Speed Ladder, Do you use it? Do you rate it?

[salem-no1]

All styles of boxers can benefit from better footwork. The agility ladder generally benefits the following skills when practiced consistently:

Overall coordination
Balance
Foot quickness/precision
Body control

As you continue to work with the ladder, your reaction time and ability to change directions quickly will greatly improve. As a result, you will be able to bounce around the ring with more fluidity.

Agree with u

I used to use it quite alot, bellow is a video i done of me using it the other day, hadnt used it in a while, used to be a bit faster, but still pretty fast. I seen Alex Ariza using it with Manny and Amir, also seen Donaire using it. I think its good for improving cordination, especially with younger athletes, and also can help with foot speed and transfering your weight.

Do you rate it as an exercise?

Do you use it in your training?

I get shin splints but i want to start using a speed ladder in my training. What would be anyone on this forum adivice for that?

Shall i go ahead and use the speed ladder or is it a risk not worth taking in case it brings the shin splints back?

How much of a affect does it have on your shins?
