    I guess everyone differs. Me I eat 5-6 decent sized meals a day for energy and I dont gain much weight has to do probablly with everything I eat I **** out right away and sweat like a pig working out 2-3 times daily agian. Some guys dont eat before their morning workout or eat 3 times a day but me personally I need the food for energy. Agian everyones different but im curious to see what alot of other guys or girls who fight in the ams have to say.

    Not oo much; just hopefully some matches at the end of the month into April, LBC gloves are on the 29th and I might be uncontested there, and April 11-12 is our Regional gloves. Hoping I can break through and qualify for Nationals this year.
