How much training a week?

[RedDragonBoxing]

My boxing club is only open 2 days a week and the 2nd day is so crowded you have to share bags which is a pain in the ass. anyways ive gotten a hell of a lot fitter than what i used to be in 2 months but i feel i could do more than once a week. how much training should i be getting each week and anyone got any training regimes they can recomend?

Re - amount of training. This is relevant to your current work capacity, and how much you are actually doing in your current two sessions.. As a beginner, 3 times per week should suffice. More seasoned fighters will train approx 5 days per week, often working out twice a day. Use your body as feedback, if you feel like you are doing too much, then you are doing too much. If you feel like you can do more, then do more. A word of caution though, build up slowly. If you are currently working out twice per week, try training three times per week, and let your body get accustomed to that before adding any further sessions.

I am a southpaw, what would you like to know?

Thing is im not rly anything at the mo. im comfortable fighting orthodox, un orthodox and southpaw......havent rly found which one i prefer cos i havent fought yet. And i got the running down, working on the bag and skipping.......well im sorta skipping lol. but apart from pushups and all that crap is there anything i could do?

Seven days a week, I had two rest days since the end of January. I won't have time to train tomorrow so I guess that's number three, but I'll do manual labour instead.

No, I'm just addicted to training and I need it to remain focused.

I´m a southpaw just let me know what you need to know.
I train 5 days a week in total of 7 trainingsessions, two days rest. usually mondays and thursdays. I really don´t like that, I rather have wednesdays and sundays free. but it´s impossible since I have to time it with my schedule as a trainer as well.
All the best

i train in the gym tuesday, wednesday, friday and saturday morning, then run the other days about 4-5 miles. ill miss a run now and then but always at training in the gym

[turpinr]

have you had your first one yet, POWER

[Power]

not had a fight since i was 16, ive dedicated to boxing now, cause i was playing rugby league at the same time since 16 and decided its one or the other so gave up rugby in august.

im hoping to fight end of this month/start of next and get a few fights in quick succession. Then depending on how i do or feel i wanna go straight into the abae's because im getting older fast now so need to get straight in there and get as much experience as possible (im 23)

If you want to go somewhere you need to train boxing more then twice a week.

Running and fitness is usefull on the side. But it can't replace boxing.

So at least boxing 4 times a week.

[cool-cat]

i train every day of the week

[TheNewGatti]

i train 6 days a week at the gym.. i run 5 days.. rest on sundays.. u need to let your body get a day of rest... if u are gonna compete i dont think 2 days is enough.. 3 days at first is good.. but u should really up it to at least 4 if u wanna win

[QuestionKid7]

I train 4days a week.

[cockneyhardman]

if you train most days of the week it's a good idea to do days of just technique and skill training
this way u don't overtrain

I've started working now, but it's suited to my training, so now I train before work and in the evening after work. At least 14 training sessions a week.
