it is obviously a given that you are gonna work on a caloric (slight)deficit.

There are 4 main supplements one should take;
L-glutamine
Creatine
Whey protein
...and one else, which I forgot right now.
Also, one should take powdered creatine because that's the form which has proven to be most effective. But it's important to use the right amount of it, and not any longer than 4-5 weeks at most. Too much creatine in your body will make you perform less than optimal, due to forgotten reasons right now.
I have one of Mackie Shilstone's books, in which he explains all of these things in detail, but I don't know where it's at as of now. Which is why there are forgotten reasons
Mackie is considered the best in his area, but for proof, watch Roy Jones' heavyweight body and Bernard Hopkins' jump from middle to light-heavy.
One could also take a look at the actors in "300".
Mackie believes in high-intensity work-outs with interval cardio and heavy weights.

I tried glutamine......honestly I dont know much good it did.
I got a 1kg worth, so it lasted me for some time. Used to mix it with my protein shake all the time.
I know its not supposed to add any mass or anything, its more of a recovery supplement supposedly, but I didnt feel a difference, felt the same way after work outs and day after as before...
But its true, the key supplements are creatine and protein powders.
And I guess a good multivitamin......but multivitamins make me break out like Im on test. .
I get acne any time I take vitamin A.......need to find a multivitamin that doest have A in it.

I never personally enjoyed any benefits from glutamine. Unlike fish oil. Fish oil is amazing, not just for fat loss, but for skin quality.

Also, something that is actually important for contact sport athletes. Creatine has a neuro protective qualities that prevent brain damage from concussions and overheating(big problem for boxers who have to cut a lot of weight) when it is taken over a period of time.

I've never bothered with Glutamine, I use a little Whey here and there, but I live on Creatine!
I never used Creatine when I was boxing, only started using it when I started Powerlifting.
