    Question How to move up in weight for boxing??

    So the title explains? what rep-range should I be going for to move up in weight (I used to be at 62 kilos, moving up to Welterweight which is 67 kilos). At the moment I'm at around 64/65 but I can't seem to find any resources on how to increase weight without slowing down or burning out too quick. I figured someone could give me some advice. -Thanks

    just focus on bodybuilding. I recommend the booko championship bodybuilding by chris aceto he goes over everything in the book. Just lift and get your nutrition in order and learn how to do it properly-goodluck

    For Boxing I would recommend heavy weight training 3-6 reps in compound movements that you are lifting explosively whilst also using body-weight exercises for higher reps. In order to gain weight you need to increase the calories you are taking in daily, this doesn't mean that you can eat whatever you want. Try eating more quality whole foods eating 300-500 more calories a day than you currently are. This is only a guideline, if you gain weight to quickly scale the food back or vice versa. Putting on muscle mass is hard work and takes a lot of time so be patient with it and focus on getting stronger.

    Thanks so much guys, so low reps with compound movements and higher reps for body weight. Talked to a coach about it as well and he advised me to do the same. Hope this helps anyone that was also facing this problem. -Thanks

    I wouldn't necessarily advise low reps. more like 6-12 reps. you can do low reps however if not done with proper form you can an easier time of tearing your tendons and when this happens it takes a whole long time to get them better, if they get better at all
