Hi, im going to start boxing again in a few weeks and have designed a regime. I was wondering if anyone could tell me whether or not it is suitable for boxing and adivise me on how i could improve it.
It currently looks like this:
Monday:
3x5 squat
3x5 bench press
1x5 deadlift
2x8 dips
Tuesday:
Boxing training (about 2 hours- involves circuit training, pad work, bag work, plyometrics)
Wednesday:
3x10 one arm dumbell swings
3x8-12 clean and jerks (will eventually lift heavier with this one, but wanted to start light since i’ve never done it before).
3x10-15 - One arm dumbbell snatches
Thursday:
Boxing training (same as tuesday)
Friday:
3x5 Squat
3x5 Standing military press
3x5 Bent-over barbell Rows
2x max wide-grip pull ups
Saturday:
2 mile run (800M repeats)
Sunday:
Sparring class (warm up followed by several rounds of light sparring)
i’ve boxed before for a short time but didn’t really get into it. Well i’ll be on this routine once i go to uni in a few weeks. However right now i don’t want the routine to be overly strenuous since i’ll be quite busy with uni work. Also because i’m just getting back into it after a long break (currently doing some basic lifting and cardio 5x a week after 2 months of doing f-all.
I would appreciate any help given and please do criticize it if you think somethings is unsuitable.
thanks in advance
