Three habits you need to develop for amateur-Olympic boxing- Olympic boxing to become like Vasyl Lomachenko

Learn from the London Olympian Vasyl Lomachenko, the main habits that every amateur boxer must develop and is vital to winning an amateur fight.

• The most important thing is to keep moving throughout the race. It can be feet or body, it's up to you. This creates the conditions necessary for you to throw faster punches and be ready to step outside. In the video you will see that Lomachenko does it all the time. However, this requires very good endurance that will be developed through many sparring rounds, high-intensity bag training and interval running training.
• The second important element is to develop the habit of hitting on combinations. The more hits you throw the more chances you have to score clear points. You must also remember to strike after the opponent's attacks. This shows the judges that you have not been beaten.
• Finally you have to remember that your first defense should be foot movement. In amateur boxing, it is better not to be hit at all than to block the opponent boxer's blows, something that can confuse a judge as to whether you received the blow or not.
