It is certain that the training regimen that Mike Tyson offers will provide you with the motivation that you are seeking for.
Despite the fact that Mike’s lesson plan places an emphasis on tactical skill and muscle strength based on bodyweight, you might notice that there is little emphasis placed on weight training.
It is said that Tyson trained with more than 200 pounds when he was a teenager; but, throughout his tenure with Cus D’Amato, he primarily avoided weight training to the greatest extent possible.
Performing Calisthenic Exercises with Mike Tyson:
Ten times a day, six days per week, perform 200 sit-ups, fifty pull-ups, fifty push-ups, and fifty shoulder pull-ups.
The daily workout routine that Mike Tyson followed for around four to five weeks prior to the fight:
Get up at four o’clock and go for a run of between three and five miles (five to eight kilometers).
Go home, take a shower, and then go back to sleep at six o’clock all night.
At ten o’clock, you should get up and eat breakfast. The breakfast that Mike Tyson consumes consists of porridge topped with fruit, orange juice, and multivitamin bottles. At the conclusion of his breakfast, Mike will consume a protein shake.
Ten rounds of sparring and three rounds of calisthenics are scheduled for 12:00 p.m.
Lunch will be served at 2:00 p.m. Carbohydrates, protein, veggies, and water will all be included in the lunch menu.
Three o’clock: Another six rounds of sparring to go. Punching the punching bag, evading slip bag balls, jumping rope, punching the Willie bag (a type of punching bag that is posted on the wall with numbers on it), punching the lumber, then punching the speed bag (Cus D’Amato has never been interested in this activity), and cycling for sixty minutes are some of the other exercises that are included in this workout routine. At long last, three bouts of the calisthenics.
Calisthenics should be continued for four rounds at five o’clock, followed by slow wind or the practice of a conventional technique.
Dinner will be served at seven o’clock tonight. Mike Tyson often consumes a meal consisting of vegetables, protein, and carbohydrates, typically adhering to the formula of ½ veggies, ¼ protein, and ¼ carb with each serving.
After a long and exhausting day of training, thirty minutes of mild cycling will be performed around eight o’clock in the evening. Mike will not make any adjustments to the Resistance in order to make the bike heavier; rather, he will peddle in a gentle manner.
Nine o’clock: After watching some enjoyable television or studying the matches, retire to bed.
Mike Tyson completed a total of 2,000 sit-ups, 500 bench dips, 500 push-ups, 500 shoulder pulls with 30 kg of weights, and 10 minutes of neck muscle training in a single day.
It is estimated that 60,000 sit-ups, 15,000 bench dips, 15,000 push-ups, 15,000 shoulder pulls, and 5 hours of neck muscle training are performed over the full pre-match preparation period. This is in addition to the time spent on technique and sparring.
These are some appallingly high figures. The fact that an amateur boxer will probably only be able to accomplish one-tenth of what “Steel Mike” has planned in a single day is something that you must be aware of.
