Scientific approach to making weight
Posted: 13 Jan 2014, 07:25
Thought some of you may be interested in the following case report, published in the International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism,
http://journals.humankinetics.com/AcuCu ... /17827.pdf
"The intervention demonstrates that a more gradual approach to making weight in professional boxing can be successfully achieved via a combination of restricted energy intake and increased energy expenditure, providing there is willingness on the part of the athlete and coaches involved to adopt novel practices"
Cheers
