    I'm playing. But anyways, I've heard a coach say that the wide lats/ v-haped back doesn't benefit boxers cause it makes it harder to keep the elbows and arms against the body. He said he was not a proponent of doing very wide grip pull-ups for this reason.

    He did his own thing for a few hours post-Steward.

    Under Steward it was the standard routine that Tommy and Andries did:

    6am - beach running
    2pm - 15mins shadow boxing, 15mins bag work, 6-8 4min rounds of sparring with 2-3 diff sparring partners and 30sec rest between rounds, and then calisthenics (skipping, push-ups, pull-ups, sit-ups)

    It was Steward's routine for Tommy and Andries (and I assume Gerald)

    No periodisation? Sounds very vague... Don't buy it. Also four min rounds with 40 seconds rest will likely have a detrimental effect on your boxing

    Tbh i reckon Steward, like alot of the top boxing coaches, is no expert on sport science or conditioning. Fighters are usually better off employing a separate strength and conditioning coach and leaving the boxing sessions to their actual boxing trainers. Roach has this set up in the wild card, now that i think of it.
