WATCH: Boxing Science 2016 – Day 1
The Boxing Science program is up and running for the new year, with the boxers being introduced to their new programs and reunited with ‘the curve’.
Our ‘fly on the wall’ style video of Boxing Science 2016 – Day 1 gives you a fantastic insight to how our programs run.
In the video, we see 10 boxers of various ages and abilities challenge themselves with new strength and movement exercises before their high intensity interval training drill on the treadmills and curve in the labs at Sheffield Hallam University.
Following the large group, featherweight prospect Jordan Gill completed his first 1:1 consultancy session of the year, being introduced to Olympic lifting and hitting a personal best on the back squat.
‘The Thrill’ then moved on to his conditioning, beginning an anaerobic training phase consisting of 2 minute flat out sprints. This required monitoring his blood lactate, so Alan Ruddock and Ashley Downing assisted in data collection.
Picture yourself in one of our sessions? There are many ways you can get involved!
