    Hey guys, i'll keep it really short. Got a kickboxing fight on May 5th and coach put me down as 61Kg and im currently 63Kg .. I didn't reach my fitness peak yet but im working on it training everyday and whenever i feel strong twice or three times but i cannot seem be able to burn that 2Kg down. I do not take any protein shakes or stuff like that, I only eat whatever mother leaves for me on the table.. I eat a healthy diet (nothing too specific just healthy food in general) but I need to find a way to burn that stubborn bit of that that i've got.. Any tips you guys can give me? What is the best type of technique to burn fat? I heard that you should run for 1 hour at zone 1/2. First 20 minutes burns carbs etc. the rest of the 40 minutes burns down fat, is this correct? Im not going to tag no one to reply just anyone with a bit of knowledge who can back up his/her answer

    Don't worry about all the bull**** about burning fat zone or what excercises to do. calories out> calories in. Simply eat smaller portions. Btw a meal being home cooked by mum doesnt always mean healthy. To be honest you got around 4 weeks to lose the 2 kg so just eat smaller portions and go as hard or harder then you do now at training and the weight should come off. If that doesnt work and you have to lose the 2kg in a week or so there are EXTREME ways of that happening which i wouldnt reccommend

    I use this formula:

    100 - Bodyfat% x total weight (kg) /100 = LBM

    LBM x 21.6 + 370 = BMR

    Once you have your BMR, multiply that against the following criteria:

    1.2 = Sedentary
    1.3-1.4 = Lightly Active
    1.5-1.6 = Moderately Active
    1.7-1.8 = Very Active
    1.9-2.2 = Extremely Active

    Bare in mind, a lot of people actually overestimate their activity levels, most people tend to fall into the 'moderately active' bracket, but if you need a little more help, post up details about your day to day activity and exercise frequency and intensity.

    From that you have an estimate of your total daily energy expenditure. It's recommended that you eat between 10-20% below for a healthy speed of weight loss.

    Make sure you get sufficient fat and with you training for a fight you're also going to want plenty of carbs, protein should be more of an afterthought.

    Remember, these formulas just provide estimates, you'll need to tweak your intake a bit as everybody is different.

    I checked it on Google and it suggested that im extremely active.. I train 2-3 times a day at a very high intensity, im 16 years old 170cm high 63Kg weight. To keep my current weight i need 2500 calories a day and too lose at a healthy rate i should take 2000-2200?

    If you're extremely active, you're going to need more than 2000-2200 with your body stats.

    Here's a simple setup for the low kick: [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NRZLQe23rA[/ame]

    Practice looking at the opponent/heavybag at head level and doing the low kick. Also do NOT back away from your opponent or you will get countered with kicks on your way out.

    If you're a boxer, use your hands at close range. There are good counters for the teep like catching kicks.
