WBC TALKS, ROUND 36: Trainers

WBC TALKS began in its 35th edition and this time we had a bumper panel of experts who told us about how to establish a diet regimen.

Panelists:

Jaime Lera

Tintin Rodriguez

Pablo Chacón

Pablo Romero

Edgar Garcia

Food for thought about the change in routines which has led us to look for new forms of training, by adapting day to day.

Pablo Romero, said the most important thing is to have order and routine in our day to maintain discipline, order and regularity.

They agreed that you should not only work on the physical but also the psychological part, because everyone, regardless of whether they are athletes or not, must focus our emotions in a forthright positive way.

Touching the point of food Jaime Lera and Edgar García, emphasized that you must take great care to minimize the intake of carbohydrates since, obviously the caloric expenditure is appreciably lower.

At this point we must be very strict and look for a diet that nourishes us and gives us the necessary energy, without leading us to weight gain. Fruits, vegetables, meat, chicken, fish and seeds avoiding carbohydrates as much as possible, such as rice, bread and pasta.

Educating our mind is also an important exercise, because sometimes the torpor of inactivity linked to confinement, can generate a lot of stress and anxiety, which can trigger us to overeat including junk” food. So gluttony avoidance.

Pablo Romero, specified that all coaches have the OBLIGATION to know, to study and have domain on the topics that are around any boxer, such as food, hydration, physical work, mental health, as all this brings an integral benefit to the boxer.

Pablo Chacón, as well as Tintin, insisted on the issue that today more than ever it is necessary to focus correctly on the boxer, even if it is at a distance, because from this quarantine two classes of athletes will emerge, those who allowed themselves to be physically and mentally defeated and those who they managed to adapt to this new prevailing condition.
