current routine

[them_apples]

Obviously i'll increase things as I gain endurance, but any crit is welcome.

I read up on a lot of this stuff and tried to jam as much stuff in a 5 day space, anaerobic and aerobic.

It's getting pretty hot in the gym now due to the weather warming up, I just tasted the exhaustion today after doing 8 rounds..eek

EDIT, I used to do 5 miles for my running, however I found I couldn't complete the other stuff (I'd be too tired) especially considering I go to my boxing gym as well. (so I dropped it to 3.7 (6km) for now, I'm not training to be a pro...just yet.

Benefits so far:

hooks. seems to really build up the snap and power generated from the core.

stronger legs also help with closing the distance and evading shots.

my 2 cents.

oh yea, every other week, I alternate the weighted pull ups for a run of 120 pull ups in sets of 15.

good suppliments:

CMi 24/7 ( great for recovery)
any Iso protien or multi release formula
No. Explode ( some of you may not like, I liked it for strength days)
Purple K - good creatine with no water retention.

Sounds like a good workout but if you are boxing competively I would cut Day 1 to once a week. I donīt think the day 3 workout is necessary, I donīt think you need to do 400 pushups, 200 body weight squats or 50 one arm pull-ups. Just boxing related workouts - heavy bag, shadow boxing, sparring etc should be enough. I am not a big fan of hitting the tire with hammer workout either, I think it is overrated.
Just an opinion, no expert

Other thing, on day 1 you could substitute pull-ups with chin-ups (palms facing outwards) and then ditch the cable pulldowns. Barbell squats would be better than dumbell squats too if you have a squat rack, if not put some weights in a backpack.

To me it looks like theres a bit much work on the back, I know if I did 16 sets for my back (or 20 if you count squats) then I probably wouldnt be sparring the next day and sparring is the most important part. Try it out and see if you still feel good enough to spar, if you do then I guess its alright for you. (not me lol)

Is this plan built around your sparring days at your gym? cuz if not then I might re consider some of it.

DAY 3 says anaerobic and aerobic...well I dont really see any anaerobic there unless your talking about the pushups and squats which is (to be honest) pretty ****ty anaerobic training.

IMO I think its better to focus on either strength or endurance at one givin time instead of both. Youve got one ass, you cant sit on two horses cuz theyll both want to go different ways. However it doesnt look bad.

There is a well-being, called pain

Downstairs, the doctor left three different medicines in different colored capsules with instructions for giving them dvd copy. One was to bring down the fever, another a purgative, dvd copy, the third to overcome an acid condition. The germs of influenza can only exist in an acid condition dvd ripper, he explained dvd burner. He seemed to know all about influenza and said there was nothing to worry about if the fever did not go above one hundred and four degrees dvd copy. This was a light epidemic of flu and there was no danger if you avoided pneumonia .

pull ups are palms facing outwards, chin ups are inwards.

Day 1 is done only 2 times a week, not 3.

Thanks for the input.

good ideas w/ the backpack squats

the anaerobic and aerobic day is supposed to be exercises that do both at the same time, like repetitive strength building motion. not just 2 different types of workouts. I don't know if this is possible though so I can see your confusion.

The last part is considered a myth by most standards now, building both endurance and strength is entirely possible and can be done at the same time.

thanks

I wasnt saying its not possible to build both, just saying I think a better way to go about it is 1 at a time. Partly cuz im partial to heavy ****

What I dislike of you training routine is that it makes work the same muscle in the same way for consecutive days.


I would seriously consider to use plyometric exercise/medicine ball in your training.

Plus what are you doing in the weekend?
