just got everlast durahide advanced headgear, hope thats right if not let me know, but i am new to sparring and wanted to know what kind of things i should do during training with this headgear to improve. thanks!
lol you sound scared, this is boxing you cant be scared to get hit. Your nose and chin arent protected so if you get hit on those spots it WILL hurt.dont know what to expect here man. what does this feel like? anything to expect?
how come ur not signing up to a boxing gym? you sound like ur serious about getting into boxing but ur not gonna get that good without a trainer.well im not scared i just am like anticipating it ya know i have been training for about a month to start
Nervousness and if you're smart you'll work through it and fight. If not you'll let the guy pop you in the head.dont know what to expect here man. what does this feel like? anything to expect?
I just recenty started sparring after training for about 3 months. First off, it's normal to be nervous about it. First time I sparred was with my coach and as we put on the head gear he just asked if I was nervous and I was honest - I said "no". He replied that if your not nervous your first time sparring than there's something wrong with you - so, as expected, there's something wrong with me.dont know what to expect here man. what does this feel like? anything to expect?
Somebody tell the new guy that sparred me it was impolite cause he gave me a bruise under my eye :laugh: :thumbsup: He hit hard so me as a veteran had to hit him harder.I just recenty started sparring after training for about 3 months.

I doubt you'll start out formal training by sparring. When you do spar remember to keep your eyes up on your opponent. Keep your hands up. That part should be automatic when you start sparring, anyway.
It's fun as hell. I don't tee off on a guy when sparring. I'm a heavyweight, too, and if I connect with a guy's noggin at full force it's very impolite. Based on my limited exposure, it's bad etequite to tee off when sparring.
