Right now I'm in my off season.

I run 3x a week (instead of 5-6).
I cover about 2-3 miles, doing 3 minute intervals at 60-70% of my max speed and 1 minute of coasting. Before I run I stretch and skip rope for 10 min straight at a light, quick pace. I would like to increase my distance to 4-5 miles by August 4x per week and then get back to 2-3 miles at 70-80% max, increase the distance until September up to 85% 5x per week and then October switch over to Sprint intervals.

I shadow box on the off days. I have a similar plan for hitting the pads, bags and sparring.
