u guys may have noticed ive cut about 30 mins off my workouts. two reasons: 1. im running 3 times a week now for 20-30 mins 2. ive changed gym and now have "real" trainers/coaches. they are forcing me to keep my hands up at all times, when shadow boxing, heavy bag, double end etc. before i was dropping my hands to my lower neck/throat area. this is making me much more tired. they are also standing next to me when im on the bags telling me what to throw and ensuring everything is done with speed, power and correct technique. it is much more tiring and i am being worked harder than i worked myself in the past.

Good work bro! Run! Run! Run! It's funny reading about how you keep sleeping in. I hate running had to do it before a charity fight I had, helped alot though in sparring made me feel much fitter. Do you still have a fight in January seeing as you changed gyms?
Thanks CJ No i wont be fighting in Jan anymore but im still training as if im gonna fighting. i might enter the nY golden gloves which is in april but i have to lose weight first, we'll see. Yeah the running sucks man I hate that **** big time especially in this cold weather. Im staying in a hotel next week so Im gonna try and get in the gym on the treadmill evrery morning and take advantage of it.
I guess you can get the weight down slowly now you have no fight planned and become more comfortable fighting at the weight. I'll be in a hotel next week too and hopefully they have gym there that I can use. Good luck with the training and the golden gloves if you enter. I'll be lurking on your training log keeping up with the progress. :good

not had time to update this but training is basically going same as ever. eating went very wayward and i put on 6LBs in roughly 2 weeks. time to step it up a notch and begin the new year with a new approach.
little update since its been a while been eating just 3 meals per day + a shake in the evening and a pre workout snack of a granola bar + handful of fruit+nuts here and there stepped up cardio bigtime, i run 15 mins on hill setting at the end of every session i weighed myself today and came in at 195lbs which is a massive loss from 210 just over 3 weeks ago.
