Shadow Boxing this is most important exercise and can be done any time, any where, do this as much as you can
For weights look in local paper they can be bought secound hand for a resonable amount
