Gear
SHOPPING LISTS
A List: Right away
for the boxer’s workout:
T-shirts
Shorts or sweats
Athletic socks
Athletic footwear
Wraps
Bag gloves
Heavy bag
Jump rope
Punch mitts
(if you have a partner)
B List: Later on

This is the stuff you gotta have. You’ll look at the loaded
catalogs and see all kinds of other things, but this is all
you really need to develop some basic skills over a six-
month period.In fact,you shouldn’t have to worry about
anything on the B List until your initial training (which
could very well last six months) is finished.
