Rolling with Punches

Roll with punches by angling yourself and not being square. Keep your chin and jaw on your shoulder, especially at impact. C-your back, so that you look like a fetus - flex your abdomen and bring your hit to your elbow and then tuck your head into your guard.

@albertpope Have you ever had a momentary dislocation in your shoulder or heard of anyone ever having one while boxing?This weekend me and a friend were drunk, slap boxing (BTW witch is the dumbest game ever, always winds up in a fight)and I threw some kine of slap over hand right softly, he jumps up and blocks it like a jump shot, when I felt my right sholder partialy dislocate for a spit second followed by a little pain.Anything I can do to avoid this or exercise to?Bad shoulders from weights.

@sz42781 Boxer push ups. Elbows in but hands wide. That makes the pushups much harder by straining your upper back and sub-scapula. That part of the back holds your shoulders in place. Don't do that for a few weeks though. First do pushups only with your shoulders and your elbows locked, on your knees for the first thousand, then you can do them on your toes, normal push up style. They are easy so do one hundred if you can.

@albertpope I have a question pertaining to footwork . Say I throw a jab followed by a combo from long range where my front foot advances but my rear foot stays behind and piviots.(Now my legs are far apart) If I want to retreat what do I do just bring the lead foot back to where I started? Also What if I what to stay on the inside , Just bring the rear foot in? Sounds silly I know but I want good footwork.

[albertpope]

@xXFocusRecord Don't leave one foot back. Always step and replace. That means when the lead foot steps in, the rear foot should follow. If you want to move in and out, step in with both feet and then step out with both feet. Stepping in with only one foot leaves you too wide and off balance. Also, your rear hand won't have any KO power if your rear leg is too straight. There is not enough compression in that rear leg when it is straight, so lead step, rear step and then combo punch.

[AccordGTR]

Good tips. I'll try it in the ring next time. Thanks

[MrAmerico1982]

Good job. Funny how when you start talking about a fetus the lady in the back heard it and walked away like oops he said fetus! lol. Good vid

[adriankastelic]

I like it when the woman walks up to the door and wants to use the spinning machines and sees you talking to yourself. Good vid though keep it up.

[strictlydancezone]

i have a stupid question. you mentioned that we need to kinda stick the jaw to the shoulder, right? then wouldn't it be "flexing" your muscles and compromise your punches? im genuinely new to boxing so i don't know =)
