just wanted to add to this thread that its completely unfair that you got ripped like that eating pizza and ice cream

Well I dont do that EVERY day.....

I do have a weakness for wendy's and burger king though... but its just the shakes and i figure those go through you very quickly....plus its basically liquids.

But yea i dont finish every night with icecream... i might tonight now that you mentioned it...

And I'm gonna buy some nuts and tuna fish... I'm so hyped about this diet man.. its great.... I can feel my stomach gettin smaller... I'm keeping my size.. i don't feel weak.. and im eating all the time...

This is GREAt..


EVERYONe should get on this type of diet if they are boxing..try it for a week and see how great it is... I seriously suggest to atleast try it for a week.<---me and the diet.

I think what you eat and how many overall calories you take in (in relation to how much exercise you do in a day) determines if you lose weight, alot more than whether you eat 6 small meals a day or 3 large meals.

While working your metabolism on a 3-4 hour basis is probably better than having 2-3 big meals daily, you still need to realize that if you eat more calories than you expend, you will gain weight.

after my last post i see you already made a similar point!

Eating every 4 hours....

EVERY 4 HOURS... it works.. I actually lost weight each day eating what i wanted but every 4 hours... And that was without running and training.


Just wanted to let everyone who wasn't sure about that or starving themselves or running ridiculously or dehydrating till the point of failure.


eating every 4 hours works... yea i saw a bunch of guys posting it... but i never tried it...

just wanted to post this for some guys who might have been like me.

If you eat often you lose weight while maintain muscle...its funny how simple it is but most boxers just starve themselves they are thickheaded and go the oldschool route instead of doing the meals 3-4 hours to lose fat.

Yeah, eating often is the way to go as it really gets your metabolism going!

I eat every 2-3 hours.

It's just not that simple. It's not like anyone who eats often will lose weight, and more importantly, continue to lose weight. If that was true, DA1 could maintain his muscle mass and compete at featherweight at some point in the future.
Most high level boxers go several pounds below the weight they're comfortable at, eating more often is not the answer, cutting calories out of their diets is.

I had a fighter who walked around at 138 lbs, which was the lowest weight he was comfortable at. He fought at 125, and getting there was a matter of eating less and less as weigh in approached. He ate 6-8 times a day except in the last week.

If eating more often makes you lose weight, it's because you're way above the weight you can get to.

HMMMMM...... i went to 195 from my fight weight *(165)* now im 174..... i usually feel drained and horrible around this point in making weight and just sweat the rest of it out for my 2 day tournaments... but i actually feel great now, and haven't even been sweating crazy like i usually aim for... running 2-3 times the day to make sure im 167 atleast...

I feel if i continue this i can maintain 165 easily... that good?
did i mention my energy is BETTER than ever compared to my other methods of the past around this tiem of making weight.



MORE KNOWLEDGE PLEASE!!!

first off on that last thing about eating more often making you lose weight it snot because you are way above the weight you can get too...its because eating more often and just enough makes the metabolism speed up if you eat huge ass meals instead of small ones your digestive system will slow down making you put on more fat, eating just to fuel your body with small portions 6 to 8 times a day will make you burn more fat by speeding the metabolism faster.

If you are eating "CLEAN" and just a handful and not till full then you will lose fat...the rest is water weight...the science is muscle burns more calories then fat.

If you get a good nutritionist they will make a diet but too many boxing trainers or boxing guys are old school and have to much pride to hire one...they rather their guy starve to make weight which is messed up.

well of course metabolism has much to do with it...but my cousin is a dietitian and personal trainer and he has taken some of the fattest people you would know and swiped a good 50 pounds of a few weeks with diet alone.

its all about what you eat and the timing along with workouts it takes tons of discipline but in the end it can be achieved might take longer for some but unless you have a thyroid problem that makes you fat easy it can be done.
