Not as such.
I'd prefer a little more muscle mass, for stabilty and durabilty, you know?

maybe the file was too big and got binned I'll try something else.

Sorry to hear about the split.

Great to see you back Donny. I remember back when I first started here, you had a goal of getting to 147 or os? Now I have come to the conclusion personally that I can no longer make 70 kg (154lbs) as I did last year, as it took cutting. Plus AIBA switched it to 69 kg I believe making it that much harder, so am trying to find a/the correct way to be 75 kg. Packing on muscle with a balance of cardio and not being caught too short of it essentially.

Why I bring this up, is I wonder if you have a target goal that you feel is realistic? That won't drain you, and that you will feel peak at?

Or will you just give it and see where you end up?

Hey dude
Great to be back training and posting

Yeah I had aimed to make 147 and I had my body fat levels at a level where I thought it would be feasible.

But in recent months my body has changed its mind and my muscle mass has prevented me from even thinking of 147.
I think that my maximum cut will be to 154 now. Even that isn't easy, but discipline and a bit of a struggle will get me there:L

Yeah they changed to 69 for all Senior and international comps, just to have a standardised system.
71 is a lot easier than 69(!)

So the 10th of June....

Came into the gym at 7.
Shadowboxed 5 minutes.
Skipped 3 Minutes.
10 x 3's sparring (with White Collar guys, rough n ready.)

Then left the boxing gym (without stretching)

Went to BJJ training.
2 rds passing guard (1 defense, 1 attack)
2 rds moving/defending (1 defense, 1 attack)
2 rds sweeping (1 defense, 1 attack)
2 rds armbar from under (1 defense, 1 attack)
Passing guard drill (Barrell, Squat&Rudder, Push Pull, Over, ThruMiddle

Free Rolling 30 mins....

In agony with a locked calf afterward!!!
But the feeling of satisfaction after was nearly equal
