adrenaline rush?

Answer 15

i think that its cuz ur so scared. ur not a chicken or a wimp or anything but ur just scared. and u shouldnt be fighting in the first place anyways. its really dangerous and cuz u cant punch hard than dont fight cuz you will definitely get hurt... or even killed. and its not worth it dude. think about that, make the right choices.

Answer 16

its just your adrenalin that's normal mate that's not going to go away that's what fighters are addicted to. This adrenalin rush will keep you sharp so use it to your advantage  feed your fire and desire to win with this adrenalin. You would have to be stupid to have no fear at all. A fighters fear of losing is what helps him win, fear is your friend not your enemy when Mike Tyson used to fight he was petrified in his changing and at times even broke down in tears it did him no harm did it. So take your fears and stare them in the face. Good luck with the boxing mate

Answer 17

in preporation for the "fight or flight" response your body pumps adrenaline round your body to increase your  alertness and get you ready for action, it can also lead to panic attacks.

Answer 18

fear and adrenaline. You should actually be able to punch harder due to the excitement, so that's weird.

Answer 19

Adrenalina n maybe u get nervous

Answer 20

Its adrenaline. To harness it, and turn it into anger, you need to shout aggresively. Try this BEFORE you come out of the changing room!

Answer 21

i use to box too. it is your adreline. if you just concentrate on your purpose and think of only winning than you should calm down. put all your power and weight into your back and arms. when your punch imagine a force of power traveling thru your feet then  legs then waist then back then arms then fist. hope this helps.

Answer 22

adrenaline itself wont do this perticular thing. adrenaline makes you hyperactive and stronger. but un-concentrated. It looked like he had adrenaline rish and a lack of testostorone at once. Then this can happen.....

Answer 23

heart murmor get it checked out

Answer 24

that would be because your nervous or fear your opponent or just fear of fighting. it should go away with more expiriance
