One of the best things about boxing, or fitness in general, is that you are never too old to start. Some people go their entire adult lives before picking it up, but the benefits of exercise cannot be ignored. So if you're in your 40s, or older, it’s never a bad time to start boxing to help you get fighting fit for the rest of your life.\n\nWhile some people may be hesitant to start combat sports in their later years, people have proven that age is just a number. Bernard Hopkins is the oldest to ever win a major belt in the world of boxing when he won it at the age of 46. George Foreman, just behind him, won the heavyweight belt in boxing at the young age of 45.\n\nBoth men proved that as long as you have the determination and drive to be fit and active, you can do so at any age, and any level.

From there you have 5 options:\n\nPivot out, resetting the drill to the start (avoiding pressure and perhaps taking a better angle on your imaginary opponent)\n\nWeave under to the other side (to avoid hooks)\n\nPull back/sway (good for avoiding uppercuts)\n\nDouble dip (duck further that way to avoid a catch shot, ALWAYS follow this with an immediate big pivot or weave)\n\nThrow a punch (it's important that defense and offense are fluid) \n\nKeep mixing up what side you start on and what options you go to until they all start to flow together and take it slow.

For this drill, the only boxing head movement equipment you’ll need is a long, straight line to follow (preferably tape at least 10-13 feet). Set up your boxing stance on the far end of the line so that each foot is on one side of it with your back to the length of the line. From there, we follow these steps, never letting your feet cross the line.\n\nThe opponent is pressuring with a jab. Slip towards your lead leg, loading up your lead hand.\n\n The opponent tries to catch your slip with a cross. Hop back with a lead check hook, slipping to your rear leg at the same time.\n\nThe opponent tries to smother you. Shuffle step back while throwing a cross (or uppercut), returning your head to a neutral position. \n\nRepeat step 1\n\nThe goal of this is again to train your body to always naturally move your head when you punch, whether going backward or forward. Speaking of forwards, we’ve reached the end of the line, and now have to go back up. Here are the steps for that half of the drill.\n\nYour opponent is holding his ground. step forward behind the jab, slipping to your rear leg (the inside).\n\nThe opponent is retreating but throwing punches. Step forward with a right cross while slipping towards your lead leg, avoiding the opponent’s check jab.\n\nThe opponent tries to hop back. Using that conveniently loaded lead hand, hop forward with a check lead hook while shifting weight back to the rear leg, both catching the opponent off balance and again taking your head far out of harm's way\n\nReturn to neutral and repeat the sequence\n\nThe purpose here is twofold. One is to get you used to one of the most common sequences in all of boxing (1-2-3 or 1-2 smother). The other is to train your body to constantly be in motion whether on offense or defense. It is far easier to adjust a body that is already moving than it is to move a body that is standing still.","How do you do a boxing line drill?\n",{"name":233,"created_at":234,"published_at":235,"updated_at":236,"id":237,"uuid":238,"content":1091,"slug":233,"full_slug":253,"sort_by_date":48,"position":254,"tag_list":1103,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":57,"meta_data":48,"group_id":256,"first_published_at":257,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":1104,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":240,"name":241,"category":1092,"component":39,"meta_info":1100,"block_image":1101,"cover_image":1102,"internal_notes":7},{"name":140,"created_at":141,"published_at":142,"updated_at":143,"id":144,"uuid":145,"content":1093,"slug":140,"full_slug":325,"sort_by_date":48,"position":55,"tag_list":1098,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":135,"meta_data":48,"group_id":327,"first_published_at":328,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":1099,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":147,"name":148,"topics":1094,"component":118,"meta_info":1095,"meta_title":7,"block_image":1096,"cover_image":1097,"internal_notes":7,"meta_description":7},[156,184,211,238,265,292],{"_uid":315,"title":316,"plugin":43,"description":317},{"id":319,"alt":320,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":320,"filename":321,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":323,"alt":320,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":320,"filename":324,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],{"_uid":243,"title":244,"plugin":43,"description":245},{"id":247,"alt":248,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":248,"filename":249,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":251,"alt":248,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":248,"filename":252,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],"efb09565-d096-488b-8f7f-7e80e6045b1d",{"type":749,"content":1107},[1108,1113,1133,1138,1143,1147,1181,1185,1190,1200,1220,1224,1229,1233,1259,1263,1289,1293,1298,1310,1314,1324],{"type":762,"attrs":1109,"content":1110},{"level":764},[1111],{"text":1112,"type":756},"How to Get Better Head Movement in Boxing",{"type":752,"content":1114},[1115,1117,1124,1126,1131],{"text":1116,"type":756},"Head movement in boxing is one of the most impressive aspects of a boxing match.

Do you need rest days?\n\nThe general guidelines for the United States are 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic physical activity weekly or 20 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity. This recommendation comes down to 22 minutes daily or 30 minutes 5 days a week considered the bare minimum. You can divide the time across your week to make it work with your schedule. Instead of looking at an exact amount of physical activity daily, think about being active daily. Human beings are meant to move, not to sit in a chair or couch for hours at a time and according to the CDC, 25% of Americans are not active enough to protect their health.","How often should you work out?",{"_uid":2059,"answer":2060,"question":2061,"component":670},"51de9260-c4d3-4665-a62e-6514a3cbd5d4","On the opposite end of the spectrum, whether you've always been active or are a recovering couch potato, working out 5-6 days a week is recommended and should be a mixture of strength, skill, and cardiovascular exercise. Variety in the types of training will be helpful to you, so don’t just box six days a week. Choose different activities, like kickboxing, core conditioning, or a full-body workout. Our society is fixated on working out and high-intensity interval training, but too much of anything can harm your well-being. You don’t need to kick your butt every day to see results. Overtraining is a real thing, and the National Academy of Sports Medicine has a few exercise-related symptoms of overtraining:\n\n-A plateau or decline in workout performance or progress\n-A perception of increased exertion during “normal” or “easy” workouts\n-Excessive sweating or overheating\n-Unusual feelings of heaviness, stiffness, or muscle soreness\n-A lack of feeling “refreshed” after regular rest and recovery\n-Recurrent injuries include muscle sprains, tendonitis, stress fractures, and chronic joint pain\n-A decline in enthusiasm for exercise (or skipping or quitting workouts) \n\nThese are just some examples of what happens when you overtrain. Still, they’re not limited to poor sleep, increased resting heart rate/blood pressure, mood swings, persistent fatigue, or low energy. The seven points shared above are subjective but should not be taken lightly. If these symptoms last longer than two months, please consult your physician as soon as possible. Managing your exercise variety and training days can be done within the FightCamp App or an old-school written journal. Once in a while, look back and celebrate how far you have come in your journey. Ensure you remain consistent with healthy nutrition and good sleep hygiene or consider a “work-in.”","What are the signs of overtraining?",{"_uid":2063,"answer":2064,"question":2065,"component":670},"5277bb14-a36a-4af3-aec1-75bd9315ef4d","Working inwards, or active rest/recovery, will balance the traditional workouts with activities you might need or not usually associate with active recovery or active rest. The following activities can be performed on a “work-in” day and stimulate body and mind while not moderate to vigorous exercising. Foam rolling, stretching, learning to juggle, gratitude walks, playing an instrument, swimming, learning how to salsa dance (shout out to Aaron and Flo), or meditation are some examples of “work-in.” Make sure to monitor sleep for recovery; 7-8 hours of consistent bedtime sleep has been proven to help restore your body and leave you feeling refreshed.\n\nDoing absolutely nothing is not beneficial to your wellness. In 2016, researchers found “that low or no leisure physical activity was associated with greater decline in processing speed and episodic memory.” Consider that when you learn new skills, your brain benefits from them; think about when your FightCamp Trainers teach you new combinations. Learning a new skill has been proven to form new neurological connections, “since aerobic exercise is associated with increased neurogenesis in humans, integration of these new brain cells requires newness and challenge.”\n\nThe benefits your body reaps from your “work-in” aren’t exclusive to rest and recovery alone. Exercising improves the function of your brain, body, and lifespan. A variety of activities and a high level of physical activity decrease the shrinking of your hippocampus, the part of your brain associated with learning and memory. Taking action means that the diversity of your choices directly impacts your brain function and overall fitness. Suppose you’ve watched the FightCamp Trainers. In that case, they enjoy various activities, such as dancing, longboarding, dad jokes, and long walks on the beach. The FightCamp App provides everything you need to be as diverse as possible. When you want to “rest,” please consider doing something to help you be a better FightCamp fighter and a healthier human being.

Working Out at Home\nThe wonderful thing about working out from home is that it offers numerous benefits. Being able to do it whenever you want, day or night, no waiting in line to use gym equipment, no commute to and from, the list goes on. Sometimes home workouts can have the exact opposite effect.\n\nThis typically arises because we are most comfortable in our own homes. Once we are done with the work day and back at home, it's all too easy to get comfortable and not want to get up and start that workout. So, how do you manage this?\n\nSet aside time - Set aside specific times each day for exercise, making sure to block off calendars if it’s during the middle of the day, or carve out 20/30 minutes before or after work. That time is protected and you made plans for it.\n\nTurn up the media - Really not feeling it? Blast some of your favorite pump-up jams or listen to a motivational speech or podcast.\n\nJust start - Sometimes the hardest part is just starting, but once you get going, it's easier to find the drive along the way. Remember, nobody ever regretted finishing a workout. \n\n2. Staying Committed to Exercising Daily\nSometimes it's not that we lack the motivation to work out, sometimes it is the motivation to work out consistently. That’s not to say that you have to work out seven days a week, 365 days a year, but staying adherent to consistency long-term leads to lifestyle changes. \n\nSo how can you find the motivation to exercise daily? Simple. Have active rest days. Active rest days can be utilized on a consistent basis to incorporate daily movement into your life, without overtaxing the body and nervous system. Here are some options to include on active rest days that have been shown to have numerous health benefits.\n\n-Outdoor walks/hikes in nature\n-Easy pace swims\n-Sauna sessions\n-Low-intensity yoga\n-Mobility work \n-Stretching\n\n3. Morning Workouts Before Starting the Day\nOne of the best ways to ensure that you get your workout in for the day is to do it before work or before the kids are up. Sometimes, that is easier said than done. Your bed ends up becoming too comfy and getting out from under the covers seems like a real struggle; the motivation becomes non-existent. Here's how to do it.\n\nGetting into a good morning routine starts the night before in the evening time. This means developing a routine that becomes a habit. \n\n-Turning off electronics the last hour\n-Sleeping in a blacked-out environment\n-Getting to bed at the same time each night\n-Set out your workout clothes the night before\n\nSimply incorporating a few key disciplines each night can help ensure you fall asleep quickly and get the most out of each sleep session. Then, when the alarm rings at 5 a.m. to get up for your workout, you’ll feel refreshed and ready to take on that 20 minute H.I.I.T. session.\n\n4. End-of-Day Workouts\nWhile working out before work or taking the kiddos to school may be ideal for some, it may not be an option for others. So the only option is to work out post office hours. This can sometimes be a pitfall for motivational levels. You just put in an eight or more hour day, and now you need to find the energy to work out. How do you now find motivation when you don't want to work out?\n\nHere are a couple of ways to help you get that motivation for working out at the end of the day.\n\nMake it a priority - The excuses are easy to find once you’ve put in a full day's worth of work. The truth of the matter usually comes down to not wanting it bad enough. Finding your reason “why” you work out or have certain goals can certainly help when the motivation is not there. \n\nDo it right away - The reason most fail with post-work exercise is that we get too comfy. Here is how you can combat that. Once you immediately get home from work/finish working remotely, don’t unwind just yet, get into those gym clothes, turn on your fitness app, and start your workout. \n\nFamily first - Other times it literally is not feasible to work out immediately following your nine-to-five. Some have to pick up kids, make dinner, help with homework, etc. That’s totally understandable. Here is that workaround. \n\nOnce the kids have gone to sleep and it has been at least an hour or 2 since you’ve eaten dinner, use that time for yourself and for your workout. You’ll feel great by ending the day with a sweat session and it will help you sleep better too!","How can you get motivated to work out?",{"name":260,"created_at":261,"published_at":262,"updated_at":263,"id":264,"uuid":265,"content":2524,"slug":260,"full_slug":280,"sort_by_date":48,"position":281,"tag_list":2536,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":57,"meta_data":48,"group_id":283,"first_published_at":284,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":2537,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":267,"name":268,"category":2525,"component":39,"meta_info":2533,"block_image":2534,"cover_image":2535,"internal_notes":7},{"name":140,"created_at":141,"published_at":142,"updated_at":143,"id":144,"uuid":145,"content":2526,"slug":140,"full_slug":325,"sort_by_date":48,"position":55,"tag_list":2531,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":135,"meta_data":48,"group_id":327,"first_published_at":328,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":2532,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":147,"name":148,"topics":2527,"component":118,"meta_info":2528,"meta_title":7,"block_image":2529,"cover_image":2530,"internal_notes":7,"meta_description":7},[156,184,211,238,265,292],{"_uid":315,"title":316,"plugin":43,"description":317},{"id":319,"alt":320,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":320,"filename":321,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":323,"alt":320,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":320,"filename":324,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],{"_uid":270,"title":271,"plugin":43,"description":272},{"id":274,"alt":275,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":275,"filename":276,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":278,"alt":275,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":275,"filename":279,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],{"type":749,"content":2539},[2540,2545,2559,2573,2578,2582,2587,2591,2629,2633,2638,2642,2646,2651,2655,2660,2674,2678,2698,2703,2707,2711,2769,2774,2778,2782,2808,2822,2827,2831,2835,2861,2865,2870,2874,2878,2888],{"type":762,"attrs":2541,"content":2542},{"level":764},[2543],{"text":2544,"type":756},"How to Stay Motivated to Work Out",{"type":752,"content":2546},[2547,2549,2557],{"text":2548,"type":756},"Motivation is a fleeting entity.
