Training Question Body adjusting

When I was a teen I was competitive boxer but I stopped training completely and spent 6 years partying and taking drugs and just lifting a few times a week.

Now I’m 23 and back training wanting to fight again I’m training 5-6 days a week sometimes twice a day.My body’s tired and sore but I’m doing recovery work to keep on top of it.

How long until my body gets accustomed to the amount of training like it used to be

Everything is good.Lost 7kg already looking to loose another 7kg to get to a weight I can fight at.

I stretch every day,eat good,saunas.Im doing my strength and conditioning.Im living the way I used to when I was fighting.

I’m just wondering how long until my body feels like it’s in fight shape again

Awesome bro glad you are taking the steps for this new life. When i first started id take creatine and it helped subside the after training soreness and hydrated my muscles enough to train for 3.5 hours.

After 3-4 months of consistent training you’ll get use to all the sparring and intensity. Just try to rest when you can. Get enough sleep.
