I'm going to a new boxing gym this spring time. I want to know how many hours an day, how many days of the week will it take me to look like I been training like 1 or 2 years or more? The reason I'm asking is because my old trainer told me that he was impress, because it looked like I been training for years but only for a couple of months when he told me that and I figure if I train harder I will become pro around 18 or 20.

Who cares what the heck you LOOK like? Anyone can look like Muhammed Ali on the heavy bag or shadow boxing....
However, if you are serious about fighting, then you should be in the gym 6 days a week for 2-3 hours a pop.
If you're not serious about fighting, then it renders everything else moot. -

I care, cause if I'm able to move like a boxer who has been training for years I can turn pro in 1 or 2 years n not anyone can look like Muhammed Ali on the heavy bag or shadow boxing.Comment

You're missing my point. "LOOKING" like a fighter is inconsequential! Actually putting in the work to become a fighter is what your concern should be.
Again, anyone can look like Muhammed Ali in the gym. What matters is what you can do once you step inside the ring. You are insisting that you want to turn pro in a year or two. To acheive that, you need to put in serious work!
Six days a week in the boxing gym, 2 - 3 our each boxing workout. Run during the day a minimum of 4 days a week, averaging 2 miles each time. You should also lift weights and do other conditioning work outside of the boxing gym.Comment

God this is a stupid post. Want to look good?! Stand in front of your mirror and throw punchs and throw your hair back after you dump a bottle of water on it and there!
TRAIN AS MUCH AS YOU CAN! I dont see what youre asking, hit the gym 6 days a week if you can. Train atleast once a week.
This is such a stupid post...Comment

I think he's saying he looks like a boxer in the ring. (I could be totally wrong) but I think he's saying when people see him in the ring they think he's had more training than he has had.
Now if he's talking about body dimensions then this is a stupid post.Comment

ExcessiveForce is almost right. I want to know how much training I need to do to become a pro boxer in a short time. I told you the story to show you how much experience I had in only 5 months. Srry I wasnt clear. If you still dont understand ask me again.Comment

Incase someone ask me why I have the same post in more than one in forum jump. The reason is because those are the most popular forums in this site, so I want to hear more opinion about the topic.Comment

OK, I understand what you're getting at now. Your original post/question wasn't real clear.
But anyway, the message is simple. If you really want to turn pro in the next 2 years, you've gotta put in some SERIOUS work! When I was fighting, I was training up to 3 different times a day. A midday run (2 miles or more, usually, for about 40 - 60 min's total with warmup, stretcing, and changing clothes accounted for 'cause I was on my lunch break at work), and early afternoon workout lifting (45 - 90 min's depending on the day), and an evening workout for MuayThai and/or Boxing (2 hours, usually).
Good LuckComment

Oh...wow I totally didnt understand that post. Anyways, Khun is right. Pro boxer or kickboxer? or MMA? (youre in all the forums sections so I dunno). Hit the weights 3 times a week. Do martial arts (whichever youre working on) 3 times a week. Run a few miles everyday you dont train in martial arts. Take one day off to rest.
Also, if youre at a boxing gym. Ask around if some older guys could give you some tips and such. Theyre usually awesome for good tips. You say youre under 18 so Im guessing driving will be a problem. If you can though, go to other gyms once and a while too, cross training is great.
Like I said though, most people dont go pro at anything till thier 20's. Keep training hard. If you need anything else just ask.

Just as Kru Miller said, train, train and train. If you want an example of a serious regimen, go to www.lannamuaythai.com and peek at their sessions. The Thai's have killer training programs, but then again that is why they do not have nerves anymore. Make sure you devote time to sparring. Myself, I wasn't born with the fighter ability, and I spent way too long on skills on the bag and pads. I looked awesome in the gym, and had a lot of guys intimidated. But, once I started sparring, all that changed and I had to learn how to apply the techniques I was so good at. It all changes once the real stuff flies back at you.Comment
