Street Boxing Workouts


Street Boxing Workouts

In Street Boxing you have to workout to be an a champion fighter. Even if you don’t really need those well-defined or bulky muscles, if you aim to be the best, you need to workout.
The workouts below can serve as checklist for everyone striving to be top boxer.
Street boxing workouts are either general or specific.

A. General boxing workouts

General workouts may vary in intensity, depending on the urgency and type of fighting you
are in. They may be heavy or light

1. Heavy workouts include all the works - weights, aerobics, and sparring. They are
often used in preparation for an upcoming boxing for the street event.

a. Weights lifted by both hands must be about half your total body weight to be
effective. This of course depends on how physical your sport is. For boxing
mostly mental, like chess and billiards, it would do the player a lot of good to
regularly engage in bench presses and squats using about one-fourth to onehalf
the bodyweight. Say, you weigh 70 kilos, use 15 to 30 kilos. For
dumbbell training, use 5 to 25 kilos each hand. Concentrate on repetitions. If
your sport is mainly physical, you may have to use heavier weights. As an ace
athlete, you will have to do these things under the supervision of a competent
physician. The above-mentioned are mere suggestions to give you an idea.

The point is you must have regular weight training.

b. Push-ups and pull-ups are part of a street boxers workouts. Gymnasts use these for
calisthenics. But these can also be considered part of weight training. Such
exercises are ideal for both physical and mental sports.

They offer enough strain to your muscles without overworking them unnecessarily. Like weight
training, these “up” exercises are also done in 4 sets with a number of
repetitions each set. Say, you do 30 push-ups. Rest for one minute after that.
Then do another 30. Increase the number of sets as your endurance increases.

Many top fighters do 120 push-ups with a one-minute rest each 30 repetitions.
c. Aerobics is an excellent way of improving blood circulation. Be it physical or
mental sport, air and blood circulation is vital. Aerobics strengthens the heart
and lungs. Strong heart and lungs make breathing control easy, which is a big
plus in handling emotionally stressful events.
