. Manny Pacquiao’s workout routine begins at 6am. He runs for 45 minutes and the performs sprints. After eating and resting, Pacquiao trains in the gym for 3 hours. He goes home and eats and rests at the completion of this workout as well. For his boxing routine, Pacquiao starts by performing shadow boxing to loosen him up and warm up his body. Then he performs his punch mitt routine that involves fast combinations. After that, Pacquiao practices his footwork. Pacquiao works on the double bags, speed bag, and heavy bag, spending several rounds with each. Finally, he jumps rope and performs more conditioning. Pacquiao’s workout routine concludes with his coach hitting him with a stick in his mid section to condition his abdominals. Pacquiao performs a cool down procedure after this. As you can see, Pacquiao’s workout is brutal. In three grueling hours, Pacquiao completes sparring, heavy bag work, shadow boxing, plyometrics, jump rope, speed bag work, and then stands around to get hit by a bamboo pole. He always finds time for 1,400 crunches per day. Pacquiao does take time to rest…on Sundays.
In a recent interview before the Cotto fight Ariza said “Its very fortunate that Manny has responded so well to the exercises we do now and the new circuit training and things like that. We’ve got a good program where we focus on the strength part of it doing all the explosive movements, the plyometrics, ballistic training and in the last few weeks we focus on speed, strength work, balance,agility and things like that.?“In the first 4 weeks of training camp we keep him on a 7000 calories a day diet, and closer to the fight a few things are taken out of the diet but he still has to keep his intake up. He has to have a protein shake before going to bed, he has one at 3am, and another one first thing in the morning. He has up to six meals a day and six protein shakes a day when in training for a fight. We have to keep weight on him, as he trains so hard. We can’t have his body dropping calories.?br />
In training camp every morning Manny will be up at 5 am running. Ariza uses inteval training routines. They might also do tabatas of 20 seconds on 10 seconds rest to replicate the type of energy required for a fight. Ratio of activity to rest is almost always negative. They will either do this kind of training in the hills where they can do hill sprints as well, in a park or sometimes at the beach where they run in the sand. If and when Alex feels they need to do some low impact type work they will do a pool session. At the end of this session they may do a bit of plyometrics, ladder drills and core exercises. Alot of emphasis is placed on the core. As soon as this session is complete he does a thourough warm down and stretch followed by a meal with sufiecient carbohydrate to raise his insulin levels to promote recovery. He then has a protein before going home to rest up for the afternoon session in the gym.
The afternoon session starts with a good warm up (including various dynamic and static stretches) and usually some shadow boxing.

Jogging
“How far I run each day varies,?says Mayweather. “And sometimes if I’ve sparred more rounds than usual on one particular day, won’t run at all. But when do hit the road, I’ll do anything between five and eight-and-a-half miles going fast."
Sit-up punches
This is where his trainer holds his legs and then he stands up out of a sit-up position, throws two uppercuts then returns back down. Go for as many as possible. Inevitably give up after three.
Skipping
A lung-hurting exercise that also helps a fighter's coordination as he rhythmically works out where his feet land as the rope swings at high speed. Mayweather will sometimes skip up to 20 minutes straight, often as a warming-up exercise.
Neck Harness
An exercise that's unique to boxing. The fighter lies on the canvas of a ring with his head pointing over it and a neck harness attacked round his head. This has chains linking it to a weight - putting a strain on his neck muscles. Mayweather will just move his head up and down so that his neck doesn't snap back on a fight night.
2/ Technique
Sparring
"I spar between eight and ten rounds every day to work on my technique and certain punches I'm going to use to expose the boxer I'm fighting. I'm working on my uppercut because I've noticed Marquesz has been dropped a few times with that punch."
Shadowboxing
Footwork - that is the elegance with which a fighter moves round the ring to position himslef to throw punches - is a great fighter's main weapon. Mayweather's footwork is a second to none. And shadowboxing is where he hones it.
Pads
The speed at which Mayweather throws punches while his trainer holds the padded mitts is remarkable, often ducking under his trainer's hands. "I'll do 30 minutes of padwork straight," says Mayweather, "with no break at all."
Punch bags
"I heard straight for the heaviest bag in my gym that really pushes my body as I hit it and then don't stop for another 20 minutes. I'm looking to not only go into that fight looking to win, I also want to be viewed by others as the best at my sport."
