We put comedian and influencer Renny to the test, challenging him to 30 days of boxing with FightCamp. Over the course of the month, he trained as a true fighter, following a disciplined routine that included proper nutrition and boxing, strength training, and conditioning workouts at home and while on the road.
We’re breaking down his fitness journey and why he calls FightCamp, "calculated discipline."
Meet Renny
Lorenzo Cromwell or Renny, as he likes to call himself, is a comedian, actor, singer, and dancer with roles on shows like Wild 'N Out. Just scroll through his Instagram and you can find content from skits and dances to the occasional workout video, Renny does it all. You won't catch him dying from boredom anytime soon.
Throughout his 30-day boxing training, he put FightCamp through the paces as he had to be on the road traveling. “Thankfully the FightCamp app does not only have workouts that include the bag but also workouts with no equipment needed.” This allowed him to put the work in even while having a packed schedule like his own.
Renny’s 30-Day Challenge
Here is a little overview of how it went for him throughout his month-long challenge using FightCamp.
Day 1
Started off with a 4-round power punch workout
Featured a lot of jabs and hook combinations
Sound Bites: “4 rounds are done, first workout, I can tell this is going to be crazy!”
Day 2
Day 2 already had Renny away from his FightCamp bag
Renny decided to choose the, 4 rounds upper body workout, no equipment needed
The workout featured upper body exercises, punching, and core work
Sound Bites: “Dang! That kicked my butt”
Day 5
Day 5 Renny chose a lower body workout, no equipment needed
The lower body circuit featured a lot of squats, crunches, lunges, and punching
Sound Bites: “Another one in the bag, I’m not as sore as I was on the first day. We gonna keep climbing, let's go!”
Day 7
Earlier on day 7, Renny had another group workout but decided to get some “overtime” exercise in
Back home, he chose a bag lower body workout
Sound Bites: “Ya boy did the trackers this time. Look at the number…I’m gonna try and beat that though. I’m loving the instructors too, they’re really dope. Lego!”
Day 10
Back on the road, traveling doing shows, Renny got a kickboxing workout in, in his hotel room
He chose a no equipment, lower kickboxing circuit featuring squats, lunges, punches, kicks, and knees
Sound Bites: “As the days go by I feel like I’m getting more precise and accurate with my boxer pose, my hooks, uppercuts, slips, blocks…and I’m burning lots of calories along the way.”
Day 12
Workout selection was the core build-up - adding 2 additional rounds from the usual 4
The workout featured a lot of squats, lunge-and-punch combinations, sit-ups, and jumping jacks
The workout was a 2-thumbs up from Renny
Sound Bites: “One thing I love about the trackers is that it adds this competitive spirit where I just wanna top the last amount of punches that I had in my last workout. It’s really motivating!”
Days 13 - 29
Renny put in the work
He was able to use the app for his time while home, during which he could pair his workouts with the bag, as well as on the road with no equipment needed
Sound Bites: “I actually enjoy the trainers!” Here are his top two
Flow Master - “He’s pretty funny and jokes can definitely get me through a workout”
Coach PJ - “He helps push that last bit of effort out of me. He is one of the more aggressive (in a good way) coaches in my opinion.”
Day 30 - Final Day
Renny decided to wrap up his 30-day challenge by choosing a 6-round full-body workout
The full-body circuit had everything including upper body, combo punches, planks, punch combinations, lunges and punches, sit-ups, squats, and superman full-body hold
Sound Bites: “Cut! Last day completed, shoutout to this FightCamp family, shoutout to this bag that will be staying in the same spot, even after the challenge. Shoutout to the trainers, and I’m ready for the next 30, thank you!”
In Renny’s Opinion
“There definitely was some transformation for me during these last few weeks. I noticed that I got a lot more toned. I also developed this love for calisthenic workouts, which only involves my body weight. It’s interesting because I have been having this craving to box because of how easy it is to burn calories while I do it.”
“I would say that training like a boxer improves my life because it involves calculated discipline on the defense, and on the offense. I feel like that same mentality and mindset can be applied to things outside of boxing, at the same time that challenge us as everyday human beings.”
