cross Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 Hey folks,Had my first night of boxing training tonight !Was excillent, i have to admit im feeling the pain right now, but in a weird way its a good pain... cant wait for the next lesson.Coming from a traditional background of karate (which i still train in) i thought my fitness would be alright, but when we started the skipping then bag work, all non stop, it really added up and was a good eye opener.Thats about it, ill go and have a nice cold shower for about an hour or so... hehehe.

elbows_and_knees Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 a lot of people don't realize just how well conditioned boxers and thai boxers are. That is part of why they make such formidable opponents.

cross Posted April 20, 2006 Author Posted April 20, 2006 How's training going, cross? Its going very well, thanks for asking.Im really enjoying it, thinking of increasing my training to 3 days a week at the gym. Over the next 6 months or so we are moving to a new location with all new training equipment etc. Should be good to see how it all goes.Im glad i made the transition from karate to boxing. My karate instructor is still a good friend of mine and agrees that its the right thing for me to do.cheers,cross.

cross Posted May 22, 2006 Author Posted May 22, 2006 Ok, i finished up my boxing training. I really enjoyed it and have taken quiet a few drills and conditioning ideas that i can apply to my training now. I would recommend all martial artists to atleast give boxing a try for a few weeks and you may learn some interesting and practical training principles.
Mischievousjoe Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 I actually just started boxing also! It seemed like a good way to prepare for the 2 weeks i'm about to spend training muay thai in thailand - as i used to take tae kwon do in this area - which made my kicking respectable, but definitley left my hands a little lacking, and conditioning wasn't a priority at my dojang ( aimed at families and whatnot) . So far so good though, the defensive skills and systematic repetition of basics in a round system makes it an amazing workout.
