Tyson Fury’s Gym workout

The ‘Gypsy King’ doesn’t stop his training in the boxing gym. It is no secret that he includes weight training into his routine. We have seen him regularly lifting heavy weights with ease. This helps the champion increase his punching power, while also building up the muscle mass.

His gym sessions also involve a lot of core work, as well as a fair bit of injury prevention exercises. Fury does a lot of ab workouts that have helped him reach peak shape. While we often see him getting in the rehab exercises with resistance bands.

Other aspects of Tyson Fury’s training

It does not end there for the WBC Heavyweight Champion. He considers recovery an integral part of his workout. Fury is regularly getting massages to recover. While his diet has been very strict ever since he started his weight loss journey.

Gone are the days where the Englishman can eat what he wants and drink whatever he craves. He has his own nutritionists when in camp, and his wife maintains the discipline when he is out of camp.

Fury has also said that eating the right things helps keep a healthy state of mind. Other than these, you will also notice that Fury always trains for his fights in foreign countries.

For his fight against Deontay Wilder, he was training in Big Bear, California. While he started his weight loss journey with a camp in Marbella. This is usually to get away from the routine life back home.

Therefore, it is clear to see just how much goes into the champion’s success. Furthermore, thinking back to where he came from makes it all the more impressive.

The fact that his training helps him with his mental well-being, we can expect Tyson Fury to maintain his physique for years to come.
