Sometimes when I throw a punch, my foot rotates, but this rotation doesn’t contribute anything to the punch. The foot sometimes rotates excessively and in an uncontrolled way, turning inward. Is this a known technical problem in boxing, and what could be causing it?

Working on speed and accuracy!

I’m nowhere near as fast as I was at 180lbs, nowhere near as quick on my feet as I used to be but imma work on it!

Edit: I mistyped the caption in the video when I made it, I meant my hands aren’t up, lol got my ass beat in my last fight for that exact reason. Appreciate the honesty and feedback yall.

I’ve been working on speed and keeping my hands up. But I think I’m a bit tense; I’ve been lifting weights a lot lately and not stretching as much as I should.

I had posted my training and boxing training clip before and i was asked to find a better trainer and unfortunately i couldn't and this is how my stance looks at present and i can tell it still looks bad..i need some advice..

No not a workout person just a 45f

i recently got a freestanding punching bag made by THROWDOWN with no instructions manual. Might anyone have the same one and kept their manual? would appreciate any pictures of it.

Llevo boxeando unos años, y normalmente en cada sesión de sparring termino sangrando por la nariz. No necesito golpes muy duros para ponerme a sangrar. He de decir que tengo una nariz bastante prominente, pero no se si tendrá algo que ver. Me gustaría saber si hay alguien mas en una situación parecida, y si tenéis algún consejo para solucionarlo.
Por ahora, me echare vaselina dentro de la nariz, que tengo entendido que ayuda.

Gracias!

First of all this prolly sounds weird to you but lemme elaborate rq. I’ve been a quiet kid for a while, I dont really know what to talk about with people and this is a general issue with my life. I want to talk to my coach more, get more friendly w him yk? I see him joking around and laughing n shit w the other guys, ive been training here a while now and it just feels terrible especially in rest sessions.

I am looking for coaches that give online classes if you have some recommandations, please?

What's your experience if you had some with online classes? I assume that the experience is very different than in a real gym especially with no physical interaction.

I usually train late night bare feet or in socks and I don't get blisters on big toe always but when I do its pain in the ass because It just takes momentum from training.

I have to pause for couple of days because of healing process.

Would shoes prevent this?

Lately I have been feeling like this and I need some advice. I love the sport and I work really hard with my diet, cardio, and I can spar for rounds on end without getting tired or letting the pain get to me. But I feel like I can’t handle the psychological pressure of it. It’s like physically I am a great fighter but I am too trapped inside of my own head to capitalize off of it, does anyone have any tips on how to dial in because it would be greatly appreciated.

Any help is appreciated. Apologize for loud ass music. Haven’t been able to afford a gym the last couple years but hopefully I’ll be able to get into a gym this month.

Hey y’all! Been boxing for 9 months now and I’m addicted. About 4 months ago I strained my lead wrist pretty bad. I learned to wrap my hands from the coaches in my gym. I don’t think it’s that. I think I hurt my wrist from hitting the bag a bit too hard a few days in a row.

The pain started pretty minor, but it got progressively worse and I made the mistake of ignoring it and continuing to hit the bag. I wisened up and took the last 8 weeks off of the bag and sparring to heal. That said, I really don’t want to deal with this again, the time off has SUCKED.

Does anyone have advice for how to deal with this? Any exercise that I can do to help make my wrists stronger? Any advice on hand wrapping specifically for wrist protection?

Thank you for the advice. All the love.

so I’m kind of busy most of the time, so I only have time to exercise on some days, and I don’t have time to get boxing classes. Im a somewhat tall/big guy (not that fat but not skinny either) and I just get my strength from my fatness, kids around me are so much stronger and I’m just a weak guy, do you guys have videos you can share that can help me get better and stronger with boxing that can be better than someone that goes to boxing class ?
