    what to look for in a good trainer?

    whats good boxing community i was looking for some advice. i am from a small town in florida where in my area they are like only 3 boxing gyms. i have been to one but the trainer was really busy wit out of gym issues and couldnt committ fully like how i thought. i am at this one now but the trainer is iffy to me. what things should i look for to make sure he is the real deal and not just hype?

    if your trainer is not commited to you, do not commit to him.

      Theres no real formula to figure that out.

      Did he fight at the pro level? That doesn't make him a great coach but it gives him credibility if he actually knows what he's talking about. Is he patient when trying to teach you stuff or does he just get annoyed? And most importantly he's gotta pay attention to everything you do and correct everything you do wrong. Especially the little things. And if you're a beginner that means he should be constantly around you unless he really has to teach other guys some new stuff. He can't be everywhere at the same time. But if you're a beginner and your coach is standing in the corner not doing anything or watching you make mistake after mistake you have to get out of there, you don't want to be "coached" by a guy like that.

      Also ask around and see what other people think of him and his gym.

                a trainer that cares about your health and both have the same goals in mind. like you want to be a champion but he wants to use u to help out his other fighters. someone who wnts to work with you and make you better and make you a winner. someone you connect with.

                  its like finding a girlfriend. everyone is different and look for different things differnt goals. some dont get along some just not right for that moment. so you might find the right trainer off the back you might find it after 4 or 5

                    lol tru good looks on that it makes mad sense at first i was like on some ol different **** thinking like well if my trainer say this or that then it has to be right but then i thought about and was like hold up. like i use to fight at 152 but i felt like **** i just thought that was part of the game but then i took it on myself to say wait and gained like 10 lbs and i am a different fighter
