Boxing and muscle mass?

[07bobber]

I started boxing for cardio, I am trying to keep my protien up. I do 12 2 minute rounds with 30 sec or 1 min rest on 4 different bags. Will this make me loose lean muscle?

it will def help you lose fat, but along with fat loss, their is always a little muscle loss. just keep the protien up and keep lifting and you should be ok

Lots of very muscular boxers out there. George Foreman was a monster as a young man. Marvin Hagler had a great physique. Holyfield and Tyson in their prime, ect.

Yea, keep your diet in check and you should be fine.

If you're training naturally, I'd say bump up your protein to 1.3g per pound of bodyweight. If you're assisted, 1.5g.

my assistance is bioidentical test cream, I was at 326 t level 3 months ago now I am at 657 from taking 100mg ed I am going up to 150mg ed and hope I get to around 800 but I want to be at a 1000

So, basically, you're not really USING. You're maintaining. Use 1.3g.

Any thoughts on using deca to repair your shoulders? Is it soft tissue or bone?

 

[unclem]

^^^ jugger it will work for " lubing" your joints. but its a combanation of bone ect, ect in there. not a expert but it will work nicely brother. good luck. your a bigger guy so i would use 400mg at a shot.

I have a calcium deposit in my shoulder and it is driving me crazy, I cant lift how I want an MRI did not show any other damamge so the Dr wants to scope it and fish it out, I want to recover as fast as possible and get back lifting how I want, right now I avoid any overhead presses, pullups and pull downs and it sucks
