Today I'm joined by Adam Haniver, a boxing coach out of the UK and one of the founding members of The Box Gathering, which is a community of practice for boxing coaches.
In this episode, Adam talks to us about how he has moved his boxing program away from the traditional approach to a constraints-led approach. Of particular interest, we discuss why padwork is not very good training (because it pairs the wrong affordances with certain movements), and then we discuss what you can do instead of focus mitts to make training more effective.
If you're excited to jump in, hit the subscribe button on your podcatcher and enjoy the show.
