I want to become more of a man, should I get into boxing?
Has anyone here ever boxed? I assume you just find a boxing gym and turn up for an introductory session right?

Women box too, fag.
i would suggest learning the absolute basics before going to a boxing gym and trying to get yourself in. there are many tutorials on youtube that can really help you out
though, if you want to become more of man, and you dont really love boxing, i think it would be much better for you to give yourself an exercise and healthy living regimen. there are DEFINITELY many videos on how to start that on youtube. you dont necessarily have to box to be healthy and know how to fight. if i had to give you the advice on how to start it, i would tell you to start with cutting out very obviously unhealthy foods, and bodyweight exercises, such as pushups, squats, beginner stuff, etc. and work your way from there
would i go to /fit/ for that? i dont know

But boxing is still very manly isn't it.

Are you saying this from your own boxing experience?
>bodyweight exercises, such as pushups, squats, beginner stuff, etc. and work your way from there
Obviously.
I'm wondering more about boxing itself though, what it's like starting out.

I started boxing at my university back in September, and it's been great.
Would definitely recommend it, OP.
Learning some basics before going in isn't a bad idea, but most coaches will be happy to help you even if you don't know anything.
Happy to answer any other questions you have, OP.

Awesome thanks anon
I assume you just turned up to an introductory session then? And I assume since it's uni, there were lots of others in the same boat
Did you just start by being taught the fundamentals? How to make a fist, how to throw a punch, how to put your arms up etc? How long was it before you were sparring?

Boxing is great. i used to box and hit people, then i started hitting the bottle
I highly recommend it
