A boxer after circuit training will lay on his back and put his feet some
3ft up a wall for 5 minutes. This is what I was told to do anyway, when I
used to box. Not sure what it actually does, but yeah, it helped.

That is what you do for shock ;)
It keeps the blood supply in the core organs including the head.

Yes, I remember the coach explaining something like that. Mind you, we
needed it after getting slammed with medicine balls! O.O

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medicine_ball
"Medicine balls are used by boxing professionals to improve the strength
of abdominal muscles. This is done by dropping the ball onto the abdomen
of the boxer, simulating a punch coming from an opponent."
...the HELL??! O_O

So... let me make sure I understand this correctly... you PAY somebody
to cause you excruciating pain and permanent physical injury on a
regular basis?? o_O
Oh, wait. Boxing. So you'd have to be brain-damaged in the first place. ;-)

Well, we didn't pay back in those days, so it was pain FOR FREE!!

No, not at all, it was a great regime. Circuit training, (and yes, that
ball did hurt, but it also worked), and a few rounds sparring trying to
knock the hell out of eachother. Great fun. :)

Yes, unfortunately for some. It's a tough game to be in if it's the
career you want to follow. I've been watching and following boxing for about
40 years now, (jeez, I can't believe I just typed that!), and I've seen
nearly all the <known> tragedies, well, at least over here in the UK.
Great sport for a youngster though. When I was doing it, we didn't have
safety headgear, just a pair of massive well-cushioned old soft leather
gloves. It would make your eyes water if you copped one on the nose, but
that's about it. Yeah, it was fun. :)

whoa! Slow down on the salsa, Tony Manero. I see your dancing entries
now almost equal Haskell entries! Something's terribly wrong! :P
how about some Tylenol?
