Good luck ForemanRules. An aspiring fighter of sorts myself I will be following this very closely to see how and what you do. Thanks in advance for keeping it updated.
240 is going to be pretty solid, how tall are you and do you know what your reach is? |
|
What are you doing for endurance training, big guy?
Will it be your cardio? Probably need daily endurance cardio. I'd mix it up. Speed walks with loaded pack and/or hill hikes (if you have them nearby), biking, rowing, skip rope, jogging. |
|
I'd talk to your trainer about it. You need to build up wind, and for that, you need daily cardio. You must be training at a boxing gym. Find a trainer who understands conditioning. Pay em for their time, to give you a conditioning program to follow for the next couple months.
Its the key, really. Beyond speed and power, balance, you gotta have good conditioning. BTW: don't use age as a cop-out. You can run on grass or a soft track if you have to. Stairmaster is OK, but you need more variety. |
|
Good luck with the boxing training Foreman. I wish I had the time to box again, but I don't so I will live vicariously through you.

Do callistenics or a med. ball circuit or a combination of the two as your cardio ( I do that when I box 3x a week) . You can also add specific joint mobility exercises into the circuit to limer you up in areas that you might be tight (hips, shoulders, etc.)
Do them work:rest ratio specifc to boxing. So, ciruit the entire time of a round, rest whatever the rest is, and then go again. During rest you can either (a) rest or (b) do some active rest by doing some light stretching. |

..I mean, good luck Foreman.|
Please post video of your first fight...

Lost 6 lbs since I stopped drinking 5 days ago.

Good shit. Hey! I thought you stopped drinking more than 5 days ago?

My trainer is a younger 147lb pro, he is great with my workouts but he does not have a heavy weight mantality. We have talked training out side the gym but I don't think he understands that at 264 lbs I can't run 6 days a week, and much of that running 100-200M sprints. If I train like a 147lb kid I will destroy my knees inside of 2 months.

Hi Foreman,
In my opinion I would like to see you at around 215 at 6' 1 1/2". I really think that would be your best bet. You are right about destroying your knees - I'd like to see you at 215 of TOTAL MUSCLE - I believe everything would fall into place for you. I think that would be perfect for you!! Maybe 220. And I too like boxing myself but I box for the sport and the friendships I develop - same as with Martial Arts. I like to be total and complete. But I see no sense in damaging myself in the pursuit but being smart about it all. And having fun - real fun with the Guys. I am not all that worked up about who "wins". Or not. I KNOW what my potential is and I never really show that - until I have too. Those I have had to "express that to" later tell me "I am very dangerous" (their words not mine). I let what I do speak for itself - I am a Man of very few words.... Take Care Buddy, John H. |

Hi Foreman,
There's ABSOLUTE NO WAY I would want you to stop lifting weights - NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At 230 you WILL HAVE TOTAL MUSCLE AND TOTAL VASCULARITY I am sure!!!!!!! Take Care, John H. |
|
YES Foreman. You will have ENTIRE BODY - TOTALLY - VASCULARITY like a firm cock. When you train for boxing, it should feel like jacking off (masturbating) you should take a very very long time. You will have the VERY BEST MUSCLE a MAN CAN BUILD in your cock - TOTALLY - VASCULAR!
Take care, KelJu |

Quick question foreman. There are zero boxing centers around me. I have a heavy bag and want to go buy a speed bag as well. Walmart has a rack that will hold both for me. My heavy bag is laying on my garage floor. What can I do to improve my game at home? I imagine I need one of the bigger round bags that look like a speed bag but 10x bigger as well. I'd hate to hit a heavy bag full strength... Anything you can advise me on I would appreciate. What do I need and what are some good drills for me? I'm serious about it, and honestly wish there was a gym around. Thanks!
Btw, good luck oldschool... |

Shadow box
Shadow box Shadow box Don't even worry about speed or power, just Shadow box. I do 3 ,min rounds sometimes 6 min then 1 min off. Concentrate of form....watch fights and look at how they punch. Once you get the speed and heavy bag up you can mix it up. |

BUT ONLY because I KNOW how HAPPY - and HEALTHY - you ARE AND WILL BE!!!!!!!!!
|
how many push-ups can you do? do you do the plyometric ones, or just regular?
how do crunches, and sit-ups help with boxing? |
|
We do two kinds. One is just really fast sets of 30, the other is a bitch and I don't know the name.....basically I push up and hold at the top for 5 sec then drop to 1-2 inches off the ground and again hold for about 5 seconds. We never do more than 30-40 reps at a time, it's just part of a 5 set superset.

AM.
