Keto is unachievable.... nearly?

14 years ago I competed in amateur Thai boxing, but I don't remember getting hurt as much as I am getting hurt now in boxing. I only started last week but I've a slight strain/sprain in my wrist, ankle and a swollen nose. When I sleep at night I can't breathe through my nose so I breathe through my mouth, which makes me wake up with 7-hour dry mouth. I'm getting beat around in sparring too, I took a bodyshot two days ago and dropped to the ground. Can't remember getting beat this bad in Thai boxing.

14 years is a long time FK. How can you spar with zero carbs? Seems like you’re rushing into the weight loss and then a first fight in 14 years at the same time. Good luck with your goals however.

I have porridge before exercise (only on the days I exercise). On days I don't exercise, it's only meat and protein shakes all day. Literally just now I was about to go do shoulders, arms and legs in the gym but I realised I hadn't had carbs all day. Not enough time to eat and absorb right now so I'm just going to go to the steam room instead. I'll work out this evening or tomorrow.

I recomend training the wrists so they become stronger...

I always had to be sure to wrap my hands back when I did Thai boxing. If I go all out on a punch bag without wraps, I'll tweak my hand/wrist within about 50 punches. Wrists in particular tweak easy.

Also in Thai boxing I never really bothered punching bags, I only ever punched pads held by a padman, so there was much less shock absorption for my hands/wrists.

I might see about bulking my hands/wrists a bit.
