Hello, boys and girls.
I have lost track of my training over the last month due to various shit.
Exams finish Jan 29th, 1st Feb I commence all manner of my crazy training as I was doing nicely for a couple months before the silliness in December.
I train like this:
Mon Wed Fri Boxing
Tue Thurs Sat Sun Weights
But will cut out Thursday, the accumulated fatigue is too much. So Thurs will be a dreaded REST DAY!!!!!
The gym I box out of is highly respected in Manchester and Joe Murray of the Olympic team trained there up until very recently as well as his brother. I have great difficulty keeping up with the conditioning but it does me a great deal of good and will get me fight ready. My goal with boxing is to get my first fight(s) by the summer, by the time this season finishes really. I hope I can achieve this.
I also enjoy my weightlifting quite a lot. It is nice to see progressions, that's the difference from boxing, boxing is a long term slog that takes a while to reap the benefits and needs mental strength to keep going on, while weightlifting is like a day off for me compared to boxing, gratification is with the numbers going up.
My strength is superior to my endurance mainly because I avoided endurance stuff too much, no more though.
Current lifting numbers are, in kg:
Deadlift 165+
Squat 125+
Bench 85+
Military Press 65+
DB Rows 50kgx12, 40kgx30
Pullups 15-20 wide-ish grip
I put + because those were the last time I checked them. I am quite pleased because since I started trianing seriously a while ago they have progressed nicely and I have lost weight too.
I weight 153lbs steady, and am 177cm tall.
In a few months when I am hopefully ready for some fighty fighty I will see what weight class would be best suited for me and bulk a bit or lose a bit accordingly.
50 burpees I can do in about 4 minutes or less, I hate distance running but have learnt to dig deep. Especially longer sprints like 800m I despise.
So yes, this log will be mainly stagnant for the time being.
Good idea for a forum!
