One of the Oldest Myths in Boxing Training

Lifting heavy weights will make you slow, is a myth that has been around for many years. It doesn't sound like it's going to be dying any time soon either. This myth comes from coaches who know nothing about exercise physiology, and strength/conditioning. Ask any coach, what is there main goal in training a fighter? Their answer usually is, to make their fighter faster, and more powerful. The fact of the matter is, that most fighters are bloody weak! These coaches don't understand, that to get fast, you first have to be strong. To be strong, you have to lift heavy weights. They also fail to understand, that strength and speed, are prerequisites of power. So to be powerful, you have to be strong and fast.
