Seriously, he has the simplest, most straightforward, most effective explanation I am aware of. The exercises are pretty damn dull, but give it 10 minutes a night for a week or so and you'll notice the difference.
Also, consider the important role that punching technique plays in your footwork. Your balance is so, so important.

Haislett came before Ed Parker and Bruce Lee's re-working of boxing footwork
More has come since then,better balance for starters,they both figured out the same thing,traditional martial arts was too wide,Haislett was too tight,they found a middle ground that actually worked.
