I compete in Masters boxing tournaments. I'm 55 6'1" 189 and I use 2 mile hard runs for most of my roadwork. Three times a week. If I can constantly do them under 8min per mile I know I'm fight ready. Basically 16 minutes of pain
These are really useful routines! And a great reminder of different ways to utilize the environment. And by coincidence, I was just doing research on red light therapy this morning for some back pain.
Gabrielle, are you saying you do these runs on top of your fight training and lifting weights during camp? Madman. No wonder your cardio is off the charts. My routine has essentially been 3 minute unsustainable pace on the aerodyne bike with 1 minute rest for a total of about 30-45 minutes. I would do that once a week and normal pace 5km runs 2-3 times a week. Although it was effective, I did always feel that my cardio never really sky rocketed with this routine.
He's a pro fighter, what do you expect? Building cardio for a fight is no joke. He said in the other video that he believes in training right after waking up, so he probably goes for a run in the morning, just like Thai fighters do.
Thank you for another great video 🙏🏻 Do you have different running routines for off camp and fight camp times ? You mentioned in another video, that you cut your training volume by 50% in off camp !?
interesting stuff I'll see if I can incorporate it into my routines, my roadwork is fairly simple but I think it gets the job done light stretch 5 min light jog 1 mile light stretch 5 min choose a circuit 1.5 miles for speed/intensity 3.7 mile circuit focusing on maintaining a pace Currently I'm nowhere near my best times but my last two runs were pretty good 9:19 for the 1.5 and 26:14 for the 3.7
I made the mistake of doing a steady pace of miles a day like pro boxers do not realizing that kickboxing and even amateur boxing (which I was doing at the time) was waaaayyy different and more fast paced right out the gate than 12 rounds of pro boxing. I should’ve been doing more hill sprints and upping the intensity in short intervals. Like Gabriel said pushing through those uncomfortable feelings is more like a fight than just comfortably running at a steady pace for a longer distance
I didnt even get past 6.5 minutes into the video and went ahead and ordered one. Hoping I benefit from the sporadic decision. Currently the belt is $130 with discount code.
If I run 5 days like you for Muay Thai fight prep, what routines do you recommend? Would you repeat one of these 3 routines or do something different? So far I'm doing the 4k run once, two sprint days, and hill sprints (10 sec up, walk down, only have a small hill available in Bangkok). For the last run I was thinking either a second 4km run or a lower pace 5km.
Hi gab, can you do what makes Manny Pacquiao so good? It's just fascinating to see pacman broke alot of "boxing rules" but makes them work, thank you:))
As someone who uses endurance running as him main (practically only) form of exercise, I think a lot of people think you have to run hours at a time to get "real" cardio benefits. Nope. Unless you're training for a running event, most people would get amazing benefits just running 3-4 times a week going to more than 2-3 miles at any one time, maybe toss in a 5-miler once in a while. Consistency is the key. With your sprint and hill workouts, you're ready to run a 5k! :)
If you run 3 times per week and use each routine once
you WILL be in fight shape.
After you've done the sprinting lengths and jogging widths how many best effort laps do you do?
im 30 years old do you think i can be a pro kickboxer in the future or i missed the train

@@doitrightfreestyler if you train everyday you could get a few pro fights by 35

Thank you for sharing your knowledge!🫵😊
I love the 4k run mentality. Whenever I'm running or hiking I tell myself
"I didn't come out here to be comfortable!"

Hey Gabriel can you pleaseee break down Yair Rodriguez. I’ve been watching your videos everyday and it’s been such a pleasure man ❤️
In the words of Chael, Ya-yeer.
Ever considered putting an infrared sauna in your home?
You should drop your favorite play list for running 🏃♂️
Is it possible to increase your cardio just by jumping the rope, shadowboxing or hitting the heavy bag? I really hate to run
interesting stuff I'll see if I can incorporate it into my routines, my roadwork is fairly simple but I think it gets the job done
light stretch 5 min
light jog 1 mile
light stretch 5 min
choose a circuit
1.5 miles for speed/intensity
3.7 mile circuit focusing on maintaining a pace

I also got it. 200€ or something.
Did you notice any lasting improvements?
I didn't, just a very short term relief, due to the warmth, I believe...
@salciano that's about it. Still helps loosen the back up some days before training

Did you ever think your body healed naturally over that period of time?
Love this info! Will get to work on it hahaha
You're really running 400 meters multiple times at a 1 minute pace after doing ten sets of sprints?
I knew it! He's actually Agent Smith

Any suggestions on running shoes mr. Varga?
