I know the owner trains a kid who turned pro last year and is currently undefeated. We always learn a new punch combination every class so I try to keep track of that. Pretty much the first 30 minutes of class focuses on fitness while the last hour focuses on punch combinations and technique.

Weird. Im not a boxer, but i would think you would want to work more on technique when you're fresh and on conditioning afterwards.

I believe this class is designed to get you into boxing shape while learning technique. The next class you'll focus only on technique. I'll see how it goes.

Pretty much every gym I've been to works back to front like that.
It's ok for fitness BUT you have to be very careful not to get in to bad habits through fatigue. So I does as I'm told in class. If I'm working in the gym on my own or at home I switch to what I (and prevailing sports science and logic) consider to be more efficient use of my time.

Hey Awesome, out of curiosity would you mind continuing to post on your progress perhaps starting a training log here at Saddo's?
