I'm eating much more in terms of protein, particularly poultry, and i'm going to be buying a speed bag soon hopefully.
My friend told me that in terms of my 'style' I remind him of a 'brawler', because I make the room shake when I hit the bag, but I need to work on my footwork.
Tips? Recommendations?
I'm a n00b to boxing, but I love it, always have, and I want to learn more about it.
My particular needs are dietary, but I also would love training recommendations, how to make me hit harder, what exercises work best for everyone.
Stuff like that.
Also, tell me if you pick anything in-particular out that i'm doing wrong.
I'm 5'9, 165, and seventeen years old, to get a gist of my body-type.
Thanks.
as for the weight trainin work with dumbells. i highly doubt ur sparring every nite the trainers wouldnt allow it. for the speed bag u dont need one just put ur hands together and move"em in a circular motion for about 10 mins a day. in terms of eating: really has no effect i fell physicaly stronger and have more stamnia after i eat a mans meal. do too ur height and weight maybe u should consider crash diet. me iam 5'6 140 21 years old i dont gain weight. as for the exercise try this if u have it go ondemad under tv exercise.look up rock hard arms/rock hard abs. its simple exercise using dumbells and 2 chairs. go "runnin" find a nice place with a beautiful scene it ill help u with endurance. its find too rock bag if ur trying become a k0 puncher like me. just make sure u wrap ur wrist tight.
