will boxing 3/hr per week interfere with gains?
I work out 4x per week, and want to box on the off days.
Because I like the feeling, and it's a good workout.

Do you enjoy doing it? Then do it, if you want to just focus on getting "bigger," then don't do it. It's as simple as that, why do you need to make a thread about this? I'd rather partake in an activity I enjoy than obsess about a couple of pounds, lighten up brah

Boxing is cardio, so yes, you will be visited by the gains goblin.

>3/hr per week
nah son, thats not a lot of cardio
i did 5/hr per week and still got some gains
it depends how seriously you take it. if you do it for just cardio, you should be fine. but if you want to make fighting weight for a given height, it will interfere.

Gonna snap your hands up with those shitty gloves, hope you're at least wrapping. You're also doing HIIT, because I can guarantee you aren't doing 1hr straight sessions on bags.
Depends what your definition of boxing is. Hitting the bag on your own doesn't count as boxing.
To get better at boxing trainers usually prohibit lifting because it makes your punches slower.

this is probably one of the stupidest things i've ever read in my entire life, and i've read some dumb shit

One would usually interfere with the other for me, I ended up prioritizing boxing

That's because boxing is still infested with coachlore and training methodology hasn't really adapted too much due to the sport falling to the background.
>don't fuck yer bitch before a fight
Olympic weightlifting is used to train speed and power in numerous sports.
