As some have already said; buy some Glutamine powder to mix in with your protein. Optimum Nutrition has a 600gram container that should last you quite awhile. You only need 1 tablespoon per shake.
For a good protein powder, check out IDS' Multi-Pro Whey. I've found that their flavors are far better than other companies (I mix mine with water only) and they offer up to a 10lb bucket which is the largest I've seen. See if you can find a local supplement shop that's NOT GNC and you should be able to find it for around $49.99
idssports.com <----manufacturer's website
* Again, try to find this locally and you'll get a MUCH better deal....most shops are willing to match or beat the online price sans shipping, of course.
Also, I recommend the banana flavor

Thanks guys, i have been taking the shakes since last week and it was a great idea. I take one right after every work out and i haven't even been getting sore.
I got a few recipes for meal replacement shakes and they keep me full for half the calories i'd get if i hate a "normal" meal.
I'm at 259 pounds now, so i lost another 8 pounds.

Monday:
Streching.
6 rounds of shadow boxing, 3 normal rounds and the other 3 i use 3 pounds dumbells to shadowbox.
2 rounds of maze bag with a little shadow boxing. But i mostly work on foot work and head movement.
2 rounds of double end bag.
I finish with plyometrics. I do medicine ball slams and throws, and do a couple of exercises to work my core.
Later on i do push ups, sit ups, dips and pull ups.
Tuesday:
Streching.
2 rounds of shadow boxing to warm up.
6 rounds of heavy bag.
Go for a 5 miles run.
Wednesday:
Same as monday.
Thursday:
Same as Tuesday.
Friday:
Weight lifting day.
Bench press 4 series of 6 reps
Overhead press 3 series of 8 reps
Curls 3 series of 8 reps(I do i different type of curl of each serie)
Triceps 2 series of 10
Deadlift 3 series of 6
Squats 2 series of 8
Front and side raises 2 series of 10 each
Shrugs 3 series of 10
I also do exercises for my back and core but i don't know what they are named.
Saturday: Rest.
Friday kills me but i want to keep my focus on boxing and lifting doesn't fit well with my other days.

Just weighted myself, 243 pounds and it's not morning, i have ate and had plenty of water today.
Protein shakes were a great idea, i'm not as sore as i used to be and i have much more energy.
I got some whey protein with some supplements in it, it was pretty expensive but it's definitely worth the money.

take isopure protein.
mix the protein powder with some fruit juice (ie orange, apple, etc), don't mix it with water, you'll just piss out.
you're a big mofo, you need a lot of protein. you should be drinking a protein shake as soon as you wake up, as soon as you're done training (immediately), and before going to bed.
also, do dynamic stretching before training and static stretching after training. never do static stretching before training - never.Last edited by poopchuteboxe; 08-08-2010, 07:45 PM.
