Not to bring up the dead, but I just wanted to give some insight on the topic.

I will just give my advice in sections seeing as it is early in the morning over here and i am pretty groggy haha

Heavy bag: Hit for atleast 5 rounds LIGHTLY..I say lightly because it will only be a matter of time before you damage your wrists if you dont. Focus on speed and form when hitting the heavy bag..every now and then throw a good hard hit in there. From here you should go to the double end bag or the speed bag to work on reflexes and agility.

Running: Is a MUST. if you are serious about fighting you need to be running everyday. 1-2 miles to start and work your way up to 4 miles...anything more than that, in my opinion, Is only gonna hurt you in the long run. by running 4 miles mon-sat your stamina will be INTENSE. thus, being able to fight more in the ring.

Sparring: Do not worry about when is the time to get in the. One day YOU will know its time to fight. You will be feeling smooth with your hits.

Jumping rope: There is not much to say for this other than it is Essential for agility and stamina.

Footwork: one hte most important things to know. Alot of people skip out on this...While I am not going to freely give advice as to how I feel the foot work should be,( I do not want to contradict your trainer)Feel free to ask and I can help you!

there is soo much more as well, if wanted just ask and i can tell more! Remember...with speed and perfection of the form, power will come to your hits.
