Should I start amateur boxing now or get myself into condition first?

I way 190 pounds i'm 5'8 but very athletic. I am overweight and I havn't had much luck in losing weight because of the winter and was wondering if I should join amateur boxing.





P.S i've been doing boxing around 4-5 months already and im pretty experianced my condition just worrys me. I'm fast and carry alot of power but my cardio is lacking, any advice?|||Hi Joe,





You may start training right away. Tell the trainer that you were on a hiatus and he will give you a lighter routine. It is okay not to put much force in punching for a few sessions as this might cause you to faint or light-headed or whatever the term is.|||hey since you like boxing check my video out my channel is dougizangry http://www.youtube.com/user/dougizangry .... i know im slow punching and overweight but just check it out and give me some tips thanks
