training while losing bodyfat

[Allilang]

Ya, their just normal sparring sessions against different clubs.

No, this is an actual tournament. Every 3 months there is a Saturday and Sunday of constant reffed fights with some televised fights on Sunday. Its not just going to another gym and having sparring sessions with their guys.

So then it's not a sparring session as your suggesting,
Is it a marked fight?? In other words do you have to produce your book and will it go towards your record.
If not,then it's not a tournament.!
If it's a fight,but not marked, that's an exhibition!

If it's 2 rounds, that's not a fight nor tournament,that is a light sparring session

My hunch is that you're not losing as much weight as you could be because of the sugars in that Banana Shake.
If it's an organic banana shake it has a lot of natural sugars, and if it's not organic it probably has a lot of sugar added into it.

Now I'm no expert but purely based on my experience dieting, losing weight and not having much energy go hand in hand. The body burns sugar before fat, so if you're keeping your energy levels up with sugar then you won't be burning as much fat as you could be. Of course the downside to completely cutting out carbs and sugar means that eventually after a few days you will start to feel tired and dizzy, in which case you get a boost from a day of eating a proper meal with enough carbs, then go back to the strict diet.
I've heard that if you fight through the fatigue your body will enter ketosis where it's running on fat and you're supposed to feel very energetic, but I don't think I've got that far yet.

As for food or a snack to eat, can you get strips of dried squid in Korea? It's full of protein and as far as I know, has little or no carbs. It's also quite filling. Again I don't recommend eating nothing but dried squid for two weeks, but breaking it up with days where you eat a proper meal.

Things are different in Korea. I'm not sure exactly how they classify it.

The banana shake is homemade using Ice, 200ml of skim milk and one small banana. oh, and a little artificial sweetener. So it has about 200 calories at most.

Yes, they have dried squid, but I am allergic to seafood. I was thinking of getting a kimbab in the morning and eating a slice every hour through the day. a kimbab is like a California roll. Rice, ham, radish, carrot, egg, and a few other things rolled up in dried seaweed then sliced.

I never saw good results from low carb diets. 100% of the people put on all the weight plus change within weeks of stopping their diet. Low calorie diets are the only ones that I have seen that had any lasting effect.

how tall are you?

YES! Carb the **** up. Complex Carbohydrates are your best friend while training. Skip dairy products, it will make a difference in weight loss. Have you tried Almond or coconut milk? It's really good for you instead of skim milk. Drink plenty of water too and use a sweat suit while training and the weight will go down fast.

1- the hell do you mean Korean girls are so tiny and 65 kg. Ima man 67 kg. 65 isn't tiny esp for a girl.
2- If you can't train everyday then don't. Why you would need to train everyday.
3- Isn't it a rule there has to be 24-36 hours btw scale and fight even in amateurs?

I thought the same, im 72KG (Middle weight) but their are loads of guys in my gym at 65-67KG and they are like 5' 7"

65Kg is only a welterweight (less than top welterweight limit)
