    Check out this website: http://www.rossboxing.com/thegym/supplements1.html
    Some great products there.

    Now I'm thinking about caffeine pills might not be such a good choice :eek: They help but not for everyday use because they will lead to dependence (and other supplements that give you more energy)
    A good diet and hard work is all you need. And don't forget to have at least 8 hours of sleep for recovery.

    They're supposedly bad for you though (caffeine pills), so I would stick to natural carbs. Not sure though, beside protein and glutamine Im not really a supplement guy.

    There are no boxing specific supplements. Things that may be useful, depending on your diet, are:

    - Whey protein. You don't need the amount prescribed by its manufacturer though, a third to half would be more than enough.
    - Flaxseed oil / fish oil. Aids in recovery and keeps the joints supple.
    - Multi-vitamin/mineral.
    - Glucosamine/chondoitrine, also for joints.

    What you really need though, is a healthy diet.

    If you guys are looking for a legit product try Fight Factor by Nutrabolics...contains beta-alanine to ward off mental and physical fatigue.

    a good diet is all you need ffs, i take half a protein shake 25 grams of protein after a weights session (3 times a week) whenever i do a weights session

    in the month leading up to a fight i might start taking vitamin tablets, although io make sure i get my vitamins and minerals through my diet first

    All Natural Foods, Whey Protein, Flaxseed Oil, a Multivitamin, and Hard-Work will get you to where you want to be. Everything else is up for debate.
