  • Learn How to Box: The Basics   2 years 51 weeks ago

    I have to disagree. Your liver is on the right side and if it is forward, you have a greater chance of taking a hit straight to the liver. If you have never been hit there, let someone hit you there and you will realize that it is better to keep that side back and protected. I would say you should always do right hand back and develop that way of fighting. You are better off in the long run.

    To start out you need to slowly get started with exercises more on that later.First thing is get 2 notebooks for logs. One for what you eat daily make sure you write down everything you eat including snacks.You need to concentrate on eating proprerly plenty of green vegetables ,protein meats such as chicken,pork, very lean beef and steak.Plenty of fiber and lots of water also. No candy ,soda,junk food. You need to concentrate on eating vegetables and not fatty meats also pleant of fresh fruits. Make sure you most important keep at it. Fight the urge to eat junk food.

  • Eat Your Egg Yolks - It's the Egg Whites That Can Kill You   2 years 51 weeks ago

    I eat three egg whites before I work out in the morning. When I eat 1 or 2 yolks with them (usually because they don't crumble out of the hard boiled eggs) I seem to have at least 30% more energy. Nothing scientific, just an observation....

  • Boxing Tip #6 - How to Deal with Getting Hit   2 years 52 weeks ago

    Hi, I'm 13 and want to become quite dedicated to boxing. Only problem is that at the moment I'm quite fat and not very strong. I also have low stamina. How should I start out?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Boxing Tip #6 - How to Deal with Getting Hit   2 years 52 weeks ago

    The trainer or owner of the gym should be evaluating you before any sparring, to see if you are ready. Sounds to me like your just throwing your self into sparring, Here is how things should go before sparring,
    1.be taught basics including defense, then do glove to glove sparring to get used to seeing your opponent move and punches come at you.
    2. Then do defensive sparring where you practice defense and shadow box your partner as he throws punches at you, the idea is to practice defense and not let his punches be scoring punches.
    3, Then a trainer should spar with you to make sure you are ready, if you pass then he should match you up with someone a little bit more experienced than you not just throw you in with the sharks.
    Get an experienced boxing trainer who has a proven record of boxing themselves and of training boxing champions

  • How to Build a Double End Bag   3 years 4 days ago

    Well done.

    I made one myself using a dodge ball (about the same weight and bounce as a real double end) and a basketball net around it. Then just some small rope for the top so the height's consistent and the bunjee chords to the bucket for the bottom. The net is nylon so you can't feel it even without gloves on, and you can tighten the ball in place by running a string through the net near the top of the ball and tying it tight. Duct tape over the rough parts and you're good to go. I had to buy all major parts and the thing still only cost $16. WAY better than the $40 to buy a real one.

  • Boxing Tip #6 - How to Deal with Getting Hit   3 years 4 days ago

    I've started boxing three months ago and weigh about 112lbs. I am not quite sure where i stand but have sparred like crazy for the past couple of weeks. Guys and girls. I took a really good beating yesturday from a guy and looked at your website with alot of tips that i haven't even heard of. Do you think i should find a personal trainer?I go to practice five days a week for two to three hours a day. I am working really hard but dont' have any kind of defense so most of the time i feel like a sitting duck. When i was sparring there were also four other people in the ring which i was tripping over and getting blocked in by. Is that normal? Just wondering...Would really appreciate a few tips. Thank-you,

    Try this routine run 200, 400 , 600 ,800 meter sprints 30 second break in between then do a mile run.then repeat it do as many times as you can.Try mixing up the sprints. If you have a big stair case.Do them up and down being one set start at 10 sets work your way up. then without stopping do sprints from above.

  • Boxing Tip #6 - How to Deal with Getting Hit   3 years 1 week ago

    Hey whats up like your page,

    I been training with bags and footwork for many years but at age 36 just really started sparring. Being advanced in training Im sparring with good amature and newly professional fighters. Im doing good for a round or two but losing my breath and getting really tired. Im 5'8 158 pounds just a little fat around the waist and lot of muscle from lifting weights 3 times a week. I've trained biked and ran but nothing is like sparring for running me out of air. Coach says i need conditioning and breathing techniques. What do you suggest?

  • Boxing Term of the Day: Pivot Blow   3 years 1 week ago

    Far out in the wilds of Oregon
    On a lonely mountain side
    Where Columbia’s mighty waters
    Fell down to the ocean’s tide,
    Where the giant fir and cedar
    Are imaged in the wave
    O’ergrown with weeds and lichens,
    I found Jack Dempsey’s grave

    I found no marble monolith
    No broken shaft or stone
    To tell of the great triumphs
    This vanished hero won;
    No rose, no shamrock I could find,
    No mortals here to tell,
    How sleeps in this forsaken spot
    The immortal Nonpareil

    A wind rock-strewn canyon road,
    That mortals seldom tread,
    Leads up this lonely mountain
    To the bivouac of the dead.
    And the western sun was sinking
    In the Pacific’s golden waves
    And solemn pines kept watching
    O’er poor Jack Dempsey’s grave

    Forgotten by ten thousand throats
    That thundered his acclaim;
    Forgotten by his friends and foes
    Who cheered his very name
    Oblivion wraps his faded form
    But ages hence shall save
    The memory of that Irish lad
    That sleeps in Dempsey’s grave

    Oh! Fame, why sleeps thy favoured son
    In wilds, woods and weeds?
    And shall he ever thus sleep on
    Interred his valiant deeds?
    ‘Tis strange New York should thus forget
    Its “Bravest of the Brave”
    And in the wilds of Oregon
    Unmarked, leave Dempsey’s grave
    Val O’Grady
