weight training

[Home town hero]

Their seems to be a common belief that weight training restricts your speed. (I use the term weight training loosly as the number of reps and percentage of your 1 max rep you lift can effect results greatly) Here is my situation im about 5ft 10 and weight 144-147 usually closer to 147,depending when i weight my self. I have to dehydrate down to 141 or would u reccamend weight training and gaining 8 or so lbs and fighting at welter. I am fairly thin so i think that my body would be stronger if i packed on a few lbs. Any advice welcome

when you wrap your thumb and longest finger around your wrist they probably over lap im thinking your a small frame if so you could still probaly lose a few pounds and be just fine. if they just touch your more so med so i think your at an about right weight for that if anything i would go up to welter and same with if your fingers dont touch at all which means you have a large frame
