Establish Your Baseline\\nStarting with a lighter weight and seeing how many reps and sets you can do will give you an idea of your baseline fitness level, helping you set personal goals.\\n\\n2. Track Your Progress and Stay Motivated\\nSticking with that weight and number of reps and sets allows you to evaluate your progress so you know when to level up and increase the weight or number of reps and/or sets. It can also keep you motivated to finish out the number of full sets in your workout, even when you feel like quitting. You know what you are capable of!\\n\\n3. Prevent Injury\\nKnowing your fitness level so you can make realistic goals for your reps and sets will prevent overtraining and possible injury.\\n\\n4. Build Muscle\\nThe foundation of strength training is science. Performing reps and sets triggers the muscles to increase strength under controlled conditions in much the same way your muscles build strength naturally – in cycles of repetition and recovery!","Why should you do reps and sets?",{"_uid":692,"answer":693,"question":694,"component":670},"10cb66fe-2dd0-415d-9d7e-c92dd702aeac","The number of reps and sets a boxer should complete during strength training varies. Setting reps and sets depend on three (3) main factors:\\n\\n1. Exercise/Muscle Group\\nSome movements are simply easier to complete than others, requiring more reps and/or sets to pose any resistance at all. When you are working muscles that are commonly used, like your biceps, you may want to increase the number of reps, sets, or weight to challenge the muscle. Less commonly used muscles, such as the triceps, are generally weaker, requiring far fewer reps and sets and much less resistance to feel the impact.\\n\\n2. Fitness Level\\nAs with all exercise, beginners need to proceed more cautiously when embarking on a strength training program. While pushing yourself is always encouraged, overdoing it with too many reps and sets, or jumping in with too much weight, can result in injury. Even experienced boxers can overtrain and get burnt out. It’s recommended that you start training with lighter weights, and fewer reps and sets to establish your personal baseline and slowly increase weight and frequency as you advance.\\n\\n3. Goals\\nThere are different approaches to weight training reps and sets depending on what you are trying to achieve.\\n\\nMuscle Strength and Endurance: Using lighter weights to complete more reps and sets will improve muscle strength safely and increase muscle endurance over time. Gradually using heavier weights is even more effective in challenging your muscles to grow. Beginners need to be confident that they are using proper form before adding more resistance and weight.\\nIncreased Muscle Mass (Hypertrophy): Using heavier weights for shorter durations is best for increasing muscle mass. Remember, it takes a lot to bulk up like a bodybuilder. Professional bodybuilders who are trying to bulk up their physique will use much heavier weights – and consume massive amounts of calories to substantially increase muscle size. Eating like a boxer while using more resistance will make you lean and strong rather than bulky, so don’t shy away from using heavier weights if you’re ready!","How many reps and sets should a boxer do?",{"_uid":696,"answer":697,"question":698,"component":670},"9a4cf797-e8b8-46bd-84b7-4054f4761489","You should take all of the above factors into consideration when you are determining how many reps and sets you should do. Following a training program designed for your fitness level is the best way to choose how many reps and sets are appropriate for each exercise. A beginner may be crushing their goals by doing 3 sets of 5 reps for one exercise, whereas someone at an advanced level may be barely challenged at 5 sets of 10 reps of the same exercise.

Sometimes all you need to be is motivated to have a better relationship and a health/life/play balance. ","What is the difference between motivation and determination?",{"_uid":1164,"answer":1165,"question":1166,"component":670},"1da549b6-9bb9-424f-b5dc-2916ecc1d18c","Here are some tips to stay motivated and different scenarios that you might face where that motivational drive isn't what you want it to be, and how you can find the means to stay with your fitness routine.\n\n1. Working Out at Home\nThe wonderful thing about working out from home is that it offers numerous benefits. Being able to do it whenever you want, day or night, no waiting in line to use gym equipment, no commute to and from, the list goes on. Sometimes home workouts can have the exact opposite effect.\n\nThis typically arises because we are most comfortable in our own homes. Once we are done with the work day and back at home, it's all too easy to get comfortable and not want to get up and start that workout. So, how do you manage this?\n\nSet aside time - Set aside specific times each day for exercise, making sure to block off calendars if it’s during the middle of the day, or carve out 20/30 minutes before or after work. That time is protected and you made plans for it.\n\nTurn up the media - Really not feeling it? Blast some of your favorite pump-up jams or listen to a motivational speech or podcast.\n\nJust start - Sometimes the hardest part is just starting, but once you get going, it's easier to find the drive along the way. Remember, nobody ever regretted finishing a workout. \n\n2. Staying Committed to Exercising Daily\nSometimes it's not that we lack the motivation to work out, sometimes it is the motivation to work out consistently. That’s not to say that you have to work out seven days a week, 365 days a year, but staying adherent to consistency long-term leads to lifestyle changes. \n\nSo how can you find the motivation to exercise daily? Simple. Have active rest days. Active rest days can be utilized on a consistent basis to incorporate daily movement into your life, without overtaxing the body and nervous system. Here are some options to include on active rest days that have been shown to have numerous health benefits.\n\n-Outdoor walks/hikes in nature\n-Easy pace swims\n-Sauna sessions\n-Low-intensity yoga\n-Mobility work \n-Stretching\n\n3. Morning Workouts Before Starting the Day\nOne of the best ways to ensure that you get your workout in for the day is to do it before work or before the kids are up. Sometimes, that is easier said than done. Your bed ends up becoming too comfy and getting out from under the covers seems like a real struggle; the motivation becomes non-existent. Here's how to do it.\n\nGetting into a good morning routine starts the night before in the evening time. This means developing a routine that becomes a habit. \n\n-Turning off electronics the last hour\n-Sleeping in a blacked-out environment\n-Getting to bed at the same time each night\n-Set out your workout clothes the night before\n\nSimply incorporating a few key disciplines each night can help ensure you fall asleep quickly and get the most out of each sleep session. Then, when the alarm rings at 5 a.m. to get up for your workout, you’ll feel refreshed and ready to take on that 20 minute H.I.I.T. session.\n\n4. End-of-Day Workouts\nWhile working out before work or taking the kiddos to school may be ideal for some, it may not be an option for others. So the only option is to work out post office hours. This can sometimes be a pitfall for motivational levels. You just put in an eight or more hour day, and now you need to find the energy to work out. How do you now find motivation when you don't want to work out?\n\nHere are a couple of ways to help you get that motivation for working out at the end of the day.\n\nMake it a priority - The excuses are easy to find once you’ve put in a full day's worth of work. The truth of the matter usually comes down to not wanting it bad enough. Finding your reason “why” you work out or have certain goals can certainly help when the motivation is not there. \n\nDo it right away - The reason most fail with post-work exercise is that we get too comfy. Here is how you can combat that. Once you immediately get home from work/finish working remotely, don’t unwind just yet, get into those gym clothes, turn on your fitness app, and start your workout. \n\nFamily first - Other times it literally is not feasible to work out immediately following your nine-to-five. Some have to pick up kids, make dinner, help with homework, etc. That’s totally understandable. Here is that workaround. \n\nOnce the kids have gone to sleep and it has been at least an hour or 2 since you’ve eaten dinner, use that time for yourself and for your workout. You’ll feel great by ending the day with a sweat session and it will help you sleep better too!","How can you get motivated to work out?",{"name":260,"created_at":261,"published_at":262,"updated_at":263,"id":264,"uuid":265,"content":1168,"slug":260,"full_slug":280,"sort_by_date":48,"position":281,"tag_list":1180,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":57,"meta_data":48,"group_id":283,"first_published_at":284,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":1181,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":267,"name":268,"category":1169,"component":39,"meta_info":1177,"block_image":1178,"cover_image":1179,"internal_notes":7},{"name":140,"created_at":141,"published_at":142,"updated_at":143,"id":144,"uuid":145,"content":1170,"slug":140,"full_slug":325,"sort_by_date":48,"position":55,"tag_list":1175,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":135,"meta_data":48,"group_id":327,"first_published_at":328,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":1176,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":147,"name":148,"topics":1171,"component":118,"meta_info":1172,"meta_title":7,"block_image":1173,"cover_image":1174,"internal_notes":7,"meta_description":7},[156,184,211,238,265,292],{"_uid":315,"title":316,"plugin":43,"description":317},{"id":319,"alt":320,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":320,"filename":321,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":323,"alt":320,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":320,"filename":324,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],{"_uid":270,"title":271,"plugin":43,"description":272},{"id":274,"alt":275,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":275,"filename":276,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":278,"alt":275,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":275,"filename":279,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],"556f66aa-ba69-478f-94b7-752150a263c0",{"type":738,"content":1184},[1185,1190,1205,1219,1224,1228,1233,1237,1275,1279,1284,1288,1292,1297,1301,1306,1320,1324,1344,1349,1353,1357,1415,1420,1424,1428,1454,1468,1473,1477,1481,1508,1512,1517,1521,1526,1540],{"type":804,"attrs":1186,"content":1187},{"level":806},[1188],{"text":1189,"type":745},"How to Stay Motivated to Work Out",{"type":741,"content":1191},[1192,1194,1203],{"text":1193,"type":745},"Motivation is a fleeting entity.

Basically, the idea is that by constantly hitting certain points on an opponent’s body, namely their liver, solar plexus, and serratus muscles (located on the upper chest to the side and below the pectorals) you will severely limit their ability to generate power to the upper body and disrupt their breathing, stressing their cardio far faster than normal.\n\n*Pro Tip: One great way to set up a good shot to the solar plexus is to feint a jab while stepping back.
