progressive routine to try out

[boxingtactics07]

This is a routine I finished up and I'm definitely recommending it for anybody that is looking to change up their regular workout. It's a great challenge and will definitely make you a stronger person in more than one way. It's a great workout for anybody.

1.) Do the running portion in the mornings. Walk the rest of the way if you can't finish the run, but always finish it. You can run on an aerobic machine if you don't like to run outdoors. Perform on days shown.

2.) Do the calisthenics: pushups, situps, pullups; during your boxing workout. Try to do the sets as shown, if you can't, at least do all the reps in your own sets. For example if you can't do 4X15 pushups, do 6X10, but do all 60 reps or whatever the total is. Perform on days shown.

3.) Replace the swimming portion with a sports specific boxing-workout only (Jump-Rope Intervals, Bagwork, etc). Perform 4-5 days a week.

You do calisthenics all the way upto fight day?

Yeah, I used to do that exact same workout in the summer. I recommend it as well.

Cheech: No. I only sparred once a week on Thursdays when I used this routine.

These days I follow a different routine that consists of 5 different bodyweight exercises (pushups, situps, pullups, chinups, squats), long runs, sprints, jump-roping, and then sports specific boxing activities. Everyone trains differently, I just recommend people give this a shot is all.
