[@Highlander1432]

This is true

[@playboy198900]

Facts, before i setpped into a boxing gym i made sure to train myself everyday like an olympian doing massive amounts of cardio only to gas out my very first spar. It doesnt matter how in shape you are, if you go into sparring not knowing about basic rules like staying relaxed you will tire out rapidly.

[@Jpizzakebab]

Mental stress in combat sports swaps all of the stamina. Thats why my coach always told me not to bring friends or girlfriend to the exhibition fights. He wanted the other guy who deal with that pressure and it makes an impressive difference. Thank you so much dear coach.

[@tmt2058]

So true look at James Toney he never ran and he always said the most important thing in boxing is relaxation . He could box for rounds non stop

[@deathspank9573]

But Toney sparred quite a lot. He was never good at conditioning even at the lighter weight classes of his career, always struggled with his weight, but he had confidence that came from endless repetition. And that is not just a state of mind, it takes time and effort in the gym to get that good. Sparring is a workout by itself. You don't get that comfortable in the ring by mindset alone, James put the work in

[@JoshuaOwens]

He's great but he gassed hard so many fights, rounds just spent clinching. Dave Tiberi really was robbed.

[@burningknuckle26]

he got good enough eyes and reaction time to evade and block and parry, good defense. so he can afford to relax.

[@crazypato3752]

​@@deathspank9573I guess he is a perfect example of the idea that if you want to have good cardio for an activity just doing the activity would be enough. You want good cardio for boxing, ok, just spar constlantly. You want good cardio for basketball, ok, just play basketball constlantly. You want good cardio for marathons, ok, just run marathons.

[@jeff-hh9mc]

Yeah the steroids helped.

[@Joethecatholic]

Untill you try out boxing you will never believe how tense and nervous you can really be. I was a regular street fighting kid and then joined a boxing club. Boy did i find out how tense and nervouse and ignorant i really was. Im so glad i found that out because although i didnt become a great boxer it taught me a lot in life and its all about trying to relax as much as possible in everthing in life

[@RobertMarkovich-j5z]

Everything is mental , where the head goes the body will follow.

[@testtor2714]

If you think that mentality makes you a good fighter and your stamina great, you'll never win a fight. What you describe is exactly what every martial arts fraud is doing. Without skills there will be no success. And mentality doesn't make your stamina great. Good explosive takes a lot of energy. That's how the physics work.

[@Hingle_McCringleberry87]

What really keeps you relaxed at anything you do is being prepared and knowing what you are doing. If you arent prepared then thats when the tension creeps in.

[@Orabishik-w6v]

Being tense makes you forget to even breath during a sparring session.

[@onceuponatimeintoronto891]

I remember getting my bell rung good in a fight w an asshole who broke into my house yrs back, he had a rep of being a good street fighter and a pretty tough guy who had already been to the Pen in his early 20's, everyone told me to leave it alone he was no joke, the day I ran into him we went at it, he moved like Marciano and hit like a mule, lucky for me I've got a tough head and was a good athlete myself so I didn't freak out, I remember just thinking calm down and avoid those sneaky bolo punches he was very proficient at then getting out to reset, lol. 5 mins later he was winded and bewildered when I was still fresh and standing there and said "thought you wanted to scrap?" blew the blood and snot out of my nose and advanced. He grabbed his torn up shirt and ran down the street w the neighbors yelling "where you going?" he said "I gotta catch a bus!" and ran away. The funniest part was the next day a buddy tells me "his older brother is coming to get you" who was a better scrapper than him. I saw his brother come out the liquor store a yr later in the mall and when he saw I saw him took off and disappeared in the time it took me to turn to my girlfriend and say, "there's that assholes brother." and he was literally gone. We hustled over to where he was by a bunch of pillars and went out to the exit doors 30 ft away and looked in the parking lot but he was long gone in 15 secs. That was how I learned to be patient, breath and stay calm, that and being defiant to not let some punk get the better of me served well after that.

[@adamfreeman2348]

Very good

[@Johnny_Ayers]

Never saw either one of them again after that?

[@onceuponatimeintoronto891]

@Johnny_Ayers nope, never showed his face around me or my friends again when I was around and nobody mentioned him visiting again, figured because I embarrassed his tough guy rep in front of all the guys we mutually knew, before that he was in the area every couple weeks selling his stolen stuff to my buddies and his mother lived 3 blocks up the street lol.

Even if you're coming off of the couch and you haven't trained in years, but you used to fight. If you know how to conserve your energy and not put everything into every shot and every movement, you can go for hours. Normal people who don't know how to conserve themselves usually gas in about 3 minutes or less.

if you're overweight and had no training for years you'll be out of juice really quick no matter your technique and experience

[@daviddelgado475]

Great head of hair, Kind of like the Bee Gees but better. Wish I still had mine, I'd be more calm and relaxed.

[@deathspank9573]

Heres the thing. They say 75% mental, but i disagree. Repetition not only trains your muscles and endurance, it reinforces neural pathways. Training allows for things to be automatic, and when things are automatic they become effortless. You can't just tell an untrained person to remain relaxed in a combat scenario, because even if they manage stress mentally very well, their body is not prepared for the exertion. Energy systems within the body need training, mitochondria are the energy production unit of the body and exercise increases the number of mitochondria. Cardio training changes blood delivery capacity as new capillaries are formed as compensation to the exertion of training. Not to mention repetition reinforcing confidence in the movement to begin with, and confidence playing a big part in being relaxed in the first place. As much as people like to believe the mind controls the body, they fail to realize the body is feeding stimulus to the mind and directly affects it. If your body is in a state of anxiety for whatever reason (maybe you have had poor sleep over decades, and you have a caffeine dependency...) you can be in a completely safe environment, you can mentally rationalize that you are safe but still end up in a state of anxiety. What is of practical use by the advice in the video cannot be ignored however, which is that stress produces cortisol and has negative effects on endurance. Getting stressed is a sure fire way to burn through your energy reserves quickly. But i would rather have a bigger gas tank to go along with the mental edge needed to use it to its full capacity. Its the cherry on top, but not the entire chocolate sundae

[@Godshonestruth]

Great comment. Most wont get it. Its mostly mental but u need to condition the body. Have to. Over and over.

[@Loskov-my3xw]

true. imo For 99% of people their natural state of relaxation is a subconscious and brain-chemistry thing determined by many lifestyle and genetic factors...it can be extremely difficult to change by the time you reach adulthood depending on what has happened growing up. just telling someone to "remember and stay relaxed" in a high stress, high-physicality situation and maybe give them some dubious "breathing techniques" (which if you have to focus on, is simply going to be another factor keeping you from being innately relaxed enough anyway) is not going to make much difference without rigorous training and repeated experience within whatever area they are pursuing. People also have different limits. A lot of folks will never be calm enough to be useful in certain intense situations, or it might take so much out of them they'll never be able to do it regularly. Especially if they are have long-term legit mental health conditions, which we still don't fully know about regarding causes and brain-chemistry. It's very complex stuff. Anyone thinking they've unlocked some magic key by just by telling folk to be aware of how relaxed they are is deluding themselves; if only it were that easy. Worked with plenty of folks that are well aware of their mental state and have lots of techniques to remain calm and it still doesn't make much difference...i can get them to better places in life by setting up exercise routines/lifestyle changes, different types of therapy etc...but they'll never be able to go back into a military situation, or become something like a sportsman in the public eye.

Boxing and thinking man’s game, you have to be calm to keep your stamina up that was George Foreman’s problem in the first part of his career, bad stamina.

[@TheWiktor5566]

I think it was after his return

[@thomashightower7881]

​@@TheWiktor5566 George Foreman never gassed during his return. At least, not like he did during his younger years. He was a lot more methodical with his energy when he was older. I wouldn't even say his stamina was bad during his first part of his career, he was just a lot less conservative with his power. He could sustain a steady flow of haymakers for a good while, but throwing punches at full force every round will gas anyone in a few rounds. Older George was patient enough to see the ends of fights much more often.

[@Bhodisattiva]

First amateur fight I had I almost died of exhaustion (exaggeration) I was soooo tired I even thought about giving up I can’t lie. I was in phenomenal shape but when the fight happened I stopped breathing with my strikes and threw zero jabs only haymakers and this was K1 against a Russian 💀

It's not just about relaxing it's also about focusing and channeling your breathing. Watch Kung fu or tai chi. On the outside it seems soft but internally their under tension. Through focus and breath control they increase endurance exponentially.

[@CourageCombatives]

I’ve found it reliable to practice bringing your awareness to your breathing, then purposely bringing breathing to a rhythmic flow. Body affects mind, mind affects body. Breathing is the bridge between the two. This does require regular practice though. It’s kind of like any other skill- you need to put the time in to develop it. Not saying it will work for everyone, but I’m 52 and this has allowed me to stay in the game and spar very regularly.
