Your O on Richardson's foam sticks

its a cheap, fun, and good tool

good use of adapting an object

 

No.

 

Foam sticks are fun.

 

it is for speed, and head movement, basicly its for defense.... but has emphises on Speed...

 

im sure he knows what he is doing

 

You can get em for 99 cents at the dollar store. That's a deal if you ask me.

 

Its all about getting you to remember to move your head, problem is, some fighters do it as a token gesture.

I always made a point when I was Boxing, of stepping off the line after throwing, and if I didn't step off the line, I made sure my head was never on the line after throwing.

 

Naz is old school, back in the day it was towels, why not use the foam sticks if you can get a tad bit better results?

Anybody here used the old tire in the gym for footwork and balance?

 

I first noticed the towel thing with Kotelnik, his trainer was doing it during a training session, this was before it became part of Boxing folklore through 24/7.

I have, punching with plastic dumbbells in each hand.

 

whatever works for your fighter I say use it.

 

I thought they said Naz only does that at the end of a camp? Pretty sure.

Kind of like a finish thing, at the end, you "handle" the foam sticks.

 

I'd assume it would be good for sharpening.

 

most overated god trainer there is. it's a ******ed training method
