Weight training for boxing.

Did you find a 5x5 program and read how the 5x5 part works exactly?
For you to ask me that I don't think you have.. do so!
Maxing out doesn't come into it at any point for you.
You build the weight up slowly, you can either do 5 sets with the same weight or build up in small increments close to your top set to get those 5 sets.

 

If you dont want to get bigger dont eat as much a possible....... Lifting weights doesnt make you bigger the surplose of calories makes you bigger lifting weights just means those calories are going towards muscle building instead of fat stores

cytotec is a medication with anti acidic activity used to prevent formation of stomach ulcers in patients who take NSAIDs such as aspirin or ibuprofen. Its main component is Misoprostol, it is a synthetic prostaglandin, the substance which is produced either in a stomach. Their role consists in protecting inner lining of the stomach from destructive action of NSAIDs which are supposed to destruct natural prostaglandins in the stomach.

 

its all about the technique with beginners, my friend, and stressing the right areas, not falling apart and overburdening other parts of you with bad lifts.
You can add weight when you can do 3x10 easily with your bodyweight and with strict form, no swinging up and down bull****, pause at the top pause at the bottom.
You don't have to eat as much as possible really, just make sure you have a good protein source with each meal. Don't ever be hungry though. You won't necessarily put on any or much weight.
Don't be afraid of putting on a couple of lbs, you will be filling out your frame, it won't be detrimental to anything.

 

Don't go purely weightlifting. It will bulk you up, make you look better, but also put you in a higher weight class against guys who are naturally bigger. Weight lifting makes you stronger and better able to lift weights, not necessarily a harder or faster puncher, and requires more energy (i.e. less stamina). Obviously a few months won't do much bad, but I've been lifting for nearly a year now, went up two or three weight classes, but haven't become a better boxer in any way. My opponents, however, have: they're naturally much bigger than me.

 

1-2lbs of muscle (if that) isn't going to make him go flying up through the weight classes. Nothing wrong with what he's doing.

 

zzzzzzzzz

 

What's the point of lifting if you're only looking for 1-2lbs of extra muscle?

 

You think the only reason to lift weights is to build muscle?

 

careful everyone, we will instantly put on 20lbs of lean muscle and no other changes to the body
If he builds some muscle and loses some fat from the increased metabolism guess what.. same weight and a better athlete..

 

Thats because your an idiot who maybe prioritised weight lifting to your boxing. If you were doing strength training to supplement your boxing training then you would gain STRENGTH and be around same weight
