on the jab, you will run into problems with a guy who has quicker hands especially if he feints you. Another tip is, don't square up. Use angles. I stop the job with my right hand hugged against my left shoulder. If you don't use angles, it's like trying to fight about 8 guys in there.
@mehoafzal you want to keep your body centred and take small steps. Big steps result in getting off balance. Head over to my page, there's a video under the boxing playlist where I go over movement.
i've learned more from your videos and practicing what i see than i have at the lame ass boxing gym i use to go to. thanks chad, and keep up the good work
@mrostos May I suggest that you not only learn to defend against a southpaw, but also how to attack one relentlessly. Hint: his liver (largest internal organ of the human body) is closer to you than yours is to him, If you hit his liver right, it will most likely end the fight, unless he's Superman or on crack. Have your coach/trainer show you how to set up the liver punch on a southpaw with combinations and feints, etc.
I have large everlast gloves, but they are the gloves that the fingers come out, like MMA. are those good for practicing boxing alone as a begginer, or do i need big boxing gloves?
@bagutierrez95 depending on what you want to do. If you're going to spar with boxing, then get some boxing gloves, but those - or some bag gloves - should be good if you're primarily doing bag work.
@Frozenpot420 don't be worried. You should be attacking the punches when you slip. Notice how I'm slipping forward, towards the punches a lot of the time, this way you're putting yourself in better position to counter. Slipping is all about getting your opponent off balance and countering.
@ChadHowseFitness is it helpful to move your head after you throw a combination at your opponent at all times? because you're not giving your opponent a target to hit really... or should you vary it a little and not always move your head after you throw a combination?
@818Harumi you can do the same thing on either, what you have to watch out for is slipping into his power hand. So with an orthodox fighter that would mean slipping to your left (into his right hand).
hey chad i dong get it , in the stance + footwork video you said your right hand should be protecting your chin but now in this video you put your right hand in your forehead to protect your face from a jab ... so where does the right hand really protects?
its not like 65628 people didn't took a punch since u made this video becouse u need a lot of practice with your coach and a youtube video can only make u say "OK...i know what should i do tomorrow"...that's my opinion
do you have any suggestions for someone with a disability involving the legs?... someone who is slow moving/labored in the legs and hips? ... im handicapped but i think i can box if i work at it...
As a total beginner, I can tell you this video is perfect. This and your other beginner videos are exactly what i was looking for. Please keep up the good work and your great spirit.
As a total beginner, I'll tell you this video is perfect. This as well as your other beginner videos are exactly what I was looking for. Thank you, please keep up the good work and your great spirit.
What I like about you Chad is you seem like a good guy who's just into fitness and boxing...not a hard guy who likes to fight and is miserable. Thank God that he allows you to engage in fighting and strength skills and still have your morals and character. Not so lucky for me.
always step/turn/slip so u are OUT of the opponents guard...never slip inside unless u have like 20 years of experience or the reflexes of roy jones...
Dead wrong and terrible right hand defense. you are blinding yourself with that cover and roll....just roll the shoulder like james toney. also you CAN slip to your right to get under the right hand. Its way safer than slipping to the outside like you showed. 3rd and most effective is to smoother the right with your lead while hiding your chin behind your shoulder much like moseley and hoya do. You have no sparring up and I know why. you dont fight or spar and it shows. your jab perry was ok.
@jasperzoe RH defence: yes, overselling completely for the purposes of explaining. Rolling the shoulder is great for advanced fighters, but not for beginners. Look at Toney, Mayweather, all the guys who drop their lead hand had to first learn how to fight w their hands up. Again, for beginners my friend. No sparring because what can people learn from it? Not here to show off my skills but to give helpful tips to people who want to box. I appreciate the comment tho bud.
@ChadHowseFitness you could show beginners how to spar....in which they should only be able to defend and use a jab with their footwork. once they have a concept down of range and fighters measure they can add the rear hand and combos....etc. How many times you seen a tough man where guys just go bazerk...LOL so easy just to take your time and pick them off with a simple jab.
@jasperzoe haha ya I could do that for sure. We've had a few of those guys come in our gym before. They're pretty damn cocky, but by the end of their first sparring session they're usually brought back down to earth. I'll see what I can do with the sparring. Maybe do a voice over and some editing to accompany the sparring to make it more educational for people.
@ChadHowseFitness do it bro....people dont realize that everything works off the jab offensively and defensively everything starts with taking away the other guys jab or whatever strengths. another more advanced video you could do. figure out what his strength is right away and take it away from him. where do you live?
U ppl r dumb! This is not a foot work video! Its a video for ppl who don't know how to slip a punch or block! But good stuff guys, especially for ppl who don't know any defense! Awesome vid!
its called a perry. I would even use catching over blocking if you want to dumb it down. In addition you can smoother the right hand much like you smoother a southpaw jab by extending and catching it or perrying it down. Range and footwork is the safest D against all of these punches thought really. You got fight or sparring vids? your vid is good for beginners but your are noobish in movement.
@fromstart2finish They are weak when it comes to punches but deadly when its elbows, knees and kicks. They dont really focus much on blocking punches or throwing a lot of punches as it wont earn them a lot of points in matches
yea, thats natural for boxers but muay thai i guess they get used to getting smashed in the face which is probably why i hardly ever see them blocking.
@fromstart2finish True its pretty much why they teach you to stand in your grounds and just take hit and hit back. Plus in muay thai matches everyone is injured somehow and some are bleeding
Great video i find the striking part much easier but i always forget to defend myself good good basic slipping and blocking techniques in this vid that i have to improve
@K1BIGGESTFAN One thing to remember about blocking slipping - that I need to do a video on - is to not get out of position. You want little movements, not huge blocks or slips because the whole point is to counter. It takes time but you'll get there for sure. Glad you like the video!
oh and i dont think you should roll becuase you could get hit in the back of the head and get seriously injured and i preffere never to take your eyes of your apponent
@nukebombsflyin I see what you're saying. I over-sold the blocking in the video for demonstration purposes, but when in a fight the movements will be much more subtle. Rolling for block is a great way to counter a punch. But I do prefer to slip more often than not. Glad you like the shirt! Maybe my favorite!
very good video im gone to study this till i got it inch perfect iv nether boxed before i just train on the bag in the garden im gone to put it into practice an make a vid an il tel you when its on an you can tel me where my flaunts lie an where im going wrong if ya dont mind
@ChadHowseFitness really awesome video dude! Really apreciated, i think alot of people would love some videos on basic punches explained abit diffrently, fx the videos ive watched i would never have understood what a Simple Jab is, people don't seem to explain it proberly, like a jab is more you pulling your hand back than forcing it out, teaching them how to not tense up so it doesnt get into a half arsed cross, but into a jab, i would personally love some longer all around videos ;) <3
@DeathrowRecords1995 yes, you can still parry punches in a street fight, slipping will be more effective though. Most street fights involve wild, swinging punches with no technique. Add some slipping and straight punches and you're more than good to go in a street fight.
@ChadHowseFitness nice man. very similar to what my boxing coach teaches me, since i suck at slipping against good fighters lol. Have you been taught to read the shoulders? One coach has told me this, so that if a shoulder comes forward, that cues a straight punch. If it opens up..hook/body punch. if it drops...uppercut/body punch. have you heard anything similar to this? thanks
@joeberger yes I've heard similar things. But I watch more of the chest. If you're going against a good fighter, they'll feint a lot with their shoulders. If you're focused too much on the shoulders, you can be deceived. But ya, they're great to look at along with the chest. Offensively, try feinting with your shoulders, not just your hands - it's a great way to catch a guy cheating...
@ASPEDBUSDRIVER1 - it comes with practice. But you have to move less distance to block than the opponent does to punch, which gives you an advantage, and they're also worried about the punches you're throwing at them. It's all one big chess game.
hay chad keep it up man, i'm loving the videos and learning alot, didn't realise you were the same chad who comments on nates page until this third vid he's another good guy. i think he's missing a treat not putting up vids on youtube i'd love to see some boxing related weight training.
@charleso182 thanks man. Ya I'm the same guy, I had a guest article on his site a few weeks back as well, did you get to see that? Nate's an awesome guy, I think he has a youtube page as well, I'll let you know what it is when I find it.
I'll get some boxing training type workouts up soon too. I left my video camera on a recent trip, so as soon as I get it back I'll post some new training vids.

@ChadHowseFitness nice man. very similar to what my boxing coach teaches me, since i suck at slipping against good fighters lol. Have you been taught to read the shoulders? One coach has told me this, so that if a shoulder comes forward, that cues a straight punch. If it opens up..hook/body punch. if it drops...uppercut/body punch. have you heard anything similar to this? thanks

@joeberger yes I've heard similar things. But I watch more of the chest. If you're going against a good fighter, they'll feint a lot with their shoulders. If you're focused too much on the shoulders, you can be deceived. But ya, they're great to look at along with the chest. Offensively, try feinting with your shoulders, not just your hands - it's a great way to catch a guy cheating...

nice video but how do you predict the punches being thrown at you so fast?

@ASPEDBUSDRIVER1 - it comes with practice. But you have to move less distance to block than the opponent does to punch, which gives you an advantage, and they're also worried about the punches you're throwing at them. It's all one big chess game.

@charleso182 thanks man. Ya I'm the same guy, I had a guest article on his site a few weeks back as well, did you get to see that? Nate's an awesome guy, I think he has a youtube page as well, I'll let you know what it is when I find it.
I'll get some boxing training type workouts up soon too. I left my video camera on a recent trip, so as soon as I get it back I'll post some new training vids.
Thanks for the comment, glad you're liking the vids. Any questions just let me know!
