Supplements list question

hey, i just want to make sure this is a good list of supplements to be taking for boxing. i'm 6'2 175 going to get down to probably 165, boxing 5 days a week and obviously running also

-multivitamin - balanced essentials by heaven sent

-pseudoephedrine for opening up airways

-triflex to help joints

-protein formula:
1 scoop optimum nutrition 100% whey protein vanilla
1 tablespoon soy lecithin granules
1/3 banana
3 ice cubes
2 cups skim milk

my goal is to stay lean and get ripped basically a typical boxer's build, this list was reccomended to me and i just want to make sure this sounds good, so what do you guys think

I stay away from dairy when preparing for a match ., For me Milk products make me feel bloated. and also cause phlegm and stuffiness. I use water or juice with my shake.. just my opinion . Everything else looks fine.. eat lean meats veggies and add pasta to your diet . its very important to Carb load before your match . The high intensity of boxing requires more carbohydrates. When you reach 75% of VO2 Max (75% of your maximum oxygen uptake) carbohydrate replaces fat as the bodys major fuel source .
If you don’t have enough carbohydrate in your system, you drastically reduce your speed, stamina and recovery time. Hope this helps ! Good luck mate ! O0

pseudoephedrine....do you have a problem with your airways? How old are you? If your young and fit then these could just be a waste of money.

Id suggest taking cod liver oil aswell, i dont know much about triflex but CLO helps joints plus a million and one other things.

i'm 18, i have no problems with my airways, someone just suggested i could take pseudoephedrine before running because it would really open up my lungs, you're right i don't need that though i was just curious if anyone else knew about it

and yeah i also found out triflex is pretty worthless

i also forgot to mention fish oil, sounds like it's one of the most healthy things you can take so i'm going to definitely buy some of that

pseudoephirine, can raise blood pressure to a dangerous level... watch this as you may already be red lining your heart on particular hard cardio days. i'd say drop it and try tabaata protocol for cardio boost 1-2 times a week.also pseud eph is a stimulant and well that may go against some purist rules for legal enhancements...

I like anabolic steroids. Good for the heart.
