🔥 Elevate Your Shadowboxing Workouts! 🔥
In this video, we discuss the use of resistance bands in shadowboxing. Resistance bands help us focus on speed and break down the monotony.
Follow these essential rules:
Part 3
*Focus on speed (the faster your hand returns in position, the faster the next punch goes out)
*Combine small foot adjustments continuously (fast feet, fast hands)
*Practice good hand discipline on the way out and back in (work from high guard)
*Focus on longer combinations
Part 2 Recap
*Pick the right weight (0.5-5lbs) based on your fitness level and size.
TIP: 16oz gloves = 1lb of weight.
*Throw straight punches only (jab & cross) quickly and with full extension.
*Continue to move around and keep hands up between punches.
*Set a goal for your workout (E.g., advanced beginner level 6+ months):
- 6 (3-minute) rounds
- 3 rounds weight-free + 3 rounds with weights (150 punches/round with weights)
- The last round is weight-free
Part 1 Recap
*Warm Up First: Remember, shadowboxing is the workout, not the warm-up.
*Visualize Your Opponent: Imagine an opponent right in front of you.
*Throw Real Punches: Punch with speed, power, and intent.
*Keep Two Things Going: If the first dish doesn't work out, you have a backup on the back burner.
*Use All Techniques: Incorporate all your skills, but focus on specific techniques when needed.
*Recover Your Punches: Practice bringing your punches back effectively.
Transform your shadowboxing sessions into powerful and purposeful workouts. Happy shadowboxing!
