Big kid. You'll be 6'3+" 200+ lbs by the time you reach 21. Goodluck with the everyday routine.

@Youngblood I probably put sunday as rest day, thanks for advice and I also try to add sprint work.

@The congressman I think ive hit somewhere close to my maximum height already but hopefully I might end up 6"3

Going to supermarkets/groceries today. I might add a protein shake on the muscle training day and a multivitamin with breakfast. This starts tomorrow.

- Sunday 13th December - I was going to start this tomorrow but I couldn't wait so I ate most of the stuff on my usual food intake list and did a 3 mile run in about 27 minutes which is a bit slow considering my best time is 22:36

I plan on adding something to eat after 5:30 about 8-ish after my run. Probbably some source of dairy/calcium like cottage cheese or milk.

cottage cheese is a good end of a workout day food, because of the slow-digesting casein protein content. I think it is wise of you to consider your protein intakes post workout, as I see you are thinking about supping wth whey also, given the extensive cardio you have planned.

Wednesday 16 December - I've stuck to my diet but I havn't exercised.

Thursday 17 December - Same to above.

I break up from school tomorrow for afew weeks so I will be more focoused on training. My boxing gym has closed for Christmas and New year and it re-opens on the 6th of Januany. I'm thinking of stuff to add that doesnt require a gym. Maybey I'll see if I can turn my gargage into boxing gym.

Here is a good thread for strength conditioning. All bodyweight/plyometrics stuff. No gym required. Read thru whole thread as there is lots there.

For considering how to do them, personally I use a tabata based protocol. Where I go from one exercise to another, usually series/sets of 10-12 exercises doing 30 secs per each. You can take a 10 or so sec break in between each exercise to replicate. At the end of each set a 1 min break.

Start with one set, then maybe 2...upwards to 4 or so as you progress. This is very taxing. But it will build strength and explosiveness. I'd consider a well-balanced look at overall body work, core, legs, upperbody and try to mix it up a bit within the sets when choosing what to do, making sure you are targetting all areas.

Be sure to fuel your workout properly by loading up on carbs 2 hrs or so before, and getting some carbs but more importantly protein in you after. A whey protein shake is best 5-10 mins after workout, but if not that, then some other protein rich food.

Just some thoughts to consider for strength training for boxing.
