• Favorite boxing advice: Be comfortable with the uncomfortable.��

“Boxing in the early stages can be very confusing, frustrating, and difficult...It’s not always about getting to the finish line as fast as you can, but more importantly to build your foundation so you can see the staircase of success that is right in front of you.”

• Favorite way to cross-train: Functional Strength Training

“In my early lifting career, I was so focused on putting up heavy volume in the weight programs that I was constantly overworking my joints, as well as creating a ton of impingements.

“I was never the biggest or strongest on the pitch, but I was constantly working, and practicing to be better than yesterday which helps me constantly inside the ring.”

Anthony also knows how to put on a show, with some acting experience on both the big screen and in the theater. Some of his appearances included hit TV shows such as The Good Wife and Law and Order SVU, as well as performances on the stage including Saturday Night Fever and Legally Blonde.��

“My biggest strength as a coach that I can give to clients, and athletes is the ability to “break down the bare bones”.

My training boils down to connecting to the root inside every single movement.”

After all, Anthony knows that there is more to boxing than just punching. “Boxing is the one sport where EVERY single time I enter a training or sparring session I feel as if I learn more about myself in the ring than I have outside.

Sometimes all it takes is to believe in yourself in life, and I can say for a fact that boxing has the ability to elevate you one punch at a time.”
