Strength Training – Push Ups Vs Weights?
I am 15 years old, and over the past 6 months I have slowly been building up in to a good shape and although I realise their is no one simple answer to the question, if I could get some good comments I would be appreciative.
My question is, as far as strength training for muscle and all that good stuff goes, what is better, Push Ups/Situps/Leglifts/Allthatjazz or good old Weight Training?
Sports: Boxing, Track And Field
If you want huge muscles, weight training takes over because mass gains are triggered by moving a lot of weight. As you get stronger, working with body weight, you’ll be working endurance more.
For actual real life applications though, it may be less of an issue. Boxing for example requires plyometric exercise – you need explosiveness, not to mention endurance. Being able to slowly lift a massive weight is not what boxers require, nor do they especially want big muscles – they want high power on as light a body as possible! I’m told clap pushups are great for boxers, as are working out with speed/heavy bags.
