[SWAGGBOY2209]

I think the whole shawdow boxing thing is to increase your speed so you should be holding weights in your hand while your doing it.do it everyday for 2-3 min hopes this helps

[TheMrplayitsafe]

Expert village would be good if there were all experts like him.

[mudkipzuzu]

shadow kickboxing should exist, im pretty sure muay thai fighters do this as well. why restrict yourself with punches when you can use your fists, elbows, knees, legs and feet? pretty soon all styles will use shadowboxing techniques and it will be called shadow fighting

[mudkipzuzu]

i shadow boxed jet li lol

[dennisrayso]

[markrocketful]

dude wats up with ta sound effects

[SuperMmabjj]

@markrocketful if you know anything about boxing, kick boxing, muay thai, mma u would know what this sound effects are :X its called breathing, you have to exhale with every strike so you dont get out of breath

[1080famous]

@markrocketful its called breathing, fucking retard

[xDxRxDxRxEx]

@markrocketful helps breathing to stop fatigue

[sexystyleish]

i like this guy  well am not gay or someting but i just like him

[MrMarino58]

power comes from core and motion and some of it from legs. but mostly core

[freestylzking]

thanks this works greatly im just getting into boxing and this could help me perfectly

[hitta123]

I always shadow box..its great workout !

[JustPeerfect]

im a boxer my self and i can see taht you not the biggest boxer your self, but.. i can see that you can hit rly hard (: power comes from legs and the motion right?

[DCOME94]

@JustPeerfect every1 here knows ur no boxer just from how u said that comment

[JustPeerfect]

@DCOME94 cuss of my english? im a in swedish diplomboxare, done 2 matches so long. my first match was 24points and my second was 27points

[SuperHelldrifter]

@JustPeerfect u r actually right but the phonies here pay no attention to it. The power comes from the legsmostly and then with the motion. But most of the people don't train there legs or footwork, insead try to make bigger shoulders and arms.

[boga779]

heck i tried to copy him to throw the beautiful punches like but he is pro

[boarding5401]

He sounds like my Chinchilla when it's pissed

[TheNightmareAssasin]

i shadow boxed manny pacquiao once

[kdkei86]

@TheNightmareAssasin me too and he beat the shit out of me

[shenghanyang]

@TheNightmareAssasin and u got knocked out? lol

[TEHWEEZY]

@TheNightmareAssasin how many combinations did he land?

[jairus21skater]

@TheNightmareAssasin and then you woke up....RIGHT??

[MFCirca]

@jairus21skater shadowboxing is when you imagine you're fighting an opponent. He shadowboxed manny pacquiao as in he imagined fighting manny

[JDFightingFilms]

nice work man, check out my vid, im new to youtube

[MrALI37]

tssssst tssssst tsssssst tssssssst

[pimpbranmuffin]

below this= joke

[pimpbranmuffin]

I'm 6"4 and train 5 days a week. Is that good?

[neekface]

@pimpbranmuffin nah you need to be 8 foot and train 10 days a week, sorry bro

[3eethr]

not being a bitch cos this guys has good technique but by the look of his arms alone he needs to work on his conditioning,

[boga779]

wawoo i also want to show off like u just want to prove my friends i am also getting train for boxing they dont believe me :(

[adamfuckinknowsit]

@gerharddj200 dude don't "box" a bully FIGHT him IF you have to AVOID the fight if you can, boxing is good but boxing is the sweet science it's a sport if your bobbin weavin and jabbin he will come straight for you and take you down, boxing is good to work your punches but you need to just straight BRAWL in a streetfight

[3eethr]

@adamfuckinknowsit yeh if ya shit at boxing, come straight at ya step back and wham straight left (im southpaw) or straight right.

[adamfuckinknowsit]

@3eethr then with boxin ya learn to block that i step in head but and rip ya eye out you should be afraid to be dirty ina street fight ;)

[3eethr]

@adamfuckinknowsit If you step in to head butt I step to the side and smash ya in the temple, good footwork and abit of boxing is better than just being a street fighter. Also Im not scared to fight I do it as a sport, being relaxed and confident is way better than your stupid raged angry approach, u can see stuff b4 it comes by body movement if ur concentrating u cant concentrate if ur angry.

[adamfuckinknowsit]

@3eethr EXACTLY people are stupid and if your angry you just thinkin about the big punch that will end it and not thnkin how to get there

[3eethr]

@adamfuckinknowsit Yeh which was wat i was saying while your encouraging running in being a wild unskilled idiot, skill and speed will always overcome twats thinking they can brawl, so basically ur agreeing with me against an argument started by you... ok thn.

[ichigo8153]

What if his mom walked in on him doing this video loool

[slowpokecity]

@RestiveLALO exhaling through the nose. they do it so that when they are punched in the stomach they dont get winded. 

[slowpokecity]

its not entirely that. the main reason boxers breathe out sharply when they punch is so that they dont get winded when they are punched in the stomach.

[tipman444]

@slowpokecity No it because you core tightens and with the correct technique your punch is somewhat more powerful

[gerharddj200]

is it a good way to punch a bully ?

[baderocks2]

@gerharddj200 yeh mate , shadowboxing is a good way to punch a bully , but just make sure you always put your fists back right after every punch , GL fighting him :)

[LiLxGai]

@gerharddj200 just kick him in the nuts and throw a upper cut :)

[mustalig]

@RestiveLALO

they are breathing.

when you punch you must not holding your breath but breathe out.

sorry for my english

[Foovirna]

Yeah, have an advert for McDonald's on a fitness video. Targeted advertising at its best.

[slicktheflash]

[roshwinchester]

[josebrid]

[CucciMan100]

[akarshanmall]

@CucciMan100 Im assuming you did? Did u win or lose?

[CucciMan100]

@CucciMan100 i didnt really last long the teacher broke it up but everyone says i won.

[akarshanmall]

@CucciMan100 Did u get expelled or suspended?

[CucciMan100]

@akarshanmall suspended for 10 days but he got expelled for throwing the first punch

[akarshanmall]

@CucciMan100 Haha, nice, congrats to you :D

[brooksiree]

@CucciMan100 lmao 4 months late

[iFrostiy]

@CucciMan100 how did it go?

[pranith001]

@CucciMan100 if u watchin this before a fight then u shouldnt be fightin lol

[TheRealIpwn]

I have about no muscle and Im trying to learn how to defend myself. So far Im terrible. ugh any tips????

[We2OwnAll]

@TheRealIpwn Go and practice Martial Arts.. I suggest Muay Thai.

[garnett080]

@TheRealIpwn carry a bag of dog crap around with you, if anyone starts trouble smear it on your face. They will run...

[TheRealIpwn]

@garnett080 lol. Im just gonna take MMA

[fufufuaadman]

@garnett080 dumass mma is just a bunch of idoits who have no footwork no accurate punches its basicly big swing miss another big sing miss, kick him down bite is leg. there not real men real men use the fist and have atleat some pride(thats just my opinon thumps up if you agree

[JESUSWARRIOR11]

@fufufuaadman or your a chump that couldnt do mma so your over hear talking mess about it c'mon bro mma is the thing right now put a boxer vs a thai boxer and see who wins ;)

[akarshanmall]

@fufufuaadman And my opinion is that your opinion is completely retarded.

[fufufuaadman]

@akarshanmall and my opino is that your mum is a fucking pedo

jackass

[akarshanmall]

@fufufuaadman Whoa, great joke, you come up with that all by yourself? Please kid, grow the fuck up.

[fufufuaadman]

@akarshanmall think your cool because your throwing around the word kid

well heres something KID go fuck your dad!

[akarshanmall]

@fufufuaadman Yeah, i'll treat you like a kid, because I can tell you're a kid by your unoriginal insults.

[MrDuiman]

@fufufuaadman You are a COMPLETE DUMBASS. Obviously you have never sparred with an mma fighter because if you had you would definitely not be so retarded about what you say about them. I would love to see you fight one of these "idiots with no footwork and no accurate punches", that would change you're opinion pretty quick.

[alexcook53]

@fufufuaadman MMA is closer to what getting in a street fight would be like rather than something like karate which is more about form and precision

[EliCurrent]

I might take classes. I'm 17 but I'm about 5'5 117 lbs. I'm afraid im too small. Any thought? I'm pretty well build looking but kinda weak lol

[prolet82]

@EliCurrent height doesn't matter seriously. And you're not that small to begin with. Just start training and enjoy it.

[GeneralVan]

@EliCurrent nah ur fine, my friend and i train in both boxing and muay thai, and also bjj, and he is 16 and i would say hes like 5'4" and 120 more or less and let me tell you he can kick ass!

[xX6AM6ADO6xX]

@EliCurrent lol im 14 and im nm talller than u im 5'7 and weight 130 - i do boxing and tips for people around our height and weight is to move alot - it doesnt have to be around the boxing ring but in the same small area ur in--- since ur short u have more capacity of durability so if u move allot u could easily take on bigger guys - the reason for moving alot is to not let the opponent ever know were ur gonna hit him from - but build ur cardio (y) it would do great wonders

[DeafMuteZombie]

dfg

[zeronour]

man i gotta say man your pro

[MellowSquash]

is he left handed?

[HevyToy]

Great video but i have a question.

Im 16, almost 17 do you think i have a chance to be a good fighter in my life? im 1.76 and 74 kg.

[SuperBakeDizzle]

@HevyToy weight doesnt matter. the training that you do matters. so start training and youll have a chance just like other fighters.

[MaharlikaAWA]

Is it okay to claim you train in boxing if you dont have a trainer but use youtube videos and practice shadow boxing?

[ESOxiiNsAnE]

my ti kwan dou teacher said making noises helps hit harder...or sumthin like that

[3333perfect3333]

I would rather have floyd mayweather teach me

[T3RryOrw3LL]

@3333perfect3333 You'd rather learn how to not punch I see.

[gwidao123]

@YyJoBb actually it doesnt really matter what the martial art is, being shorter than your oponnent is a grat advage if you know how to use in your advantage.

[mpahars]

This guy forgot to mention you can only shadow box after roughly 7pm, your body will block any direct light creating a shadow so you can shadow box.

Like Ali said, your shadow will drop when you drop.

[gnayiew95]

Ali is great

[jakesdaman12]

THE EARS

[planta46]

THIS GUY IS AMAZING ONE OF MY EXPERT VILLAGE FAVORITES.

[WhiteIceyDevil]

Nice Mohammad Ali picture there + the shadow boxing!

[KootchMr]

tuturu whakamaua kia teina

humie huie

taiki e

[Shotgunsteve2733]

Actually the reason he makes those noises is because it's a breathing technique. It allows you to endure longer. Have you ever tried throwing a hard punch and not breath? It takes a lot out of you. Releasing your breath while punching helps you last longer.

[evrico7]

@Shotgunsteve2733 It also gives you strength. Have you herd of ch'i?

[MiniMaster34ever]

@Shotgunsteve2733 Yeah, I tried throwing a hard punch holding my breath. I felt dizzy after that. The breathing technique is really helpful in keeping your endurance and stamina.

[ironstorm7]

@Shotgunsteve2733 It also helps when taking body punches as possibly a preventative measure to keep wind in ya.

[inari12700]

also if u don't make those noises ure chest gets heavier u actually release pressure when u do that it helps to sweat and to move faster boxing helps with reactions and stamina

[aidanstaff69]

Really good technique from what I can see very nice

[WitnessMELOx15]

@YyJoBb longer reach, harder to get shots to the head, etc.

[Shotgunsteve2733]

as a guy thats done boxing for a while, I can tell this guy has good technique.

[77pal77]

@YyJoBb 5 10

[MarRiiT03]

Thnx

[77pal77]

@YyJoBb look at mike tyson nigga

[bretthicksomega]

meh

[kyoku1982]

In addition to making your stomach harder those little exhales also remind your body to breathe when hitting or getting hit. Many untrained people tend to hold their breath during exchanges.

[espada51]

@theellusionman chuck norris sucks your mommas dick faggot

[Chris2O09]

I like this video and its helped me. Thank you very much and please make more videos!

[dlusiondone]

@expertvillage lovin that form man, very nice.

[jump12man]

It's breathing so u don't tire yourself out u gotta breath with every hit or attack

[SkyrimOwns]

@jump12man

No, it adds a very small amount of power to your strike and it prepares you for a counter to the body.

[on3n1ght3r11]

sorry to be noob but why do all fighters make that weird sound when they train?

[Alill0u]

Just feel sorry for keyboard fighters they train hard ;) they got a harder life than me or you. Nice little demo, first of your right, you made it seem as simple as it really is and you stressed that when it's time to shadow box you got to relax. Laters bruva

[palmfacepwnage]

This guy is good. Great videos!

[titlemaker]

But you should also point out that establishing range with the jab is most important in boxing weather we box shadow box,spar,or fight,once you have established that then the combinations should flow,but it takes alot of practice and a good trainer.Check out Victor Sanchez boxing videos very basic one min long teasers,and stay tuned for the more advanced thank u.

[L2thePz]

this guys a boxer? lol yeah right 

[TheSeanholland]

@L2thePz he will probz still beat u i mean it looks like he knows what hes doing and what hes talking about

[L2thePz]

@TheSeanholland LOL..HAHAHA that was a good one, if you seen me you wouldnt say that.. but yeah you havnt so ill let that one slide. iam 6`4 i train 6 days a week and iam in a diffrent class then him...i left that comment because he doesnt have the build of a boxer, it looks like maybe hes been training for a month or two..

[TheSeanholland]

@L2thePz then u put up a vid and im only 14 and i wana start and turns out im a heavyweight so i would watch ur vids :)

[IrelandKickBoxing]

@L2thePz So you're another one of the 6 foot plus, training all your life keyboard warriors? I see at least one of them on most boxing videos. People bashing the person in the video, saying they are 6 foot plus who train most days. Please show us a video or picture of yourself.

[L2thePz]

@IrelandKickBoxing well not all my life but since i was 17 iam 23 now...and i know boxing in and out, iam not trying to proove anything to you, but if you ask me with manners sure ill send you a pic no problem

[FPSgr8t]

@L2thePz This guy is right... so stfu irelandkickboxing..

[MLKisBLACK]

@L2thePz because hes throwing elbows i'd say hes an mma fighter

[mikejclark]

I can't find a good gym to get started in my area, sucks =/

[8matthewlee8]

and also with what @TheMrintensity it helps because when u have tensed your muscles if someone hits u haqrd between the ribs they cant wind u

[agooddaye2dye]

the noise is just breathing out its more energy efficient aswell as tightening your stomach. Thats what i was taught. CHECK OUT MY SHADOW BOXING VIDEO .

[MISHA1119]

@theellusionman You are not a failure, illusion - I (and surely countless others) thought the same thing, based on the fact that the sound came in flurries with quick punches, leading me to believe they could not be generated by a human being. But after noticing that the significantly hard punches were thrown without the noise, I deduced a human origin based on sudden breath exhalation, (see Mr. Intensity's remarks below) knowing it is deadly to be hit with a body blow while drawing in air.

[randomjoe333333]

something useful on expert village im impressed

[plaechacek]

@theellusionman :D:D good that you admitted that by yourself :D

[raxe30]

You can tell his punches are powerful.

[deenman23]

lol i dont even do hard sports and my muscles are much bigger...

[alan2098]

@deenman23 it's not all about muscles, let alone size of them. in fact having too much mass can slow you down and actually making you worse

[deenman23]

@alan2098 im nto talking abouth proteen made muscles...im talking abouth well made fiber muscles..they can be very slim but VERY well build ...somethign this guy does not have

[Harllequinn]

what a monster, he punches so fast!

[cursedswordsman]

Surely that type of breathing can't be good for your lungs?

[HillsideFights]

@YyJoBb doesnt really matter, cuz you would be fighting people the same weight, so if you were 6ft 180 pounds and your fighting someone 5'8 180 pounds you will have a longer reach, but they will be stronger.

[dodo00o00]

@HillsideFights They will be stronger? Its all down to your stats and style, heights got nothing to do with it.

[HillsideFights]

@dodo00o00 what you scroll through the pages of comments just to troll? you have a nice day mister.

[lollig35]

isn't shadow boxing like thinking like there is an enemy in front of you??? just asking ppl

[wannabethug7]

@lollig35 Yeah pretty much yourself for the most part he just explained it differently, if your form is good and you can always shadow box pretending to be bashing your the prick that ruined your life.

[kcarrera1]

the exhale does alot it can even increase punching speed and he is right a loose stomach with air and exposed is never good

[Meckley23]

You use too much shoulders... Your going to gas out and drop your hands later in the fight.
