The Theory of the Sweet Science
The Theory of the Sweet Science
GloveGame.com was started by me (Jeremy) around September of 2008, though the idea for the site began about 14 months earlier. It’s all about the theory, history and the philosophy of boxing but also includes some fitness information, book reviews, and various articles
I love the sport of boxing and all the health benefits that go along with it. After 10 years of involvement, my opinion is that I don't think there is a better way to train your body and achieve a level of fitness and conditioning that will give you an edge in whatever it is you do. But despite that, I've always incorporated a decent amount of weight training into the program and I set up a very basic home gym for that purpose. If you're interested in some ideas to set something like that up for yourself see the home gym page. home gym page.
If I could sum up this website in one line it would be this: Physical training combined with the study and a holistic approach to boxing and your health = A better boxer. If you only get one thing from this website then take that bit of advice.
Obviously you can’t practice boxing whilst sitting at the computer, but you can use your time here to gain some knowledge, wisdom, insight, education and theory of off the many and varied people from all across the world who are willing to share what they know.
Everyone should make the effort to study the theory, then apply that knowledge in the gym and use that experience to build upon, in your everyday life.
I don’t pretend to have all the answers, far from it! So this place is not about being a monologue, I want this site to be a dialogue. It's a place for all to interact and immerse in the sweet—science so make the site your own, feel free to sock me an email, pack a punch with a comment or throw a suggestion. Alternatively, sign up for the Forum and join in the discussion.
