Leanne Prichard is a qualified S & C coach working with amateur boxers all the way over in New Zealand. Leanne helps get her fighters as fit, strong, mobile & conditioned as possible before they step into the ring. I connected with Leanne on social media & started working with some of her fighters with their nutrition. I wanted to get her on the show to chat all about amateur boxing!

In the episode we chatted about the key differences between professional & amateur boxing, why amateurs need to adopt a 52 week approach to their training & nutrition, the dangers of poor weight cutting practices on health & performance, the importance of periodising training sessions across the week as well as the negative impacts consuming a low carbohydrate diet has on performance in the ring.

This is great episode for any amateur boxers out there to tune into & learn from, Leanne is a super passionate coach & it really comes across in this chat!
