Don't think you will get much of that during selection training apart from weekends will you? The biggest problem I'm finding is the pain when you kick wrong or from punching the bags. Cardio wise there's been a massive difference in just 3 weeks. You sweat so much over here though it's difficult not to lose weight as long as you eat sensibly although it's inevitable that I'll plateau at some stage. They train here 6 days a week which is really tough going. The fighters have to run twice a day as well. Keep up the training. The fitter you are when you turn up then easier it will be for you (pack in the fags too!). Yeah, you always need to take days to recover.

I've heard from a personal trainer that it is bad to train everyday, well not bad but it slows down the gaining muscle/losing weight process. What I'm doing is setting myself a weekly schedule which is gym monday, wednesday and friday, and on tuesday thursdays and some sundays i do a 3 mile run. But good luck and keep it up.

They do have weights and other exercise equipment but there's not a lot you can do apart from rest and recover if you're in pain. Maybe I'm just being a pansy. I've had trouble sleeping as well because my mind has been elsewhere. Hopefully next week will be better :-) </p> It's a Kick Boxing gym so it's not like that.

You would think that they would have alternative training sessions in the gym to help those going through this phase if it happens all the time.
