[@BPrinz776]

From the skipping part of that video, you lost me Dr Mike. The isolated drill with the ball is to focus on pushing your opponent with your hands so you can stop the opponent from pressing in the ring and keep distance. The ab work is not full motion as in the ring you need to stay in a certain range of trunk flexion as well. Every exercise is VERY specific for every situation in the ring. This tells me his coaches are actually REALLY good and wasting no range of motion for stuff that is not useful in the ring.

[@chriscotton4207]

😂 now while I agree and I do box Dr Mike also does compete with Jiu-Jitsu so he is familiar with combat supports overall. It also doesn't mean that he doesn't know the kinesiology behind the sport which is in fact where his doctor degree is from. He doesn't have to understand boxing to understand how to train for it. It sure does help but I'm sure he's figured it out by now. The only thing that I believe you might have to understand with partial reps. Boxers need to be explosive from every specific angle not just the deep angles.

I think a lot of Floyd's training is also structured around him having fights during the evening. So that's why he also trains in the evenings and wakes up later so his body is used to the routine.

[@jerppazz4525]

you can be awake and not train, nor would you want to wake up close to a fight. better way would be to wake up early and not train until evening. which is why i doubt thats the reason for it.

[@rockyevans1584]

​@jerppazz4525 better way for who? If you're up 8 or 10 hours before your event you aren't going to be tired. I'm sure he structures his day around when he feels best

[@shaqitup]

@@jerppazz4525 it’s probably a part of the reason. If he wakes up at 230, he is likely up until 430-630 if he’s sleeping 8-10 hours. When he fights he’s usually fighting from 1130-1230 time range. I get the premise but he’s likely staying up 4-5 hours after when he would anticipate to fight.

Agree with most of what you say except for the skipping, boxers skip differently. It's about footwork, footspeed and coordination, it's really not about flashy moves and impressing people. Those cross-overs and double unders serve a specific purpose of training footwork. It's a part of the sport-specific training, it's not really about building cardio or fitness (though yes it does some of that too.)

What he says about skipping is completely accurate, skipping for footwork is never going to be as specific or transferable as actually boxing. It's no different to soccer players using agility ladders, it looks flashy but at the end of the day it's almost entirely a waste of time.

[@trinidad510]

The person who made that video you were reacting to had no idea what they were talking about in terms of Floyd's power. Floyd was known as a high action power puncher in the first half of his career (at 130 and 135), he had close to a 90% KO rate through his first 30 fights, what happened was Floyd jumped up in weight and at 147 and 154 he was fighting opponents that weighed 20-30 lbs more than him, thats why he stopped KOing his opponents, it's because they were way bigger than him. The hand breaks for sure played a role but the biggest factor was that, like most fighters, Floyd's power lessened as he moved up in weight, but the biggest factor was that Floyd didn't cut weight so he would weigh in at 147 and was still 147 the day of the fight, while his opponents would weigh in at 147 or 154 and the next day would be 175 which made Floyd completely changed the way that he fought and become much more defensive because he was so much smaller than his opponents

[@richardcourtney1424]

Stop LYING he did not fight fighters way bigger than him. He was to scared to lose. Even though he LOST the first fight to Castillo. They stole the fight. He did win the second fight against Castillo

[@trinidad510]

@@richardcourtney1424 how is anything I said a lie? I never brought up any losses or wins, that's not the point of the comment. Secondly yes he lost the first Castillo fight, who cares, that happens in boxing.

Another factor to that is that Floyd's hands were apparently quite fragile and are prone to breaking - an apparent Mayweather family curse from what I hear. So on top of the weight jump and having to deal with weight bullies there's that.

I did some heavy bag training and went from 16oz gloves to just wraps and now nothing on my hands. Yes you go through a period of your knuckles bleeding, sores and scabs, but also your wrist as well. But after a couple months of proper training and rest I can go to a heavy bag and do 10-15 mins of training without pain or sores. It forces you to better your technique or you’ll constantly get hurt.

[@christianperez4921]

[@TheDevilLine6]

@@largelampard3721 I mean yeah don’t do it if the person has weak wrists or terrible technique. I get it some people can’t punch a bag without hurting themselves, that’s why you have to properly train your hands/wrists to do that exercise. It helps condition your fists, correct any form deficiency and teaches that person how to properly punch. For my routine I usually go 45mins with 16oz gloves. 10mins of wraps and 10-15mins of bare knuckle training. At that point I’m probably using 60% of my strength and focused on how my hands are connecting to the bag. At that point you’re relying off your muscles to hold your wrists together under force.

I would like to see you break down a sprinter's workout. (100m/200m/400m) One of the things I would like to hear you speak on is their emphasis on the concentric. I have heard Allyson Felix talk about avoiding the eccentric to avoid hypertrophy.

[@DjDolHaus86]

Also sprint cyclists. Those guys are built like tanks yet they can sustain huge power outputs for a really long time

[@319jmp]

The Eccentric is responsible for creating the most damage to the muscle fibers. By athletes avoiding the eccentric or doing exercises that do not have an eccentric load, you can increase work and therefore work capacity without creating unnecessary extra damage. Pushing and pulling a sled is an example of this.

[@EffectiveMuscle]

This all makes sense, honestly.

[@notreallyzekai3474]

He would see an olympic sprinter doing a 3x body weight quarter squat and say “zero because that is not full rom” not realizing not everybody trains to maximize hypertrophy. Or see them doing fast eccentrics and say something like “slow down the eccentric portion” or some dumb shit

[@319jmp]

@@notreallyzekai3474 This is silly. Its even more important for performance athletes to train full ROM then for aesthetic athletes. And yes those same athletes would benefit from a controlled eccentric as well, as long as their concentric remains explosive.

[@atts9587]

Bro one thing to touch on is the skipping, if you watch his skipping compilations, you can tell he has the skill of skipping maxed out. One of the best skipping endurance and skill wise. As a boxer I can skip for days but skipping is about changing levels, up and down the speed and the way he uses skipping skills with changing pace + ankle weights, it's really not easy.

[@aquratv1738]

Dr. Mike is saying that Mayweather is an elite athlete, so most of his punching endurance is already coming from his crazy boxing routine. He already maxed out his gains from years of half pushups. Adding more half pushups (1000+) won't increase his endurance and strength gains anymore. It just makes him more efficient at half pushups. Weighted pushups, proper form, varied styles of pushups, or going harder at boxing endurance workouts would move the needle more than 1000+ pushups.

US states) have a lot of straight borders that were drawn on a map upon division (geographical features would still be used when it made too much sense or if wars between the neighbours resulted in territorial gains). - Chad is Chad-shaped (this is more of a meme fact though) - Italy is boot-shaoed - Romania is fish-shaped - Austria looks like a stingray - Tajikistan is deer-shaped - Croatia is trying to eat up Bosnia & Herzegovina - Senegal is almost finished with eating Gambia - Nordic countries are fun: Sweden + Finland look like a flacid cock (Sweden) + scrotum (Finland), Norway + Sweden look like an ejaculating cock + balls, the Fennoscandian Peninsula looks like a dog

9:33 there is no much carryover from pushing to punching. Punching is an explosive, unilateral, transverse plane, full-body movement. You need hip rotators (glutes, addictors, abductors) and spine rotators (mostly lats) for that.

[@kristo7184]

I think it is better than 1381 push ups tho 😂

[@zacharylaschober]

there is plenty of "carryover" depending on the limiting factor in the punch and the prioritization. Tremendous volume of pushing over the skill of punching is ridiculous, but you can do the skill and include some supplementary training to help improve the parts the skill cannot. He should not only bench press to get better at boxing, but he definitely should not do randomly large yet oddly specific numbers of a press as this would be likelier to cause him to regress due to fatigue and injury.

[@nikolaisalikov1257]

[@nikolaisalikov1257]

@@zacharylaschober Even most of weightlifters do not bench. Not because bench is useless, but because it's actively harmful for overhead athletes. For the same reason throwers (boxers are throwers by the way) do not bench too. If you are interested, you can for example check Eric Cressey, who is New York Yankees' director of health and player performance. And once again: throwing/punching is an EXPLOSIVE UNILATERAL FULL-BODY ROTATIONAL pattern, which has little to do with BILATERAL UPPER BODY PUSHING. Yes, upper body pushing strength can help to some extent, but not much. Do you know why pecs and triceps do not get tired in boxing fights? Because they do not work much.

Dr. Mike I disagree with your criticism about range of motion, Floyd seems to be pushing medicine balls and doing push ups in the range of motion where his punches would land - please explain the point of dropping deep into the push-up to reach failure if the person's goal is to throw hundreds of punches at an extended position?? Is full range of motion really better than training in the applicable range of motion? I'd like to add that Floyd had to make a particular weight and can't afford unnecessary muscle that he won't use during a fight, because in my opinion it would just add unnecessary weight and burn more energy.

I know apparently studies say that it’s really bad for you in the long run, but I also think that it depends a bit on the person.

While climbers are often attentive to injuries to the hand, and we can begin some programming for more appropriate load and volume to the fingers, I expect with boxing there could be repeated stress to growing bone which presents as general discomfort from punching and is therefore not attended to. Could make him more susceptible to stress fractures in the metacarpals or similar, but more susceptible compared to another professional boxer meaning simply some slight attention to this in the programming than a need to box in a different manner.

7:00 Correct statement, I quit bodybuilding 8 years ago; I went back in a few months ago (about three months ago), and I'm already physically about half to where I was when I quit, and it is way easier than the first time. I notice a quick and weekly muscle growth. Muscle memory is incredibly powerful; it's almost like I was running a cycle, which I never did. I went from normal to jacked in about three months, like one of those bullshit ads. My main problem now is to avoid being too swift with progressive overload, as I quickly regain strength, but my joints and connective tissues must adapt, and they take more time than muscles do to adapt to that new demand. If you have quit for a long time, and if you were jacked before quitting, and you don't want to go back into the gym because you think it would be too much work like the first time, then don't be afraid; it will come back really quick. Especially if, in the meantime, you stayed interested in bodybuilding and learned about it. My technique drastically improved because I'm now 8 years older, interested in those "geeky shit" about bodybuilding, more than I already was back then, less prone to feel embarrassed about not being big enough, no more bigorexic in a sense. I matured well, and you probably do too. Just give it a go, you'll not regret it.
