cross Posted March 3, 2007 Author Share Posted March 3, 2007 Spoke with the trainer again today to talk over the finer details of training. Turns out he is only interested in training people who want to compete(not me), and is not willing to train someone who wants to do it for fitness etc... which i completely understand, he wants to train competitors, so we agreed that i should not start training with him. A little disappointed, but not alot i can do about it, so ill continue my current training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushido_man96 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 That's a bummer, cross. Is there any boxing trainers around your area that would be willing to train you just for you to work on your fitness and self-defense levels? I think that boxing has so much to offer, even if you choose not to compete. Besides, you still get the sparring work done in class, so you will always be learning something. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baronbvp Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Yeah it does. I guess you'll have to keep training on your own? Or is there a boxing gym you can go to periodically that's farther away?Congrats on MOM, by the way - well deserved! Only as good as I make myself be, only as bad as I let myself be.Martial arts are like kinetic chess. Your move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cross Posted March 3, 2007 Author Share Posted March 3, 2007 Im considering speaking with the coach again and hopefully try to work out a deal where i can train and not compete. Will run it by him and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baronbvp Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Maybe you can offer a trade - train him in some things you know, that he doesn't.
