Yup, exactly the situation with the gym I go to. We get many kids and adults who come in to try it out. Some come for 2 days, some for a week or two, and then disappear. Most dont want to put in the effort. Southpawed, just keep at it and let the trainers see that youre dedicated.

My first days at the gym were the end of last June, and being a student, Im sure I was expected to just stick around for a week as well. First few days trainers had me doing jab drills, some basic combos on mitts, double end bag, and footwork. They didnt comment on my form yet, but were trying to see if Id come back after they worked me. Yeah, ask for feedback, not just from the trainers, but from the more experienced fighters. Some of the best tips I got on throwing proper hooks and body shots were from the other fighters. Lets them know you want to improve.
