Aprašymas

The mental challenges of amateur boxing, the fears and anxieties evoked, are similar to what we all face in life. How amateur boxers are taught to face these mental challenges has been honed over the thousands of years that boxing has been a sport. In Amateur Boxing: Mental Stress & Strength, a writer who is both a practicing psychiatrist and an experienced amateur boxer, examines how boxers meet these mental challenges. Drawing on the latest neuroscience and armed with firsthand experience, Dr. Lavid shares how amateur boxers transform this mental stress to strength.

Dr. Lavid introduces amateur boxing to the lay reader and explains the medical safeguards and risks. In clear language, he provides the neuroscientific basis for the mental stress of the upcoming bout and the bout itself. Using this scientific understanding, he details how boxers utilize the negativity of these emotions to develop positive physical and mental strength. Amateur Boxing: Mental Stress & Strength concludes how this strength is used outside the ring, which is the real value of amateur boxing.
