I've got an amature kickboxing fight comming up in a few weeks.
2x2min rnds.
I was thinking on recording my fight prep training for future reference and figured I should post it on here. That way I might be able to get some feed back too.
Please feel free to comment on what you would do differently and why.
Mon:(4 weeks before fight)
Shadow box 3x3min rnds
stretch
Weight training (shoulders and arms)
Tues: (dojo)
warm up/stretch
medicine ball( 3kg) ab/ core routine. 100 reps.
multiple knees on heavy bag. 50 reps x2 sets
Shadow 3x3mins. with 30sec breaks
Punch mitts 3x3mins with 30 sec breaks.
Rest 1 rnd
kick pads 3x3mins with 30 sec breaks. (at the dojo we always use just 30 sec breaks and do either 10 push ups or 10 jack-knives during the break)
Each rnd also starts off or finishes with 10 rep multi kicks for each leg.
rest 1 rnd
technique drills. This usually consists of practising certain defense and counter techs with a partner. A couple of rounds as attacker then as defender. Then 2 rounds of punch defence( parry, block sway bob etc)
Then 2 rnds of kick counters against punching attacks.( push kicks, knees, rnd kicks etc)
rest 1 rnd
Sparring 5x 3min rnds( with everybody )
rest 1 rnd then spar again 3 rnds with just a pro for opponent.
I'm lucky to have some great sparring partners. Lately I've been sparring alot with Aoki san who is the shooto champ and is fighting in the up comming pride Bushido in August. Also Kitazawa san who is a Japanese Muay Thai champ. He really kicks my ......

Sounds intense. You must be eating non-stop.
Gotta ask, if your fight is 2 2-min rounds, why do 3x3's of shadow boxing, kick pads, etc.? Why not stick to 3 x2, 3 x2, etc, keeping to the 2 min as this is the time period you'll be fighting in? |

Good point. Because daidojuku fights are 3 mins we always do 3 min rounds at the dojo.
But when I train at home I chose to do 2 min rounds.
As the fight gets closer I do 2 min rounds of sparring at the dojo too.
There are some things I would do differently if it was just up to me. But
at the dojo I gotta do what sensei says. Hes got a whole lot more experience than me, so I aint gonna argue. _________________ "Today is a good day to die"

I'm eating 4~5 small meals a day.
I've managed to knock 4 kgs off and still feeling strong. I got my 6 pack back, and my stamina is the best its ever been!
Feeling really good about this fight. _________________ "Today is a good day to die"

Your training regimen sounds so intense I wonder if your muscles have enough recovery time to benefit from the weight lifting. The bag and pad work, this close to your match, seem like they should be sufficient. You need more surf time!  |

Yeah I stopped the weights this week, so I could focus more on anaerobic conditioning without overtraining.
Still I was so exausted today that I came home and slept 2hrs after work and didnt make it to the dojo. I'll just do a short bag workout tomorrow and take it real easy on Sunday. _________________ "Today is a good day to die"

I think it sounds like he is working out very intensively. Makes me wonder if the match is 3 minutes and five rounds or even worse. Trust me, some kids could handle that kind of stress. _________________ "Not all the best people can be found in the ring" |
