Question
I am 15 and i was about to join boxing, but i had to be 16, so im going to join in november. Untill then i want to get fit for boxing, so that i can start sparring before 6 months. is there any advise that you can give that might get me a headstart? i also got a book on boxing so i can get an idea about basic punches. I dont have much money or a punching, i have some weights. is there anyway to train cardio except running?
If this might help, im about 110 pounds, 15 years old, 5'6

Answer
Adel, running , push-ups , dips, abs and just start conditioning. What book did you buy to learn with ? Go to the library , the books are free. that is where i started. My e-mail is absolutetraining!aol.com and email me with any questions you have ! I have videos on youtube and myspace and they are linked off my personal site.
