Ever since I was in about 4th grade, I've always been a bigger kid, but over the years I've at times gone up and down a lot. In 7th grade I lost a lost of wright, but eventually put it on, and throughout high school I lost a little bit of fat but put on more muscle. I was always big into weight lifting, but I somehow didn't see my weight drop like I wanted, and then when I joined the boxing club at my school, I stopped lifting weights in order to drop weight.
The highest I remember myself being when I weighed myself at the gym was 264, though I don't remember exactly when it was. I believe it was sometime between September and now. As of right now, I've dropped down to 238, but I still want to drop much more weight. I'm 6'1, and I'm hoping I can get down to about 200 as soon as possible, though I don't want to have to go the David Haye route and lose 14 pounds in 2 days.
Being that everyone on here usually gives constructive criticism and good advice on losing weight, I wanted to know what you guys think I should do in order to drop weight effectively and fast. My workout usually consists of (non-Boxing Club days):
1. An hour on the tredmill, where I have a slight warm-up and run for a half-hour straight increasing speed and incline accordingly, and by the end of the workout I burn somewhere between 800-850 calories depending on if I run longer/how I feel.
2. 3-5 rounds on the speed bag (the gym has a boxing studio). I time it by the song lengths, which are usually longer than 3 minutes.
3. 1-4 rounds on the Heavy Bag, again timed by songs.
4. Sometimes, jump rope/shadowboxing with bands/regular shadowboxing/double end bag.
On days I work out with the club, we usually start with a pretty intense conditioning dril that varies according to the day, do rounds on the mitts, shadowbox, jump rope, pushups, different tactical drills and sometimes sparring.
