too complex for me.

I've just recently been introduced to this type of conditioning. It's expensive to hire. Take a peek at Twist conditioning Incorporated. I'm just beginning to study the contemporary avenues myself, but I find them compelling.

Relentless, Its been about donkeys years, ive been doing it for 40 years. Probably first done by the romans. Its a matter of changing the name its old hat

[Von Milash]

Actually the Romans were the second but they claim to be the first. Pricks.

Relentless, it is know that there is mroe than one type of muscle fiber and each works differently. All complex training is doing is argeting both by doing the exercizes that engage that fiber. Do one set at heavier weight for max strength and one set at lighter weight for speed strength. You must always keep your movements "fast" though. The faster the movement, the more the fast twitch muscles angage, even at heavier loads. People think wieght training as wrong for boxing. That in itself is wrong. The secret is selected and diverse weight training.

Read about explosive lifting.

The best way to do this type of training is get a sprung matress or a deep crash mat thats all Im saying.Ollie tell me more, sorry Stanley work it out.

Periodize, periodize, periodize.

(I'm sounding all American)


In a session, weekly and monthly basis. Start slow and heavy, end light and fast.

[Von Milash]

MD, that's exactly my take. I am actually trying to coin my own tern that encompasses the idea of starting slow and heavy and ending light and fast, all the way to gloves on the bag.

It is called "Regressive Weight Training".

Spread the word. RWT is the way of the future and Von was the guy to bring it to you.
