    Hmmm. Never seen a body-builder run a marathon, nor a distance runners squat twice his bodyweight. Anyhow. If he's been a boxer, do you not think he might be HAPPY with how he is? Size isn't everything. I have thin arms and no shoulders but can press and lift more than most. You need to consider what he wants, not what you want. I want my wife to get fitter but she has to make that step, not me.
    He isn't a boxer but he wants to try it. Therefore he wants to get in shape and build some muscle. I'm not telling him to. He wanted a partner but didn't know where to start. So I was trying to be supportive and helpful.
