About Me

I am currently deployed in Iraq. My question is:What can I do that focuses on building endurance and stamina besides running??

Hey I'm from Australia and want to upgrade my account so I can view your training program, but I'm only 13 and my parents won't let me spend any money, especially on the internet because they're very old fashioned and don't understand "the e-mail machine".  When I try to click the links for upgrading for free they all send me an e-mail transcript and I don't understand how to get the reward word.  Can you explain it to me?

Hi, Congrats on the site. I am trying to get a username and password and then I will be making a donation as a thanks for the hard work your putting in. I want to start the 12 week routine a.s.a.p, I have filled in the details and it says it will send me an e-mail but I keep checking and nothing has arrived. How long does it normally take? Thanks again, Tony.

Hey.. i from india... I was silver medalist for karate at national but got bugged and got attracted to boxing... how should i approach it...

Hello, Niranjan! 

I'm not too sure how things are set up over there, but the best approach would be to find a boxing gym. If that's not available, check out this site more in-depth. It has great instructional tools that will teach you the basics and get you familiarized with the fundamentals. It also offers great workouts that will improve your conditioning and performance. Please post any specific questions you might come across.

Good luck!!

Can i just send some in an envelope from time to time? Augusto 50 years old

I used your site to get started into boxing a few months ago, but stopped and now am doing it again. I had a login before but I'm not sure I remembered it correctly. When I try to receive a new password, the site isn't recognizing the email address, but when I try to make a new login, it says it is taken, can you help me?

I have a question for you. I'm very courious if it's late to start boxing at my age. I'm 17 years and 6 months old. I am waiting for your answer because I want to start it but i heard that it's late. thanks for your answer. Great site!

Hey Bogdan - not too late at all. You're at a great age to start. Good luck!!

I'm 29 and need some sort of physical exercise. Maybe to have a amateur fight or 2 also if i turn out to be any good. Am I too late to get started?

Nope.

You're never too old. There are guys in my gym who are pushin 50, and they're in there every day workin out.

Just go for it. Do your best.

Good luck!

I just started at a local boxing gym and am 63 years old...I have a bad knee and wanted an aerobic workout that would (1) not further injure my knee through pounding (2) afford good aerobic exercise (3) be something that would interest me so I can stick with it. I have never been an athlete and found my first lesson (group) humbling...but also everything I was looking for. I just know that if I stick with it I'm going to age more gracefully through aerobic conditioning and perhaps more confidently as well. I'm wondering how many other old guys there might be out there like me....and what their own stories are in terms of getting into the Sport of Kings - the Sweet Science. Dogparkdaddy

If I wanted to do a white collar fight, I would like to know how to go about doing one. If anyone has any suggestions I'm all ears, I'm thinking of maybe one day doing a real boxing match as I would like to do it professionally. I would like to hear what someone thinks, I'm 33 years old as of December 2, 2007.

Hello, was searching the internet for boxing tutorials (as want to learn to box)and found your site which I think is really cool. Found some of the info really interesting.
Cool. Thanks.

One thing I would improve if I was you, is perhaps the organization of your shop. As find it hard to look for things without sifting through all things. For example, when looking at DVD's, perhaps would be an idea to put them into categories, as for example, if you were looking for boxing tuition DVD's, you would have to sift through them all.

I know you can search, but depending on what the DVD is called, you may or may not get the right results returned.
Anyway, won't put me off and buying some things from you, just means I will have to take a bit of time sifting through everything.

And don't worry, your not the only site that is like this.
The multi-national Amazon website mail order is really hard to find things on sometimes as well.

Anyway. Like your site.

Will be back soon when I have some green stuff.
Cheers

Thanks for the kind words and I've added some subcategories to make browsing a little easier. Like you said, you can always search - for instance if you are looking for instructional boxing DVDs, just search the boxing dvds with the keyword instructional.

Nice one. I think you have done a really good job organizing your website into categories. Make shopping so much easier. When I have money, I will be back. Unfortunately, am in between jobs at moment. Even though I have loads of qualifications including a Degree from a world class college! But there we go. Where I live, the local job market has been over populated with imported foreign workers from poor countries, as they will work for peanuts as the money is worth a great deal more in their own countries, which is ace for them, and crap for unemployed locals. I am also in my 30's, and just getting back into training. Spent the last 4 years married to a Jehovah Witness girl who was against any form of exercise that resembled fighting. Which is a real shame, as I grew up doing karate, and over the last ten years have trained in a number of martial arts for fun. The last few months have been really interested in boxing, as I know boxing is superior to most other forms of punching found in martial arts. Not only interested in Sport Boxing, but am quite interested in the old bare knuckle boxing and hand conditioning for self defense. The way bare knuckle fighters hold their guard is perhaps more practical for self defense, and their hand conditioning is definitely more practical, however, I am contemplating not conditioning my hands as thoroughly as a bare knuckle fighter and am considering buying a pair of dark gel hand wraps and adapting them into gloves for wearing on the street (in dangerous areas). Please don't get the wrong idea though, I am not a trouble maker, I have just recently been victimized by some really idiot hard drug dealing criminals who use really nasty tactics to assault their victims. I am simply protecting my life, as I do not want to end up dead, in hospital or in prison because of these idiots. Anyway, good improvements on the site. Wish you good business for 2008 and hope to be back soon. Just one other quick idea. You may consider putting a shop icon at the top of the website, as this would give people a straight entrance to your shop. I would also try and design the pages so that the top part of the page stays static (with all the navigation icons on) so that users can easily navigate around the site with ease. Also, perhaps it may be worth considering selling MMA book and kit too, as this will attract more people to your site and many MMA fanatics also need to learn to box! So you may very well get more boxing tutorials sold too! Anyway. Good Luck. Cheers Jus
