  • Nutrition education is critical to reach the next level in your boxing career! What you put in your body will impact how you feel and ultimately perform during your training sessions. In this video, I go over my method of calculating how many calories I should be eating to fuel my boxing training and optimize my performance and recovery. I also share the composition of those calories which come from Protein, Carbs, and Fats.
    I use an example of a 150 pound or 68 kilogram fighter and breakdown the math for you. The most important thing to do is SIMPLY START. Once you've gathered enough data about yourself and food that you eat THEN you can make adjustments based on your goals whether you're looking to lose weight for an upcoming fight or fuel a taxing training phase.
    Boxing, mixed martial arts, grappling, or other combat sports are different from strictly endurance and strength power sports. It lies somewhere in the middle because you need those short burst bouts of explosiveness but at the same time hold that intensity for several rounds.
    In 7 minutes, I share a complete breakdown of calculating the total daily grams of protein, carbohydrate, and fats to fuel your training. CARBOHYDRATES ARE YOUR FRIENDS.

      Thank you! Yes, boxing is different from various sports but many similarities. I plan on making more nutrition videos with real examples and maybe less numbers lol 🥊

    Great break down here.
    Felt like a refresher for me .
    my background's mainly bodybuilding and power lifting, but I am soon to dip into the Muay thai world. Just for another means of cardio as a fat loss method . But also as an experimental process to see how to balance strength training/Muay Thai across the week .

    Love this. The biggest issues is eating prepped meals. They are boring and then not having the time to make foods which fit your macros. Meal prep companies charge an absolute fortune. Also if you train in the gym 3 times a week for a few hours boxing class, I’m guessing the carbs are too much as they will be stored as fat.

    Very detailed information. A lot of multi syllable high tech words for a simple old man like me. I'm sure you young energetic smart guys have all this down pat and absorbed all this. I was lost when you mentioned multiplier because that meant you were going to do math and then I was lost! Awesome video though sir! Always the professional boxer and coach. Vamanos El Yuyu!

    Diet plan guide for 6 weeks based on your macros? I’ve calculated my macros completely but i dont know how that transfers to structuring a diet correctly. For example if i eat the golden standard of 6 oz of lean meat, some rice and vegetables, do i then calculate the macros of that meal in order to reach the daily goal per category and take that calculation and subtract it to see how much more p c and f i can eat for the rest of day?

  • @02phenom
    @02phenom Год назад +2

    My question is in the strength aspect. I’m considering going to the high intensity training meaning 1 set to failure. In theory That will allow me to lift only 1-2 times per week which opens up the possibility for boxing training more. What would you say about this theory? If you disagree, how do you suggest strength building for boxing? Thank you in advance

    • @cix9420
      @cix9420 Год назад +1

      1 set till failure isn't enough, just do the basics and stick to a routine, and only do functional movements

    Yuyu does macros change if I am on a calorie surplus or a deficit?

    • @ElYuyuBoxing
      @ElYuyuBoxing  2 месяца назад

      Macros wouldn't change too much unless you're in a severe calorie deficit or surplus. As long as you're hitting your protein goal (0.8-1g / pound of Body weight) in a surplus then your fat and carbs can be distributed whichever way makes you stick with the diet better. In a deficit, same concept applies but if you want to maintain performance then aim to lower fat intake and keep carbs as high as your calories allow (assuming fats don't get too low I would say no lower than 15% of your total calories) Just keep in mind, around your immediate training window (pre/intra/post) you don't want to have too many fats so there is no GI upset.

    My biggest thing was not eating enough, I was training 6 times a week 2 times a day eating less than 2000 calories which is not good

    • @johnluis2711
      @johnluis2711 8 месяцев назад

      It's not? I'm trying to make a meal plan but rn, I only eat 2 times a day. I train 5-6 times a week for 3 hours a day. I eat good food but I need a more complete diet. I've been thinking abt switching to a 4-5 meals a day but not sure what to eat for a complete diet. I just started the video so maybe it'll help lol
