[@SD-ym1rt]

We got taught in school that a warm shower was essential for recovery after training. It's amazing how the stretches I got taught and loads of other things we took as the gold standard has been shown to be completely wrong and sometimes detrimental over the years.

[@ADU17]

@@SD-ym1rt yh we don’t even get taught to stretch at school lol, also if you have a shower, cold showers are a lot better than warm showers especially for recovery, not sure if you already knew or not but thought it was worth mentioning

[@moz5831]

Can you discuss boxing knee injuries at some point and also how to prevent them?

[@SD-ym1rt]

@@ADU17 much appreciated! I remember our neck warm ups turning out to be particularly bad for your spine ha ha it was like do full neck rotations to warm up. We would all stand spinning our heads round in circles

[@dantedlane2]

How do you feel after stem cells

[@wildernesstraining1957]

@@dantedlane2 When I first come out of hospital, I was weaker than I ever thought possible. I’d walk a little, then a bit further, then weeks later, steady bicycle rides. Gradually increased my exercise regime with walking, cycling, press ups etc. often viral complaints held me back. Now 22 months post transplant, reasonably fit for my age.

Thank you for giving us this content for free, you tru;y are the people's coach and we appreciate it!

Hi Tony, your videos have helped me a lot as a novice in boxing! One thing I struggle with is sleeping after sparring at night. I usually find myself just thinking about the spar and training and not able to fall asleep. Is this common and do you have any tips for this

[@ragnarbluechip8795]

Spot on about the sleep aspect. Problem is, after a vicious training session I sleep fairly poorly

[@Rellz_yt]

Same here. Recently got into boxing and I've been experiencing this, so what I do is train a bit early in the evening so it doesn't override my sleep

Hi mate I’m from Teesside down road from your land, love your vids, is an ice bath more beneficial than a hot bath? I would imagine they have separate benefits but just wondered is one better than the other. If I had a sauna I’d go in their followed by an ice bath. Not the case haha
