Whoever mentioned about the weight lifting picture being dangerous is spot on, Kessler has no back support on, he isnt even lifting it right because his back is arched backwards, why would you risk a comodity like a world champion fighter like this ?

Hasnt Kessler had back problems in the past ?

The idiot trainers who are allowing him to lift weights with poor technique should be imediatly sacked.

Can anybody who lifts weights or who are body builders here confirm that ?

It looks a really poor setup
Yeah, was me who said it personal trainer (well... training to be one) and Amateur boxer... but you don't need the type of background I have to see that his upper back is way out align with the rest of his body... unless he's lucky he'll end up with a lumbago problem... way to much pressure on the discs of his middle to lower back

Looks like a banana standing up... to be honest I have no idea how that lift is benificial... if his posture is deliberate and not just being missed by lazy trainers then asuming outside of his traps/delts/tris that it has something to do with working his core... shoulder press on a smith ball would be safe and actually work

Looks like a bit of a crappy se up for a world class boxer... a contender... let alone a champ...

Nasty small ring... one horrible looking bag and a weights bench... I know we can't see the whole gym but I can't imagine the rest of it being any less sparse...

It's a credit to Kessler I suppose... obviously a very athletic man and capable boxer... despite how mickey mouse those pictures make his team look.
