      @Clay_j_Bray From a scientific stand point they were burning themselves out, that's too much wear & tear on the body & not enough for healing & recovering. Men's testosterone level are lower today because of the foods & drinks being consumed, the environment of the world (wanting to de-masculate men & make them feminine), & the fact that jobs are not as physically demanding cause they have technology to do it or help them do it.

    Everyone used to train similarly in all sports because they didn’t have that much weights. I love rowing or riding a bike. That’s fluid resistance. You’re trying to do work traveling through a fluid. I love the bike because it’s the opposite of lifting weights. A heavier bike doesn’t make a difference. You just go into a higher gear or spin faster to produce more power and work. After a certain of building a base of muscle on your frame you’re just adding load to your bones and joint. If you do that on a bike you start to bend the frame and stretch the chain and it slows you down. And you’re doing it with your muscles. Most likely that’s what starts happening to your body because your skeleton is like the bike frame.
    They do it for fighting and football but if I slam a bike on your head and bend it it’s no longer a good bike. It only matters if you’re gambling in the sport for imaginary returns.

HE DANCES AROUND THEM WAITING FOR THEM TO SLOW DOWN, THEN HE GOES BACK ON THE OFFENSE WITH POUNCING. USING SPEED AND AGGRESSION. HE HAD THE ENERGY AND CONDITIONING TO DO THAT.. BUT HE HAD NOTHING ELSE .... THIS WAS HIS THING. HIS SKILL SET. IT WASNT SO MUCH HOW GOOD HE WAS, IT WAS THAT ALL THE GUYS HE FOUGHT DID NOT HAVE THOSE SKILLS OR ABILITIES..

    This is the real training of the great Sugar Ray Robinson.He ran 5-10 miles a day, 6 days a week. Not 2-3 miles. He didn't eat process foods. Also, he was celibate. He understood that obtaining from sex gave him a big amount of energy and helped him fight like a warrior. He learned this from Joe Louis and Jack Blackburn. They taught him good habits. He skipped rope between 20-40 minutes. Later in the day, he did tap dancing, which really made his footwork one of a kind im the ring. It gave him rhythm. Other than that, you got everything else right. He did all the calisthenics.

    • @BoxingLife
      @BoxingLife  5 днів тому +1

      I’ve did so much research into for this and after reading 2 books for this video and looking at shit load of Achieve articles. No where did I find he ran 10
      Miles a day, only 5 miles at most. Maybe he did it on occasion. The tap dancing wasn’t necessarily every day. He said to have done it, but I highly doubt he would do this all the time. He did go out for walks though or just relax listening to music reading etc . I did cover about why he abstained from sex as-well. I did struggle to find information on exact calisthenic exercises. He did say he focused mainly on his core. Plus things like neck bridges similar to Tyson. But he always talked about doing calisthenics.

I get my research from old heads and my grandfather who actually saw Robinson in his prime. I'm a boxer myself btw. Ray Robinson learned how to tap dance by a man name Howard Sims aka the sandman which you can look up on UA-cam. Tap dancing he did in the evenings. These were one of his hobbies. The sandman, I qoute " I taught sugar ray how to dance. After i taught him, nobody could beat him."
