SKIPPING
Skipping is an Important activity that can be used in a variety of ways.
An important issue is it should be done with variety for several 3-minute round.
A good idea in the last 30 or 10 seconds is to pick-up the speed.
One can skip in one spot or skip moving forward and for the those that want to be challenged they can try skipping while moving backwards.

TEAMWORK IN TRAINING
It is always important for trainees to team-up with another to try basic moves.

Cliff McNabb and Nanaimo boxing

CLIFF MCNABB - A NANAIMO ICON -  By Brian Zelley

As we look through the sports history of Nanaimo, BC, Canada,
one name that is recognized is CLIFF MCNABB.  I remember him for his
involvement in amateur boxing since the Sixties.

Cliff is unlikely to be selected for any inductee slot in the BC Amateur Boxing Hall of Fame,
but in Nanaimo his name will be remembered and reported on for
many decades as there is now a "CLIFF MCNABB ARENA" at the old Beban Park location in North Nanaimo.
