I agree 100% student i could go on and on about the benefits and i think youve found one of them yourself the fact that it is fun and refreshing, the reason most never make it in sports like boxing is they burn out, be careful not to over do it set yourself week breaks throughout the year and change up training so its not the same all the time, it might not be working your weak points the best that you could be but its better than getting fed up and quitting in the long run isnt it? the next thing i think is like you said the concentration required to do a lot of things is almost like meditation in a way, itll really teach you how to focus on the task at hand, which is very important in boxing when youve got to keep your head clear and stay focused even if your taking a paggering which lets face it in most sports the same focus is needed but its not impeeded by someone trying to take your head off.

I would like to share student but i feel its not my place im afraid, scrap has being very generous in the things hes taught me to say the least and i wouldnt want to go around telling things he might not want up on a forum, but the most important thing is im still learning and im just a student myself, allthough i really like to try and help anybody i can especially people as eager as yourself im still just a noob to this myself lol, allthought martial arts has been a big part of my life for quite some time meeting scrap has made me realise i dont know jack yet lol. if you look on these forums scrap has allready shared quite a few absolute gems that i swear by and use as a part of my regime religously. hes the man you want to be talking to, but like scrap would say without seeing you in person its very hard to tell you what is going to help because everyone is different but im sure hell have a few things you could do safely by yourself.
