What do you conisder as good an what are trying to achieve?
i want to confidently hold my own against anyone, win or lose. and to not doubt anything im doing in the process. even if its against someone whose boxed for a few years

i was wondering if there was anyway to expedite the process of getting better with an advantageous drill

From what I understand, after 6 months you can dog most people.

You shouldn’t have a problem finding a good gym. Best way to tell if a gym is legit or not is by asking when you will be able to spar. If they say anything less than at least 3-4 months of consistent training the gym is trash imo. Of course there’s exceptions if you nice. The couple gyms I’ve trained at over the years required 6 months.

It’s so you won’t get killed :russ:

Stamina is everything breh :dame:
