Anyone Here Do Boxing Workouts?

Let me preface this by saying I have absolutely zero intention of getting in the ring with anyone. Those of you who have met me know that I will literally get killed if I did that. I have never tried it before and people say it is a good workout and even better stress reliever.

I want to try it for strictly fitness purposes. Heavy bag, speed bag, etc. Anyone here that lives in Charlotte know of a good place?

Thanks.

I box, but in Wilmington. And trust me, you say that you will never want to step in the ring... But after a few months of hardcore training on the bags, you will want to at least give sparring a shot.

When I first started, I was the same. No f*cking way I'm getting in that ring, ever. Now, although I get my face beat in every time I compete, I can't stop myself from wanting more fights. The adrenaline you get when in the ring is unreal.

Nope, never. Looking into taking classes though out of fear for KoolKatLuke.

On a more serious note, it's one of the best things you can do for yourself. You will absolutely hate it and love it at the same time, depending on how hard you work. Like SIOS said, you will want to get in the ring eventually. Nothing compares to hand to hand combat.

If you want a real workout, join an MMA gym and expand your training.

Thanks, Smitty. Maybe after awhile and I learned the basics and felt good about it, I could spar with someone who is on my level. I think it would be good for my self confidence and overall fitness.

Right now I just want to learn and get the fitness benefits of it.

As for MMA, that stuff is too much for me.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      Valid, and throw in that what Wilson and Smith did is not out of the ordinary for a WCO

      The season is over, and we're going to get clowned on by Mayfield and Darnold before it's over.

      Darnold was pretty bad until last year.  He implodes mentally, its just what he does.  To this day I dont have a problem with letting him walk.   Baker is a bit different.  He was an ass in Cleveland and they couldnt deal with his poo, but he at least had talent and went to the playoffs.  So you know he could play at least.  There were different stories coming out from the time he got here, competing with Sam and then the practice team release fiasco.  Both good and bad.  Some say he was a good teammate others say he bitched behind the scenes.   From what it appears his wife has worked with him and he calmed down and his play has reflected that.  Tampa loves him.  So if we were going to keep one it probably should have been him but man he was really bad for us.  But to his defense he didnt get the first team reps until late into camp.     In obvious hindsight we should have signed Baker cheap, drafted a dude and let the cards play out, but you know the rest of the story and now we are going to have to watch bryce for 2 more years

      Again his one year calling plays happened to be Baker's lowest YPA not counting his split year hear.  That tells me he was less aggressive with a QB who likes to be aggressive.  We have that and almost 2 full years of Bryce Ball here in Carolina.  He will take some deeps shots as most offenses have to in order to keep the defense honest.  Quick passes and hopeful YAC.  I'll give you one guess to which year Rachaad White had the most receptions as TB's RB?  Remember the first thing he wanted to do here is focus on how quickly he wanted to get the ball out.  That's part of his recipe to help QBs and help his OL.  Run the ball, quick passes to hopefully players in space, sprinkle in a little PA.   So yeah you can look at some coaches he learned under and speculate, but I am telling you what he literally is doing and has done as a play caller.  Offenses that were and are 100% his baby.
