Improving the training methods for stance and movement of novice boxers

the article presents an improved method of teaching the movement technique of novice boxers, based on the concept of a “smart square”. The study was conducted with the participation of 32 young athletes aged 12-13 years, divided into control and experimental groups. The experimental group trained using a new technique with an emphasis on the technique of changing the direction of movement, while the control group followed the traditional program. The results of the nine-month experiment showed a statistically significant superiority of the experimental group: 75% of the athletes achieved a “very good result” in the integral indicator of coordination, whereas in the control group only 25% of boxers achieved this level. The developed technique takes into account the asymmetry of the combat stance and ensures effective mastery of maneuvering skills while maintaining an optimal combat position.
