I want to take boxing lessons. Has anyone here done this? My gym has trainers who supposedly trained people for the olympic team... or trained with them, something like that.
Anyone here ever trained for boxing? Anyone ever done competition, like golden gloves or anything like that?
I can't say I want to enter a competition, but in the back of my mind it would be awesome if I got good enough. Unrealistic though, considering I'd be starting out at 25 years old, despite being pretty athletic. I'm definitely not looking to do this to get in shape, I already lift, run and bike for that. I'm more interested in really learning to box, and hopefully being able to at least spar.
What are the options for someone like me? How do you find people to spar with?
