Since the Moore vs Jones thread has become a debate about weightlifting, well at least some of it, I thought it would be a good idea to just start a forum about training/boxing exercises. I usually go on another board for that but a lot of the posters are douches. Since it seems like many of the posters have experience in it and enjoy discussing it, why don't we? Thoughts?

Rowing is one of the best exercises for any boxer..All the best fighters of the past did rowing and I bet some still do today..I use a rowing machine that has a resistant chain connected to it..I do one pull of it to my belly button with arms against my side,than a pull right below my chest and let my arms go out naturally and than a pull to my throat with my elbows bent and at shoulder level..Do 2-3 minutes of this as fast as you can..You can do an extra round or 2 if you want..You also want to make sure you go all the way forward after a pull so you really work your legs a lot..These are killers if you do em right..Full body work out and will boost your stamina up a lot..

Sprints----Get on a treadmill and for starters do 4 sets of these..Run on either 10(I'd suggest 10 for most people),12,or 15 for a minute straight and rest for a minute(or a little longer if you're tired) than keep repeating this..Once you get better,add on another set or 2..Once you keep improving after that,add on a half of a minute or another minute if you wanna push yourself but I wouldn't recommend adding any more sets of yet..Once you get to sprinting 2 minutes for 4-6 sets,than you can add more sets on..This will take a long time to improve to the next level since these sprints will kill you if you're not used to these kind of interval training methods..

If ya guys like this stuff,I'll add more work outs on here..Boxing tips are hard to give over the internet but I'll attempt this another time..
