Too much espically for a boxer if that is your goal. I would drop the weights to 2 full body workouts a week. Hitting the speed, heavy and jab bags is also a workout that hits the delts, lats and chest big time.

Why don't you join the boxing club now instead of doing seal training?

I am not joining the club now because Im not enrolled at that university yet


Thanks for the advice foreman...I'll think about changing a couple things..as is I am weight training 3 times per week so maybe that third time I can do some boxing and weight training on the same day
