If its boxing you do I would work on some other kinds of core work as well. Use different variations like a rotational core workout and a stabilization core workout:

Stab.-Bird dogs, Planks, Bridges, etc...

Rotational-Wood Chops, Medicine ball twists, etc...

If you have tremors for more than a few hours AFTER you work out ... that's bad. I've had tremors from either under hydrating after training, or from not putting enough nutrients back into my system post.

If your aches in a muscle become a lasting burning pain that's bad. Cease and desist from training until you get advice if that ever happens.

If your aches linger ... like in your legs ... for more than a few days that too is bad. THE WORST mistake you can make is to be too eager to make progress and over train. 90% of the time that I've ever over trained (before I came here I was a dumb ass and injured my RC's, my hams and my rt bicep ... and I over did it on core but that just resulted in me tossing my cookies. Ohhh and ... I over did it on the tread mill once and after I got off I became so light headed I literally passed out :wacko:) I was not aware that I was damaging myself while in the moment. Said another way, if you are getting too close to a fire you feel it and react. You'll pull your hand away and prevent a serious burn. In lifting I often did not know I was messing up until it was too late ... there was no pulling away. I knew on the RC's ... I felt it pop right away but it was still too late. My hamies and my bicep on the other hand ... I was clueless until it was way too late. The deal done went down.

You are here at Im. You have two distinct advantages. You have youth, and a wealth of knowledge right here from your fellow IM members at your disposal. Why hurry? Take your time, build a routine ... post it and be cautious.

I hope this makes sense danny.

Hey Danny this is a great journal and monster workouts my friend.
My approach is different although we somewhat have the same thing in mind. I am training boxing 3-4 days a week and I lift two times a week. I rest on sundays mostly and wednesdays if I feel burned out.

I am not in any shape to be in MMA although I love watching it, so I am now doing mostly boxing routines. I want to incorporate other exercises to go with my goal and my capabilities. If I may, I will borrow some of your exercises if I think they'll help me get thinner. Oh, by the way, I am a fatty. I am using boxing routines to sweat a whole lot and lose some weight, but need to add ab work to firm up my belly and as per my friend Double D, some plyos to balance things out...

Either way, sorry for the banter as I have nothing to offer since you pretty much know what you are doing, and good luck

Keep up the great work :thumb:

do some more cardio.

Little more difficult than that my friend. Diet is where the key is to weight loss. Cardio helps, but you can drop bf from diet alone.

I wish you the best.

To answer your question, nop, I don't box, I am way too pretty to get myself all broken up...:D

Actually, I love the sport and the like, I used to box back in the day but quit for football.

Don't have a trainer, just working out myself. Doing it specifically to lose the weight. For me, at the moment, this is cardio. I am going to be traveling this week, but when I get back, I am going to have a stress test done so that I can jog and try to do a bit of HIIT and give my wrist a rest for a while. I am hoping that will do the trick, but meanwhile I have been doing a little shadow, a little bag, a little speed bag, lifting a bit and bouncing around a whole lot....
