On Sunday 6th March we delivered the first Boxing Science Education Workshop in Liverpool.

A group made up of boxers, coaches and personal trainers took part in the Foundation workshop, consisting of theoretical and practical workshops on movement, strength and fitness training for boxing.

A fantastic day with a great group, asking questions and eager to learn. We took them through the foundations that need to be set when  introducing a boxer to sport science practices
