Supplements for a Boxer

[southpawwolves]

Hey everyone I just wanted to ask a few questions about supplements. I have read through the sticky thread but I would like to know what supplements I as a boxer should take. I have a good diet but should I be getting more from taking any supplements? I definitely don't want to put on weight but is there anything that will help me with training and is it worth taking a protein supplement? Also what are the best brands for the supplements I need and can anyone recommend any (uk) links? Cheers everyone

Anything other than whey protein and creatine monohydrate isn't worth the money.

You could spend every penny you earn on supplements the manufacturers insist that you require.
The reality is, that as a boxer a correct nutritional plan will fuel your lifestyle and maintain your health more than adequately.

Supplements are used by boxers primarily for convenience. A good blend of recovery protein is useful when finishing a tough session and looking to avoid soreness.

I guess I'd also recommend Omega 3 Fish Oils, but that is more of a supplement for life than sports
