- www.myboxingcoach.com - I've said it before and I will say it again, simple works.
When developing boxing skills, even at the elite level, simple boxing drills are the staple of ever growing, ever developing boxer.
This boxing drill helps combine footwork movement with punching.
Ensure that you show commitment in bringing this type of boxing drill to your boxing training.
This boxing drill will bring bring benefits to the raw novice and the elite-level boxer.
My favourite part of the drill is that pivot combined with the lead hand uppercut, it's really slick and smart.
Don't forget and download your Beginner Boxer Toolkit (click the picture on the right). There's lots of info in there that will help you develop your boxing skills.
Questions and comments below please.
Cheers
Fran
PS - I need to stop saying 'OK'...sounding (and looking) more like Mr Garrison with every video - กีฬา

The best boxing coach on TH-cam
steve b thanks Steve, appreciate that mate.
Yes i agree
Yep. Frans technic is so nice to watch like art.
Undoubtedly the best!
Great explanation. And fundamentals.
Love this guy, brilliant drill. Will start working on it immediately. Thanks coach
Brilliant fran, these are the simple drills I learned when I was young, always got complimented on my footwork and use of angles
i found your channel about a month ago and started to train, i'm 41 and haven't put a pair of gloves on since i was 14. Thank you for the inspiration and clear instructions.
I love the simple explanations of the little differences that actually make all the difference, like the timing for the pivot-hooks to either side. For me, that's great coaching - the things that observation and practice alone might never tease out.
One question - what's the target for the uppercuts? Especially after the pivot to the left - what's the target for the left uppercut, which seems to be thrown from a long way around the opponent?
I'm in my late forties now and have done various martial arts over the years, but have been away from it for a long time (bad hips joints etc..). I have always wanted to learn boxing techniques, and to improve my mobility as I get older. Your videos have been a massive help to me, and my understanding of the physics and movement of boxing. Thank you
Wonderful, Thanks Fran.
Thnks such a beautiful drill, no one has made such amazing playlist till now❤❤❤
thank you Fran

Thank you so much Fran! Your clear, concise, simple and direct style of teaching makes you the best on the internet.

Thank you Marcus
Gracias coach!!
Mucho gusto
Excellent
Thanks Kristijan
Thanks very much
Hey Coach Fran,
Could do someone Videos of fundamental mechanic of the strikes?
Jab, Cross, Hook etc...
Really really great
Cheers pal
Far the best site, far the best. Basics are explained and demonstrated. How I wish I'd found you earlier Sir. So much nonsense preached out there. Basics, basics, basics. I am 55, took up boxing as marshall arts left my knees knackered and I have a new lease of life and a fresh perspective and happiness. Thank you Sir.
thank you
yes my main man is back! respect from the toon fran 👍
Howay the lads - cheers pal!
Excellent stuff. This is the same as doing a pattern in traditional martial arts. Its a repeatable pattern that teaches you sensitivity to your technique and movement. It's funny because so many people trash talk forms but they can be very beneficial.
Freestyle Tae Kwon Do Federation yeah I had a friend who practiced karate katas and he did well in street fights.
Starting to appreciate boxing sport
you do a lot for the boxing community, nothing but good words for you! :D keep it up coach
Thanks very much, appreciate you taking the time to comment
you are very good man thanks for sharing the knowledge for brazill szz
My pleasure, thank you
That push in, pivot is very pretty 👌🏼
It is Zakariya - I really like the uppercut with it, really flows well.
I love this! I'm going to use this on thursday when I coach my boxing class.
Can you elaborate a bit on why you throw the left hook ON the pivot and the right hook AFTER the pivot? I suppose it is because of balance and needing the kinetic chain to be in place, but maybe there is more to it?
You need to drive off your back foot to give the rear hand hook good power, but you can't do that until you put your foot down so you have to pivot first. With a lead hand hook you're pivoting on top of your front foot so it acts like a centerpoint that you spin around while pivoting, which puts the bodymass that is spinning around your planted leg into the hook
I do appreciate coach!
Thank you
A lot to have fun these days. I didn´t know this was popular in eastern Europe, I haven´t read much about styles differences per country. Thank´s.
PD: Mister Garrison is cool hahaha.
Best boxing coach.
Thank you
You make really good videos
thank you - just bringing the gym to TH-cam, glad it helps :-)
Great
Great video
Thanks Kevin
LEGEND of youtube
This dude should be doing seminars up and down the country.....
Another good video thanks coach, any thoughts on the Joseph Parker vs Hughie Fury fight over the weekend?
Thank you. No real thoughts, not a great fight at all really was it :-(
Thank man ur the best
Cảm ơn một chia sẻ tuyệt vời về môn này
Wish i lived in UK and you were my coach
Thanks Patrik
Like your style. 8-)
Fran the bad man Sands! another dope as fuck video. very impressive neutral head positioning when you drill my friend, you manage to perfectly throw your strike without turning the head even a bit. it's something that sounds minor but many top tier fighters still arent grasping in all facets be it mma, boxing or mt/ kickboxin.
Wow, thanks mate. Never even considered that Cory but it is an excellent observation on a really important technical detail. Top man!!!
Hi coach love your work big fan here !
Would you make another video about Mike Tyson s style also what do you think about boxing styles like i mean a long video about boxing styles would be really good
OK, will put that on the list and see what I can come up with. Thanks for the suggestion
meanwhile you can search for Tight Defence Cus d'Amato and my lousy channel.
Very good drill I will use it with my University Boxing club students
Thanks coach, glad you feel it can work with your boxers
This is a great drill ,progressive
Great video but when you're pivoting do you pivot first then throw a strike or strike first then pivot
Woah just subscribed u got so much knowledge, i got a question , in the gym they teach us to slip by using ur shoulders , and i saw in ur videos that u use ur legs , should i use legs and which one is better and why? , thank u so much
I prefer legs as a rule, safer and better to throw shots afterwards (better balance)
Good
Vous êtes très fort coaching yassine d Algérie
Hey, new to boxing, like your channel very much! I'm training alone in my garage so i wanted to ask for how long should I do techniques from this video to build solid base? I have trained judo and karate for 10 years, had 5 years layoff and wanted to start boxing. ty
we split our week into four parts. monday only techniques, tuesday partnerwork and/or working at the punch bag, wednesday strength training and thursday working on punch bag or shadowboxing with weights.
so you always have to include techniques in your training.
and a little tip, if you are new in boxing, dont do it alone. you can do a lot of things wrong and you need someone to tell. otherwise you get some bad habits and its hard to get them out afterwards. and these videos alone are not enough. this guy for example explain things good but his footwork is not the best.
So on the moving two are you planting the right foot before throwing the cross or are you doing both at the same time? I've been confused on this for years.
Thanks so much for the amazing videos. I love your focus on footwork and PRECISE technique!
I was working these footwork drills yesterday. My question is, when you’re pivoting to the left, do you usually throw a left punch first instead of a right?
For example, I could definitely see throwing a Pivot Left, 3, 2
But would you ever want to throw Pivot Left, 2?
Or does it just all depend on where your opponent is?
I train for fitness. Still, I like to think about how everything applies in the ring.
Hi Sue. thank you for watching. You can definitely follow a right hand with a pivot left. The shot goes and then the pivot. The thing about pivoting left, or to the lead hand side, is that you can pivot WITH the lead hand shot. Lead hand hook is especially effective. And yes, absolutely you can follow a pivot left with a 2 :-)
@@myboxingcoach Awesome. I've been working all of these drills and have the hang of them now. Of course, I'm sure all of that would fall apart in a real fight or sparring situation. 😉 But still fun to work on!!
💪💪💪👍❤❤thankyou so mach
Hi coach, I am beginner and not having boxing gym. So, I am following your beginner toolkit and adopting cycle 1. In this I am focused on footwork, punches and block and Perry. I have added this 4 drills into my regime and also doing some from JT beginner footwork. Do you provide some more drills to practice at home.
Hi Tushar. There will have been videos emailed to you. Thanks for your comments here and on the site...appreciated
Hey coach, got a question. Is it too late for me to get in the ring? I'm 26 but I have the heart and mindset to be fully disciplined and dedicated. Love working on skills at home but would love to get in the ring. Great lessons by the way keep them coming!
Nope - That age is fine. Get to the boxing club and get started
Is there a difference in the footwork and use of hips when throwing a punch when stationary in comparison to when throwing a punch when moving? For example, if you should use your left foot and rotate the hips when throwing a jab, how does that work or change when stepping? Thanks
It's about linking together individual skills Greg. There's videos on the channel and my site, it's a case of 'instills with drills'
Great tips. thanks. Going backwards it feels more natural for me to throw a 2-1 (with the right hand thrown with the back foot moving back and the jab thrown with the front leg moving back) rather than a 1-2. Any thoughts on this Fran?
Go with it Bernard, I often encourage the boxers to use 2-1.
Thanks Fran
How long is that tape you’re standin on m8?
awesome channel !!!
PS still wondering wheter or not is it pointless to try these drills _only at home_
I can't join my local gym right now
they will bring benefits regardless of where you do them. I encourage my boxers to do them at home
+Fran Sands thanks coach !
How often should you do this drill?
Hey Fran. A question, if you don't mind. On round 3, with the hook, why do you throw the left hook with the pivot, but the right hook after the pivot is completed?
Very awkward pivoting right with the back hand, lead hand hooking and pivoting is more fluid.
@@myboxingcoach Thanks, Coach, but I think you may have misunderstood my question. I meant the timing of the hook, not which hand to lead with. On the first pivot, to the left, you throw the lead hook AS you pivot, but on the pivot to the right, you completed the pivot first, THEN threw the hook. See what I mean? With respect, as always.
Hi Coach, I am unable to download beginners toolkit. It is showing file not found. Can u help?
Hey Tushar. Post a comment on the site and I will send you a copy. Not sure what the problem is, will investigate
Hello coach.my name is faouaz,45 ys old from Algeria.i've recently started learning boxing starting with ur videos from 2011 using the order by TH-cam ...can you please give them numbers coz Its confused n I'd rather learn techniques in the best order
When you pivot to the right and throw the uppercut, do you have to pause just as you did when you threw the right hook?
You can do it either way. If you let the uppercut go as you pivot it will be less powerful, but still a great shot.
Fran Sands great thanks. Also, I forgot to begin with this but I absolutely love your advice and videos. You have taught me a lot about 'true' boxing and not just trying to look good. I feel that kind of advice isn't given nearly enough (if at all...). Thank you!
Some boxing trainers say that when going backwards, you should step back with right leg first and punch with right arm, then move left leg back and punch with left arm.
In this video, your saying to step back with right leg whilst punching with left arm?
Which is the actual correct way? Is there not one unified way that all trainers agree on with foot work? because every trainer on TH-cam seems to teach differently and I don’t want to pick up bad habits.
Hello coach, watched most of your videos since i discovered you this month and i'm just getting in to boxing. My gym has this thing where i have to learn more before i spar there but i spar with my friends. From the southpaw vs orthodox, is there any way you would recommend me closing the distance without getting caught with a 1 or 2? Btw he is taller than me by a few inches probably heavier too
Sorry if this is long, but any drills you'd recommend for flinching? It kind of messes me up and i slip and throw blind punches a lot if you know what i mean. Thank you so much. :)
Check out this vid on dealing with a taller guy - don't concern yourself with the southpaw v orthodox thing at this point, keep it simple: www.myboxingcoach.com/3-tips-beat-a-tall-boxer/. BTW, your coaches sound like smart guys, listen to them well :-)

Fran Sands thank you sir!
So everytime I throw a combo i should always move in angles and head movement?
Well, not necessarily. Always good to hit and not be hit, so head movement is good. These drills are really to get feet working with hands. You can practice other drills to incorporate head movement (or vary this drill).
