I take 3 whey shakes a day in between meals and creatine after weights. I have been training this way on and off for 4 years now.

Up until now I was going 2-3 times a week but now want to get in to serious shape so I want to bump it up to 5-6 days a week. Although I have no plans of ever turning pro I still would like to be the best boxer I can be. I need a weight program that is good for a boxer, because I have noticed in the boxing articles I have read that the bodybuilding workouts I read in “buff” magazines aren’t the best for sports.
