End of the month apparently. I'm 177, gotta get down to 164-165. Advice? I'm watching my diet and will start running everyday. Will wear heavy clothing to sweat a lot, too. I'm about %18 bodyfat so there's that, too.
18% bf? kinda much for a boxer anwyays cut out the fats and only eat carbs post workout everything eles should be lean high protien foods. also drink lots of water up until your last week of training then cut down.
Just called my trainer, said I can fight between 170-175. Hope I don't fight anyone real experienced. Yeah, %18bf is high for a boxer but I started training three months ago. I've got plenty of muscle now but I'm still a bit chubby. Weigh-in is day of the fight.
When I spar I block out the people watching and commenting. All that matters is hitting my opponent and when I get hit I get mad. I think I'll be fine in the ring, my fear is the anticipation. I get the shits when I know I'm gonna be sparring, so I know I'll feel sick knowing I'll be in a real fight with a more experienced fighter in front of lots of people.:shock:
Yeah, three. I'm fairly aggressive and I like to come at you with the jab and cross. I don't feel comfortable if I'm not on the attack, and that's a big reason why I get so tired. That and I'm out of shape by boxing standards.
Im buying some gloves head guards mouth piece now, After 5 years of being into boxing I am dying to fight, I feel like I've watched so many styles and that I can imitate any of them, but really I'll gas out in a round im sure. My friend is an amatuer boxer who trains at Peacocks gym in London, and i'll fight with him for some practise.
