I got too comfortable and got into this sorry state (1st pic ) how do I get down to my desired weight (64-65kg) from 73kg and regain my physique (similar to how I look at 62kg in the 2nd pic) im trying to cut to my natural weight class.
I can let my hands fly but idk when I watch others they do it effortlessly. I am pulling punches or pushing them? How can I snap them more?
Today I'm working on my left jab and simple combos. Also trying to be light on my feet without jumping around too much. How am I looking?
Hi guys I need your opinion on the best disposable contact lenses for boxing, I have a eye grade of -5.00 so it makes things really blurry. I can spar without but I feel like my reaction time is too slow. Thanks in advance
Hi! So, I'd like to know how you guys box with a mouthguard, especially when it comes to breathing, because I have a little trouble exhaling. I breathe in through my nose and out through my mouth. When I throw punches during a fight, I exhale through the sides of the mouthguard, but when I do that, I “drool”—it often sends little droplets of drool flying, and over time it gets pretty unpleasant (I drew a little picture so you can see what happens, the mouthguard is in grey).
It might be handy if you’re trying to blind your opponent with venom, but I’m a human, not a cobra.
Is this normal? Could it depend on the quality of the mouthguard?
I made a post a few weeks ago of me screwing around on my heavy bag.
Everyone was very critical and I appreciate all the advice, tips, and even the negative stuff.
Here is a more recent clip.
I would love your guy’s opinions.
Sorry for the quality it was dark out so I had to up the brightness and exposure.

Hello!
I am new to the whole idea of boxing/ kickboxing (32F) for exercise but maybe I would like to have a fight in future (not professional but sparring I guess. lol). The situation currently is that I have a lot of suppressed anger and I am really stressed overall. I am out of shape but feel this is my best option to relieve my anger and stress, at least physically. lol. I also have lots of questions, would anyone mind answering them? I like the thought of having to sparr or have a practice/training fight in the future, if I had a trainer, would they help me with that? As far as gear, I have MMA hand wraps ( the one with the knuckle cushins) and I have regular hand wraps. I don't want to buy boxing gloves yet until I borrow the pair in my training session or class so I know how they feel on me. Does anyone have tips they can give me on how to start? Or share a story of how they started? Can I just go to the gym with a punching bag to punch the bag? Would I have to be afraid of looking dumb if I just did that? Should I try to invest in a trainer? How do you find good trainers or boxing gyms? Will a boxing trainer also expect a diet plan or is that for a fitness coach? - Thank you for your advice. ☺️
I’m not saying that I will, and I’m not gonna get my hopes up. I’m just curious if it’s possible or not.
How long does it usually take to learn the boxer skip on jump rope and are there any tips? I've been trying to learn it for some time but still cant do it.
I have 40 private lessons with a great coach here in my country. But im looking to improve faster, become better. Is buying the course from tony jeffries worth it? Or not?
I am a complete beginner. I’ve watched a few videos, but when I record myself and watch it back, I look a lil goofy. Anyone else had this problem trying to get into the sport?
Also, here’s an attached video for any additional tips I can get.
After two years of technical training, I tried sparring for the first time and honestly, it was such a devastating experience. My opponent was super experienced, more muscled, and heavier. Probably, one of the top athletes in the gym. He had no mercy and I got so many punches.
Now, I have a bruise around my eye. But more painfully, I have headache over days. Is this normal and how to handle a headache after hard sparring/ fights?
I made a sparring game that helps work on some boxing fundamentals. Good for beginner or advanced sparring. It's a fun way to actually get a competitive tournament going without things getting out of hand.
The workbook has a guide with some good basics.
Tips in comments please (green or blue shorts) we both don’t box btw
I’ve only got two injuries so far in sparring and there both ribs. I realize this is gonna happen but i just wanna do what I can to prevent it. I came across this video on the internet which has the four movements you wanna do with your abs
Anti extension -dead bugs
Anti rotation - pallof press
Anti laterial flexion - suit case carry
Hip flexion with neutral spine - leg raises
From being into lifting/sports for years I can agree with this but boxing is a different/new world I wanna get yall prospective
Is my roll and slip good? I cant imagine the correct way to roll and slip for counter punching(i'm in the red gloves)
