Can someone please tell me why Bradley is lifting weights?

:lol1: yeah curling would probably be one of the least beneficial use of your time as a boxer in a weight room. Squats, various plyometrics, power clean, various presses etc. Compound movements that requires explosive power.

clean and presses, snatches, squats and deadlifts are all beneficial.. those are Olympic lifts that are explosive.. hes not bodybuilding.. just end the thread..

Why would sprinters lift weights if it made them slower? I think this is one of those myths circulating. As long as you're not overly built weights can really help with developing speed and power. He just looks slow.His technique and his timing have to be on point.He looks sloppy and slow but then agian that 24-7 said the fight is more then 2 months away so my conclusion is he was out of shape and heavy on the first ep.

Weight training can be exceptionally beneficial. Just depends on what muscle groups, what movements and how much weight. Im completely against curling for boxing, but squats are excellent imo.
