I'm a boxer who trains 3 to 6x a week (depending on whether I have a fight coming or not), but I'm trying to bulk up and move up. I'm gonna do a PPL split in the morning, before my boxing workouts at noon, how does it look?

>Push day
Bench press 4x12
Incline db press 4x12
Clap pushups 4x15
OHP 4x15
Lateral raises 4x15
Tricep pushdown 4x15
Neck extensions 3 mins

>Pull day
Weighted pullups 4x12
Seated row 4x12
Face pulls 4x12
Shrugs 4x12
Hammer curls 4x12
Twisting cable rows 4x12
Farmers walk 3 sets
Wrist curls 4x15

>Legs
RDL 3x12
Squat 4x12
Walking or jumping weighted lunges 4x12
Box jumps 4x12
Bulgarian split Squat 4x12
Hip abductor/adductor machine 3x12 each
Hip thrusts 3x12
Calf raises 4x12

I already do an ab circuit every day after boxing training.

Is this too much volume? Meme exercises? I'm trying to mix compound movements with exercises that complement my sport and will improve explosivity

My two cents but you dont need this much
Replace two or three exercises on your leg day with clean and jerks or power snatches
>>
>>76584052
Id just do bench narrow them wide same session + back, delts and or incline next session and arms, pick one after a rest day maybe then rest 1-2 days. Add other shit during or over rest days but not enough to keep fatigue too high weekly like legs abs more arms/delts.

Do power/speed reps beginning of workout and fill out shit.

>make it a 10 day lifting week if bulking
>do the heavy upper body always and do heavy aux and hypertrophy work if arms/delts are lagging

Always gotta be focusing bench/incline/dips/mp/btb. Rear delts lats need consistent work. Legs i like cleans dls strict front/back squats and lunges/uni leg press. Abs ofc heavy and leg raises/windshield wipers/practicing kicks hard.

If you don't eat a lot you won't "bulk up" and move up no matter what you lift. Your program looks like a pretty typical weight training program and it'll likely get the job done for general fitness, but probably lacks enough specificity for boxing.

If you are trying to improve explosivity, I'd look at the exercises this guy does:

>boxing
Front delts and punch grip delt biased presses/dips for no wind up hard punches
>>
>>76584116
Tris/forearms are nice, deep forearm wrist work with dbs like preachers will help you 100% a full body punch through
>>
Can't give you advice on the weights but I will say that you gotta be getting at least 7km of roadwork in a day if your serious about your fights
>>
>>76584317
10k runs and 1h jump rope every other day

Too much tricep work will slow down your punches. Power will come from posterior and back in your punches mostly, additionally from your shoulders if you're a hooker.

You're trying to do endurance exercises with weights which are made for strength exercises. Does your fighting gym do any sort of bodyweight conditioning before or after training sessions? You'd be better off using that for your endurance portion of overall training. I'd say do low volume, 1-2 sets of 5-7 reps for your weight workouts and have a gnarly bodyweight conditioning routine. Athletic workouts like bear crawls, broad jumps, pushups, sit-ups, mountain climbers, etc. This way you're maximizing strength gains with weights and maximizing endurance gains through high rep stuff that covers some cardio as well. Your weight sessions will drain less energy and demand less recovery, and your endurance will be on point for the function you're applying it to.

I'm not supposed to be posting legit advice here because you faggots ban for racism. Fucking censorship pushing cowards. But you all are so wrong about training it's not even funny. No your retarded roidtranny high volume shit isn't going to make you a better boxer lmao.

I've always put a lot of work in triceps and have a solid snappy punch. When I started doing chest flies hoping it would improve my hook/haymaker power, oddly enough it signifi5 slowed it. Which leads me to suspect my bench work has slowed my push punch power, because those have always been shit and I've always benched. One pretty serious amateur boxer I knew was against lifting because he said it slows people down, and puts them in a higher weight class they might not be as formidable in. I don't think a lot of serious boxers do intense lifting routines, especially not bodybuilder bloatshit.

PPL is probably not ideal for boxing, look into more sports/athleticism oriented strength programs like the conjugate method
>>
just train like boxers
tons of pushups, situps, wrist conditioning, runs/sprints, plyometrics, skipping

Check out that pdf OP. Ross is the man, and I got a lot of creative training approaches from him throughout the years. This is a program tailor made for a boxer, and not leaving any holes, but also not doing anything redundant or unnecessary.

Bench/delts/tris/bis/abs/forearms will slow your punches for up to 2wks after a hard session. Same with legs and cns fatigue.

They slow you because theyre the muscles you use. So power/speed training will slow you more temporarily, but size/strength is always good to have. Youll notice 6mo of training and 1mo of rest youre just better across the board.
>>
>>76584052
do more landmines, clean and jerks, split jerks, reaction speed drills, med ball throws, 200-800m repeats

you're not trying to express power in 12 reps over half a minute, you're trying to get to your spot in fractions of a second

That is way too much volume and if you were actually a boxer with a fight your coach would tell you this is retarded.
Pick 2-3 exercise per session, do low volume, 2-3 sets, 3-5 reps but every single rep you move the weight as fast as humanly possible, make sure you don't go to failure, use a weight you can rep out for 2 more reps but by moving the weight as fast as possible that will make it intense enough that you get stronger and faster.
Finish your workout with one exercise taken to failure for 1-2 sets, preferably perform each rep with a slow eccentric which will allow for failure quicker and a fast explosive concentric which will develop athletism.

If you do what you wrote you will be burn out very quickly and even for hypertrophy only is too much volume and even if you stick to that program you will be very slow and stiff you won't have any power.

too much bullshit, too much volume. Watch the sika boys: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GFwhFIpT1o

You really need to train like a thrower/weightlifter.
>>
>>76584052
Just do full body, don't complicate things. There's a reason full body is the standard for weight training while also training martial arts.
>>
>>76584052
Your a boxer not a bodybuilder.
So train like a boxer.

retard, didn't read further

Boxers do train with weights, but they don't just follow generic bodybuilding programs
>>
>>76586507
Only because they don't have enough time/energy so they have to compress their program to the bare bones of strength barbell lifts
>>
>Don King era Tyson pic
y'all niggas getting trolled
>>
>>76584052
wayy too much volume, too many reps/sets, you should be doing 3-10 reps not 12-15. PPL is bad because you're only hitting your muscles once a week.

Are you trying to gain muscle or train for boxing cause you're not doing either correctly.
