  • I was just finalizing my little excel spreadsheet when I saw this challenge. I have lurked on mfp many times and used it on and off. When I use it I see results, when I don't use it I also see results (just in the wrong direction). I spent much of 2016 ill, in and out of bed with an infection that lasted 10 months. It…

  • Thanks for the detailed feedback. I think a circuit style approach might switch things up for the better. The calories are low because I am trying to make weight for a bout in 3 weeks so I don't think I want to increase calories until after that. On the 1700 cals, I normally use sedentary as the basis for my BMR…

  • Yes that was not exactly clear. My goal is to be light, not stay light, since as you pointed out I am 10 lbs over.

  • I do western boxing and kickboxing. Kickboxing sparring every Tuesday and boxing sparring usually one weekend day and maybe one week night with lot's of technique and conditioning sprinkled throughout the week. It's the best way to workout. No time for boredom! Feel free to friend me here. I am kind of a lurker on this…

  • ah good topic. :) I have a couple of short 'go to' combinations I always use when I feel like I need to land something. They are simple, but work. I'm orthodox if that helps visualize. 1) Jab, cross, right roundhouse kick to the head. This works for a couple reasons. The jab backs them up, the cross is in their face and…

  • Based on the few that are using a HRM, it looks like estimates from MFP for a 60 min boxing sparring session (687 cals burned) or a 60 min martial arts workout (763 cals burned) are rather conservative.

  • Hi all, just joined this group to find like-minded people on MFP, and figure this is the place to start. My training is primarily in boxing and kickboxing/Muay Thai. I have done some jiu jitsu in the past, but no more since I like striking too much. I’ve been doing this for about four years. I’ve tried a handful of…

  • Whiskey. It seems to be the one thing that is consistently in my food diary.

  • Hello, Like some others have said, try drinking more water during the day. On days when I drink a gallon I'm not hungry and often find myself eating just to hit my calorie goal rather than because I'm hungry.
