Could you make a boxing workout

[@omersaroglu898]

Hi Tony, It's been while I started to follow you, I'd like to see strength training of a advanced boxer. For both lower body and upper body strength, I do weighted pull ups and dips, do they benefit me or should I quit and focus on different variations to improve my boxing power. My focus is to improve punching speed and power. I also take dumbells of 2.5kg to 7.5kg and holding them in my fist and begin to throw and pull back to improve my punching power , I'll look forward for your answer and help. You're appreciated with what you're doing, thank you.

[@darrenbetts2987]

Hi Tony could you do a video on how to load the body when throwing various combinations but also show how you might switch part way through if being countered. I know you’ve kind of covered it. Edit: could you do a video explaining the falling forward/into the punch method as used by Dempsey and Tyson.

Also remember your breathing when placing shots on the bag, exhaling when exerting force and inhaling in a resting state. This helps with effective muscle recruitment and kinetic linkage. You can also use breathing as a feint.

Ive been boxing for 14 years, not really competitively just spar with friends, and your footwork video helped me so much with my stamina. I never worked on footwork before because I thought mine was good enough. I been really doing footwork drills lately and surprisingly it has increased my cardio better than anything I dont know why. Must be my balance is better.

[@comparedtowhat2638]

I like how Tony tells us what he accomplished in a no nonsense way and without embellishments or telling us how great he is. Unlike many others, he always tells us how important it is to protect the head and the consequences of not doing so. If I was walking down a dark alley I would want Tony or someone like him with me. I also think I would simply enjoy just talking to him. Thanks Tony.

[@1970boggy]

Very helpful Tony, used to box myself as an amateur at a decent level. Lots of great advice 👍🏻

[@KJ-vc3sw]

Had a little boxing in college and learned just how much craft and hard work is involved. I've had a heavy bag in my garage for many years, and now that I'm seventy years old I find that it's excellent for cardio, stamina, and upper-body muscle tone, which is all the more important for me after having six-bypass open heart surgery three years ago. Watching this video I realize I'm doing some things wrong, but then I don't plan on getting in the ring or getting in too many street fights. Probably wouldn't work out too well. 😁

[@kiowhatta1]

Great video Tony. As you would already know, the heavy bag is popular but can encourage bad habits. I wanted to add to the points you made - my old coach use to tell me: if the bag is swinging towards you and out (in a straight line) throw straight punches as the bag swings AWAY (great for footwork, timing), if the bag swings side to side, throw hooks and uppercuts, again, try to hit the bag as it swings away as it is very easy to simply punch the bag as it swings toward you, but is risking wrist damage over time. Lastly, the biggest mistake I continue to make is to telegraph my punches with my eyes when going to the body, so I try to keep my eyes focused on the one spot on the bag. Cheers from Oz.

@@Tony_Jeffries hello Tony thanks for the reply, I started when I was 17 packed up at 21 after suffering a breakdown then picked it up again at around 30 , recently I have been coaching my daughter with the help off my old trainers,Bob Kipps and Dom negus /Ian Wilson but my training has took a back seat as sadly the demons came back . But they never win and I will bounce back as soon as I walk into the gym I feel at home. I can say from experience that boxing has in many ways saved me and many others so ambassadors like yourself are more important these days than you could imagine.

I swear he has a camera up in my gym and is just making lists to make fun of me. I throw bombs...and get tired within 30 sec. I don't move my head. I don't move my feet. I drop my hands between punches (though been working on that). I don't throw feints, BUT I keep watching your videos and I do notice that I have become aware of my deficiencies. Thinking about getting your video package. Looks like a really good deal right now. Ex body builder here...and I have grown to hate cardio, but hitting a heavy bag is fun and seems to get my heart rate up a good bit. Thanks for the motivation and making it simple for a complete amateur to understand what is going on.
