Why is Nutrition So Important for Boxing?
Due to boxing being a weight category sport, nutrition plays a massive role in helping an athlete make weight safely and effectively. However, nutrition can play a more important role in boxing than just helping an athlete make weight.
At Boxing Science, we plan our nutrition strategies to help fuel high intensity performance as well as being able to recover from hard training sessions. This can be difficult when athletes train twice a day and regularly in a negative energy balance.
Impaired recovery can lead to decrements in performance as well as an increased risk of injury and illness. The guidelines here will ensure you are fuelled for training without compromising making weight. Like all our approaches to training it’s based on scientific evidence and planned and delivered in a deliberate and systematic manner.
Getting the correct nutrition advice is crucial in a boxers development. Nutrition can help unlock your physical capabilities by optimising your body composition, fuelling your sessions and making weight safely and effectively.
FUEL YOUR PERFORMANCE
The majority of recipe books on the market are geared towards weight loss, with meals being quite generalised with no direction on how to implement them into your training week.
In the Boxing Science Recipe Book, we provide a 7-day guide on what type of meals to have and when. This will help athletes:
- Fuel adequately for hard sessions
- Boost recovery post-training
- Reduce calories for rest days
This makes sure an athlete optimises physical adaptions, reduce risk of illness and continues to lose weight despite reductions in physical activity.

WE SUPPORT YOU 24/7
Nutrition plans need to cater to an athletes needs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Therefore, we have provided recipes to be consumed throughout the day of an athlete.
HEALTHY BREAKFASTS
Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day, as it can help improve performance even when performance is performed in the evening as well as aid recovery from the previous days training. At breakfast we aim for most of our athletes to a combination of high fibre carbohydrates, protein and healthy fats. This will help improve fullness throughout the day when dieting.
In this recipe book we have provided a range of time-efficient Breakfast recipes, or even Breakfasts that you can prepare the night before with a low cost and minimal effort. We understand that many boxers and aspiring boxers may not have a large budget due to the rising costs of living. Thus our recipes are budget friendly as well as tasty.
LIGHT AND EFFECTIVE LUNCH
Lunch is a meal that’s crucial to get right during the day of an athlete, as it’s often ‘sandwiched’ between training sessions (excuse the pun).
This means that it needs to help recovery from the first session and then also fuel for the second session of the day. This means we want plenty of protein to aid muscle recovery, as well as carbohydrates to provide energy and vitamins and minerals to help immunity and reduce muscle soreness. Many athletes don’t plan lunch as they are rushed between training sessions and balancing family work life. These recipes can be made in batch as well as cooked in less than 30 minutes. Making them ideal for people who live busy lives.
PERFORMANCE DINNERS
Dinner is where we can provide the athlete with high nutrient density meals to help recovery from a hard day’s training whilst also fuelling for the next day and helping maintain fullness. Our recipes can be made for all the family making it easy to incorporate into family life.
SNACKS
When we speak to athletes, or even non-athletes about their nutrition, they normally have their 3 main meals nailed but often need more help around their snacking habits.
The lack of strategy and planning around snacks often leaves athletes either under-fuelled affecting their performance, or consuming too many calories that creates more challenges for making weight. Snacks can be useful in increasing protein intake, fuelling for sessions and ensuring micronutrient intake is covered.
In the Boxing Science Recipe Book, we have provided a range of snacks that can be easily prepared and bought even straight off the shelf when in a rush.
This recipe book not only gives you recipes to cook but also educates you on how to structure them to make sure you lose body fat without reducing performance. Finally, we give you a shopping list of foods to store in the house and a kitchen equipment list to help you cook the foods as healthy as possible. This can help ensure you have the correct foods in the house to be cooked in the best way to help dieting.
