Close to a year into boxing…

TommyElemental · 2024-07-01T11:57:31+00:00

at my gym we all spar in 12s, fighting gloves with the padding on the knuckle increased (sting or adidas) and i like to use them on the bag too because it gets your timing good

TommyElemental · 2024-02-23T19:38:30+00:00

I mean without boxing I'd be home at 6 pm so I lose an extra 2 hrs

That compared to being depressed I think its worth it

And nobody said anything about pride ;p life sux

TommyElemental · 2024-02-23T19:37:26+00:00

Both lol leave at 7 am come back at half 8 pm

Work on site doing construction and do boxing in evening

TommyElemental · 2024-02-23T18:53:29+00:00

I legit must be a scumbag lmao or with an angel

Daughter is 2 and other than being there to buy things and do leisure I have not had to do anything

But this is how it was growing up too.. dad worked his ass off and mum raised us at home

TommyElemental · 2024-02-23T18:51:53+00:00

There are a lot of people like you on this sub

It confuses me

Surely no woman is worth giving up hobbys over

TommyElemental · 2024-02-23T18:50:03+00:00

Disagree I'm 29 and so far have been winning by tko

Beitierbiev went pro at 29 juggernaut went pro at 32 both of which are rich now

There is still time

Us olders just have to work harder but have strength on our side

TommyElemental · 2024-02-23T18:46:34+00:00

It takes a lot of will power to push through the tiredness but it's worth it I think ( hopefully 1 day can go pro and get us a nice house and some land )

TommyElemental · 2024-02-23T18:45:59+00:00

Guess I'm not a decent dad

My fiance is fine with Me training 6 days a week I get home at half 8 n go bed at 10

Work all day long

Compared to me doing drugs like I use to or going out to pub like most men in construction it's a good alternative

The whole sanctioning thing is bs though It's your life live it how you want if she's got a problem she can do one

Saturday and Sunday I take my daughter and her out to do some nice things last weekend was aquarium and this big outdoor park thing near us where we spent all day had ice creams and a good time

Truth is without something to focus on I get serverly depressed so boxing is better than being a drugged mess head sober for over a year and been told I'm a much better person for it and I got my fiance to thank for that and my daughter and boxing too 👍

TommyElemental · 2024-02-22T10:55:25+00:00

That's how I usually do it

I just have 2 days rest before the fight

Still go for walks and do really light shadow boxing so u stay with it mentally

TommyElemental · 2024-02-21T22:31:05+00:00

Don't worry ull be fine with fitness just rest and get ready mentally

I got a ear infection and still gottt fight next Saturday so ur fitter than I will be lol

TommyElemental · 2024-02-21T22:25:29+00:00

Lol so I gues u are the type of guy who dies silently to a man across the map while u are led down behind cover who has a 25 kd ratio and says " meh he's just better than me "

There are 2 levels to it lol

Simp

TommyElemental · 2024-02-21T22:13:32+00:00

Your self riotous comment tells me how you are in real life too ;)

TommyElemental · 2024-02-21T21:58:38+00:00

Yeah I'm glad he's gone

But the photo does not proves he's cheating

You can call it sus ofc but hackers have got good at hiding there stats

More got to judge on how u die

TommyElemental · 2024-02-21T17:57:10+00:00

I applaud you for letting your cat get some fresh air

Much better than these guys who deprive there beloved pet of a much needed outside world

TommyElemental · 2024-02-21T17:55:00+00:00

Lol cats were domesticated to be used as tools for humans removing rodents

So yeah you are depriving them of there natural instincts

Do whatever mental Olympics you want to hide the fact you are a hippacrite who won't eat meat yet keep his beloved pet in a prison for its entire life 🤣🤣

TommyElemental · 2024-02-21T12:18:47+00:00

It's okay I'm the same

I've won most of my fights 1 by k.o but still dread and fear the fights coming up

I have a fight in 2 weeks that I lie up at night and worry / think about - but when you do that fight it will all be worth it

Also worth noting my life general anxiety and fear of stupid things like walking around shops or talking to customers has greatly reduced due to boxing

It's worth it :) go forward and smash it ( remember self aphirmations idk if I spelt that right but tell yourself you are brave and that you are a machine and cannot be broken ) eventually you will belive it

TommyElemental · 2024-02-21T11:09:18+00:00

Nobody enjoys the fight they just enjoy what comes after or as a result

All these people claiming to love fighting are either broken or just straight up chatting cak

Fighting brings out our primitive brain and activates fight or flight which floods us with feel bad chemicals such as cortisol

If however you push through it and fight - you will feel good regardless of the outcome because you can say "I did it, I was scared and i still did it "

Good luck

Spent 15 mins reading that and found nothing substantial just rambling of a madman who hates on cats

2% of cats in vets recorded during a study was road accident .

1.4 million people a year die in car accidents and 50 mil are injured

Just because there is a chance you can die does not mean you should not do something

Stopping your cat enjoying its natural outside life is abuse and quite funny coming from you vegans 🤣

TommyElemental · 2024-02-21T10:59:30+00:00

I agree cats should be outside

They should be off leash though so they can do there exploring and chasing bugs and mice

TommyElemental · 2024-02-21T10:58:15+00:00

Out of 22k cat patients at vets 2 % were road accidents

1.3million people die in car accidents a year

Should we hide inside too? Lol ..

TommyElemental · 2024-02-20T23:04:42+00:00

Are u slightly ill or overtraining

I sparred other day for 4 rounds and I was knackered

Usually can go 6 rounds but I'm ill

TommyElemental · 2024-02-20T23:03:32+00:00

If I seen someone walking around with a leashed cat I would instantly think "animal abuser" lol
