Default A fighter's journal

Hey guys, I don't know if any of you remember me. I used to post here a while back but kinda gradually drifted away. I'm back because I bought Leigh Peele's FLT and she suggested this as a good place to keep an accountability journal.


I'm an amateur boxer tentatively scheduled to have my debut fight in September and I need to drop about 15-20lb by then. Obviously I also need to bust my ass in the gym and do a bunch of sparring. My coach is currently out of the country coaching the USA Boxing team in some international championship, so no sparring until he gets back in early June.

The reason I'm starting this new journal is because I really need the accountability. I don't have anyone here local who can or will keep me accountable on my eating. My plan is to check in here every day with an update on my diet and training. Hopefully I'll have some cool/funny/embarrassing stories about my boxing training.

For diet, I'm following Leigh Peele's Fat Loss Troubleshoot, basically counting every Calorie and weighing/measuring everything.

For weights, I'm following the New Rules of Lifting for Women

For cardio I'm doing a lot of running. Some days are boxing-specific intervals of 3min work to 1min rest, other days will be longer slower walk/runs. I have a treadmill so that helps.

Current supps are multivitamin, fish oil, 3g creatine daily, and Superpump250 pre-a.m workouts.

Beginning stats: 145lb, 27.3% bf. Here's some links to the photos.

Wow. I'm fat. Time to get to work!
