Baseball Training Box
Help me decide what to do?
my 15th birthday is next month and im getting a set of boxing gloves and a heavy bag, but i dont know what i want to do. im not sure if i wanna use boxing as training and to workout for baseball basketball and football, box competitively, or just box with my friends. im 5’8″ 125lbs. what should i do?
Try answering the following questions. You might want to write them down and answer them in writing:
1. Do I have a strong desire to box competitively? Is this something that I would enjoy very much? Is my desire to do this so strong that I will be willing to devote much time and effort to training for it?
2. Which sports do I like best? Baseball? Basketball? Football? Boxing? How would I rank them if I had to rank them 1-2-3-4?
Also, if you haven’t boxed much yet, you might want to get some training and some sparring experience before you are able to really make this decision. If sparring is not that much fun for you, you might just drop boxing. But if you love it, you might get hooked and want to box competitively.
There’s really no right or wrong answer–as long as you choose some sport(s) to participate in, you have made the right decision!
