I've always found that there are limits to what you can sensibly squeeze in every week. Professional atheletes can afford to train for 3+ hours each day because they can spread it out across an entire working day. For most of us, our training has to take place before and/or after our working day, which invariably means we're trying to exert ourselves at times of the day which are less than ideal.

Boxing is an incredible workout, but requires a lot of energy. Working hard in the gym (by which I don't mean cruising on the crosstrainer for 20 mins, jogging for 20 mins, then doing a few half-hearted bicep curls) requires a great deal of energy too, which also means recovery. If you start doing more than your working week allows you to recover from, it really will start to get on top of you. Your muscles won't repair, you perhaps aren't feeding yourself what you need to be, and all of a sudden, you can really turn yourself off training. It's far better to operate within your limits, and to get three GOOD hard training sessions in each week, than it is to get to the stage where you're reluctantly dragging yourself to the gym, tired and sore before you've even started.

I'd love the luxury of a career which allowed me the time and support (e.g. physiotherapy) to train for several hours each day, but I think I missed that boat! That's not to say that great gains can't be made by those who have "normal" jobs :)

Do you think you'll take your boxing training any further and get in the ring for real?

now im not heavy on training, im just doing my bit to body build and condition myself

but ive just started on a new muscle group and its wrecked me, put me off training for a 3rd day running now

but i dont sleep properly on my work days, i work at 6am and ive always been a late sleeper, so im getting 5 hours max a night, 4 days of the week

so when i begun training abs and lower abs the other day, i done them 2 days in a row and i was knackered for the 2 following days

i will do them again today but gingerly


its basicly 50 sit ups with a 3kg weight behind my head, then 30 leg raises, each set in one go
but i need to do it, been focusing on arms and chest too much lately :P

Tell you what lads shall everyone take loads of energy drinks pump the f**k out of themselves down the gym blast loads of steroids and beat lumps out of each other at FITP. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Wait forgot then this is a car club/forum is it not.
I can't see what you are acheiving my moaning about threads you have made because somebody hasn't bought something off you etc etc, speaking to people like a 12 year old with really a bad attitude problem and name calling ffs and then ask for your account to be removed. Man whats the problem. This is a car forum for people who have a love for cars not attitude we get at home off the wife/girlfriend/boyfriend or gay lover. I read some of you posts sometimes and honestly can't get at what you're saying. if you read back say the last 100 posts you have made how many can you tell me you can understand completely.
Maybe you got issues in your life atm mate i don't know but surely all this bitchy stuff as got to stop

eat a healthy portion of protien before and after training buddy, it helps a lot with recovery and muscle growth. i train roughly 4 to 5 days a week, 1 week consentrating more on cardio and then one week more on weights etc.... good fluid intake is vital to hydrate your system. it all helps :)
