@sigh999999 the hook comes from ur feet first, then your hip, waist and then you roll your shoulder and boom.. knock out left hook! all in one motion baby!!
this is interesting, i study chinese kungfu or "chinese boxing" (although i am american) and my grandfather was a western style boxer in the navy. it is neat to compare and contrast.... the chinese kung-fu is so rich in techniques/ technacalities, etc., and is big on training forms, aka "shadow-boxing". i also like your other video when you talk about a "relaxed natural stance shoulder width" it reminded me of tai chi stance.
You can tell by the way he moves, he has some experience in boxing. He has good movement and knows some fundamentals.
This said, he doesn't turn his hands over in a drill like motion for power when he punches, his hands are often too low, he doesn't snap his hands back (relaxed or not that is wrong), and when he shows his footwork, his feet come too close together. That's what people mean when they criticize his form.
i know he's probably using it as a figure of speech but you should never ever be on your toes, be on the ball of your back or front foot (when moving pivoting or twisting).
wtf this guy is doing in the woods making a youTube video I dont know!!!??!?!!!!!.... his wife has obviously left him ... and well now he's gone f**king insane. I hope he recovers soon.
hey man i just wana say, i feel like you get a lot of shit, and thats a big old load of horse shit, i love the vids keep em coming bud, theyve personally helped me alot, just ignore the keyboard warriors and keep reaching out to the real fighters
Thanks for the comment about the elbows. I always seem to overextend (and thereby injure) my left elbow when I'm shadow boxing, and now I realize that it's probably because I'm putting too much power there without something to hit.
when u bob and weave are u still on ur toes? i know when i try to do this i kinda loose balance and my foot placement. im use to doin squats and staying on my heals when i get low in that position. any advice denny my man?
@ciogon hey you...ass hole! If you have got nothing constructive to say, don't say it. Have a look at the odds in the likes and dislikes. 608 people have taken the time to give it the thumbs up. That means they learned something...maybe just an idea or a relative thing to their own training. Then look at the dislikes. Those people live their life complaining and whinging that they know better. You are one of them...not a good place to be if you plan to be something in life.
@Dennythetrainer hey danny how are ya, i just want to know if u can do boxing or shadowboxing every day without nessary rest, if you have time plz pst me ty.
@Dennythetrainer Are your two books still available? I've looked everywhere and your website doesnt have any direct links to buy the books? neither does this youtube.. I really want them, help?! :(
@Dennythetrainer how come you dont twist your rear foot sometimes when you shadowbox? i just took boxing for 1 month so im not criticizing you or anything
@Dennythetrainer ciogon is right, in addition to turning your fists to hit, you should forward the shoulders because your direct hit are short and easy to reach you in the jaw. Maybe you're good in combat but will not be by a purified technique, so if you can not stand a constructive criticism to yourself you shouldn't upload videos. Sorry for my english but I am spanish and I used a translator.
@Dennythetrainer This video answered a great handful of questions and problems I've been having with my shadow boxing. I'm trying to learn Wing Chun and Jeet Kun Do and I think it was Bruce Lee who said that shadow boxing is one of the best practices you can do. Thank you so much. God bless you!
@ciogon Let me guess you've never set foot in a gym in your life, you've watched a few Hatton or Haye fights in the past couple of years, and you've picked up a few techniques watching tutorials from Expert Village? Either that or you meant the hooks holding up the heavy bag are awful, because as far as I can see he's teaching perfectly. Shadow-boxing isn't meant to be full-power, pinpoint accurate technique, but rather to limber up, get in the zone and reiterate some of that muscle-memory. Cock
@ciogon twisting the fist is actually bad, you look power like that. Well, i'm just talking in a bare knuckle perspective. You would want the main impact to be on the 2 knuckles
@ciogon You have to consider the fact that he sounds like he's been out there for a while. He's probably been working that bag and shadowboxing for a good while, just look at the other vids of him. When stamina drains, technique deteriorates, keep that in mind before you criticize someone.
@ciogon What are you talking about with bad habits? He is showing people what shadow boxing is not how to throw the perfect jab. Im sure he is well versed in twisting the fist for snap jabs its just not the focus of this video. Shut up, watch and learn.
@ciogon I think its pretty constructive considering ciogon is right. But I guess its a fitness video not the actual boxing technique video, might be wrong though.
Hardcore shit-this dude is out in the outback hanging a bag from a tree-training his ass off! Wow, kind of reminds me of my backyard as a kid! HAHAHHA love it!
i want boxing workouts to be my exercise program in order to be fit and also to maintain and improve my cardio..i don't want to be a boxer but maybe i could use it for self defense
@TwoSidedDream All the techniques on this channel are okay for women. I coach women and there is no change in how they train compared to the men. Boxing is an art of repetition.
