Her thoughts were that the type of training routine which would be appropriate for shot-putters (who need rapid, maximum bursts of energy for a very short term) would be totally wrong for a boxer (who needs sustained energy under continual stress over a period of rounds). And while shot-putters can carry weight as fat stores, that wouldn't work well for boxers. I agree with Mrs D (always best to do that) and think that reviewing whatever AJ does for fitness and conditioning would be the best routine to copy (posted that routine a few months ago if you want to see it).(05-31-2017, 06:02 PM)markk Wrote:As a side note we are fitness/power and strength testing on Saturday and if anyone wants to come down let me know.

Its hard with the poly boys as they gain weight so quick, diet will be key followed with an extreme work ethic. i look forward to seeing where Fa can go when you take him out of his comfort zone.
No prob guys. I believe in him big time. I have been very busy over last 3 months and I over see his training but I didn't last 3 months so I take allot of the Responsibility. Essentially I work in with Tom Walsh , Jacko gill and val Adams trainer but as junior wanted to spend more time at home to look after his son we missed a bit of over sight . IMO he over trained and did 3 sessions a day. Also having a bit of stress produces cortisole which is essentially the opposite of testosterone . This hormone essentially stores food to fat and make your body use minimum energy and puts all the energy you need to recover on your body as fat for later . Just my theory as juniors eating and habits are pretty solid., the disappointing thing is he ate well and trained too hard but we over cooked it .
don't get me wrong we don't train like a shot putter. we box 5-6 days a week, weights and cardio 2, conditioning and rotation power 3 times. sunday off. Dr Angus ross is the world leader in eccentric training and rotatational force production. the conditioning and rotational power training is very similar to AJ. in fact its more advanced. we just over did it. he has a world class guy just doesn't mean we get it right the whole time and mised some details.
