I just had a friend come down from arkansas who has been figthing for a while and he mentioned i should start too but im clueless as to where I should begin. thanks for the help

You have NO MONEY?! this is going to be tough... erm shadowbox? and shrimp on the ground. Run. I don't know what else to suggest that is free.

[DisciplineHopes]

yea no omatter what you do its gonna cost something. google some workoutroutines that could fit your schedule and accomplish what you looking to do. thats about all the free advice i can give.

[Kensei]

Join alot of school type sports that are combat oriented to get your training! Wrestling and foot ball are good.

outside of that get a bunch of guys together that want to learn and start rolling with them. You might need to collect money for gear and such but that seems to be a good start point till you can find money and time.

[Asa87]

yea where abouts are you from? If you're American then jump on the wrestling at school and just work your ass off in it.

Find a job, I heard McDonalds was hiring near your area Got a lawnmower? Start mowing your neighbors lawns and get paid.

Yea well I have been playing football my whole life.. since 2nd grade, linebacker to be specific. but I will deffinatly start looking ofr a job thanks for the help. but how would i be able to find fights and all that? or would they find me once i join a gym or what?

[gizmo2020]

and if it helps at all im 16, 5ft 9 and about 180 all muscle. what are some ways i could lose weight without losing my strength?

[Asa87]

just do some real explosive circuits and train on heavy bags. That'll shread you down and keep the muscle while building power. Why do you want to lose weight though if you are all muscle? Don't worry about finding fights haha, just train, you got a good few years ahead of you before you start looking into having amateur fights. Get into a club, wrestling, BJJ, Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Boxing... something to give you a strong base.

what asa said........

JUST DONT GO INTO ANYTHING PREMATURELY!!! this is a major thing. if you get inthere and cant stick with it because youve gone in at a bad time for yourself then a second chacne is hard to come by due to self motivation.

No money...wow...this is tough especially because striking without a trainer to correct your form can be dangerous. But I will give you some tips. Do Calisthenics, Plyometrics and running on different days. When it's raining or snowing do burpees.

Shadow box in front of a mirror and look up the following people on google or youtube. Ross Enamait and bass routine. Look up Muay thai, boxing, BJJ and wrestling techniques and drills and follow those.
