Ok guys/girls this could be long so please bear with it.
I'm 22 years old and looking to start boxing, no previous experience at it therefor will be starting from scratch (inspired by the Olympics sadly enough)
Due to my job its a neccesity to stay fit so long runs, short runs, runs with weight, hill sprints, circuit training etc etc are second nature to me and even if i didn't want to i'd be doing one of these forms of phys pretty much 5 days a week. So this is the first question/ part of my little life I need advice on. On these phys sessions we get pretty much smashed till we're all hangin out, 5 days a week. This isn't exactly a problem, I'm happy enough to do 2 sessions a day on the days I'd be boxing training but I'd be interested to know if there are any supplements out there that could give me a bit of extra energy? I'm not interested in steroids and I don't want to go down the 'red bull' route either.
The next part I have a question about is more directly related to boxing training. I'm interested in starting to lift weights and put on a bit more muscle as well. This is mainly for my own self satisfaction rather than anything else. Is it possible to be training 5 days a week in work, boxing 2 or 3 times a week and also lifting weights 3 or 4 times a week and still put muscle on? This might sound a little confusing but I'm worried that all the fitness with cancel out any muscle mass put on? I might be being completely stupid here and they might not be related to each other at all. But just something I'd like cleared up in my head.
Anyway thanks for reading and any helpful replies are greatly appreciated
