been reading the combat sport forum like for one and a half hour, and couldn't find anything really useful to me.

i've been lifting for 2 years, now i'm really interested on lowering my bf%.

i weight 260, 6'0" and i'm currently lifting 5 days a week, i'm alaso on a low carb diet.
Split looks like this

mon: ME DL, plus back work
tues: ME bench, plus tris, shoulder
wedn: legs (squat, romain dl, split squat)
thur: off
fri: DE bench, plus tris, shoulder
sat: legs (front squat, good mornings, splits)
sun: off

as you can see, the volume it's a little high, and i recently joined a boxing gym, and i really like it, but seems like i can't handle lifting and boxing 5 days a week, so what should i do?

will only lifting 3 times a week while boxing make the trick?, my goal is only to keep strength and lose fat (not gaining muscle, stregth and lose fat all at the same time)

Ditch the low carb diet and actually eat some food, i.e form a calorie deficient. How are you lifting for 2 years and still asking questions like this, research before you post, and don't think that boxing or any other combat sport is the cureall for a shitty diet, if your fat before you worked out, your fat as you work out and think you can add more to lifting 4 days a week you need a reality check and realize your intensity is not in your workouts, your cardio is not sufficient, so adding three things that you do below margin will not help you lose weight.

Now with the flaming done go research

Just Pm me or repost in one of those two forums.

i hear you boys, and yes, i look like a troll ( don't wanna be it).

so i'll reformulate my post.

i want to train box seriously, but i'm fucking overwheight, so i should lose some fat first, the routine i posted was given to me, i was supposed to do that routine along with 5 days of cardio for a month, then switch to a 4 days split.

that was for background.

maybe i just didn't search enought, i'll keep researching, but any help it's really welcome.

and know that search function isn't the best

my apologies to all, i came here and wanted you to solve my problesm, that was the problem ;).

so i come with specific questions, just forget about everything i posted.

so my weight regimen should look like


WORKOUT 1
DE Lower Body
ME Upper Body
Posterior chain lower movement
DB press variation
Lat/Upper back superset
Abs

WORKOUT 2
ME Lower Body
Upper Body movement (chin-up or push-up variation)
lower body movement
Shrug variation super-setted with rear delt movement
Grip training
Weighted abdominals

and i'll be boxing 5 days a week (mon-fri), will pay a lot of attention on conditioning, and aerobic work.

the boxing classes are at 8:00 am, now i'll look for info about diet.

is this ok while i'm triying to cut weight??

I agree on FightingIrish being one of the most knowledgeable on this forum regarding combat sports.

By the way, my body reacts terribly to high volume routines. I don't know why, but I handle a few whole body workouts way better than a lot of lifting. Otherwise I end up hurting myself somehow. Some folks are not like this, and can handle a lot more volume. For them, something different may be advisable. This is just my experience.

today i went to my boxing class, like 7:00 am, and asked the trainer about weight training.
he asked me what were my 3 primary goals, and i told him

1: learn to box
2: lower my bodyfat %
3: keep or even increase my strength.

so he told me not to train more than 3 timwes a week, i was amazed when he told me about the DL,BP and Squat.
he told me to devote one training to each lift, and do light accesory work, he told me that for now that was going to help me, that making my road work, eating clean and with all the accesory work, i will drop weight, so i came home and researched, and found 5/3/1, wich is the program i'll use.

what do you think guys?
