    Best practice is to use add_meta_boxes_{post-type} to create less unnecessary hooks for other post types.

    function adding_custom_meta_boxes( $post_type, $post ) {
        add_meta_box( 
            'my-meta-box',
            __( 'My Meta Box' ),
            'render_my_meta_box',
            'post',
            'normal',
            'default'
        );
    }
    add_action( 'add_meta_boxes', 'adding_custom_meta_boxes', 10, 2 );
