Anxiety in the gym

[gramm]

I have the same problem but its not in the gym its when i fight. I do great in the gym sparring hard and everything else but during my first two fights i froze bad, I basically forgot everything I know. but like the other guys said the more fights I had the better my nerves and feelings became and now ive won my past last 3 fights in a row. amateur of course.

Everyone who trains in boxing feels a little nervous when exposing their skills at the gym.
You feel vulnerable as you expose your best abilities in front of the "strangers" who judge you.

To be honest what I found was once I immersed myself in the gym "community" I felt a lot more at ease. This meant I just made friends of the fighters and mentors of the trainers. Being comfortable in my gym I feel more at ease and have no reservations in exerting myself more.

Best of luck buddy
