Default Re: training by yourself

Try adding a bit of strength training, I don't know how many times I'm going to say this today, but W/E. Push-ups, sit-ups, different types of squats, etc. It works wonders. Many fighters spend way too much time on weights and don't realize the importance of strength training. It increases speed, and makes the punches connect harder then weights can train you too. For example, do a couple reps of push-ups/explosive push-ups, sit-ups, and jumping squats then try some shadow boxing. Compare the feeling of your limbs to when you use weights and you will have a new basis for improving yourself.
