Hi Latino
From personal experience any boxing training will not build bulk as such, but will build fast-twitch muscles - lean toned muscle. I might be totally wrong - so please correct me if I am!Â
I used to lift weights and was 12.5 stone about 1.5 years ago - I stopped doing weights and started training at a boxing gym. My weight now is a little over 11 stone, but when I still try and lift weights I'm nearly as strong as I was when I was weight training, although I'm 1.5 stone lighter!
I traing 3-4 times a week doing a very hard session with a few pro's. This involves circuits, pad work and sparring.
I look crap compared to what I used to look like (apart from my abs), but my speed, fitness and power is a lot better than when I did weights. My advice would be, if you want to look good and keep semi fit then keep up what you are doing!
If you want to go bang at the boxing, cut out the weigths!
Good Luck!
