Also I don't think he's doing 3 sets of 300 sit ups... he might be doing an ab circuit with lots of different circuits and sets that add up to 300 repetitions but he's not doing 300 in a row... that would be pointless for starters.

Sounds like he's doing a high volume of intense training, hope his nutrition is sorted if he's going to have been doing that for 5 months come fight night, or else he will be totally burned out and he'll struggle to get the mass he needs on.

Can't fault the guy's dedication though and I suppose it's probably quiet hard to translate Sport and Exercise science from Spanish into english...

I don't see what is so wrong with 300 situps in 3 sets. I've heard of Ali starting off with 1000 sit-ups every morning before his jog and 500 pushups. As for sprinting the entire 3.1 miles I think Marquez would be a track star not a boxer. That just seems unlikely. But then again this is Marquez we are talking about. Probably the greatest recuperative powers ever.
