Boxing is a psychological hack to beat anxiety and depression. I am not saying it will eliminate it. But if you are a 8/10 anxious or feeling down on a bad day, post training you will definitely be 5/10 or below most likely. Things that bothered you and made you worrisome will start to fade away. I can't explain in words, but I hope who ever is out there, takes the step and goes to a boxing gym near them. Don't over think it, just go and get weird if need be. But just go, please. It has changed my life mentally.
i had 0 confidence and depression for years,i started boxing and boom.Everything gone.Like i couldnt even go to a job and stuff cause i had 0 confidence.I really love boxing,and i put it above everything for helping me stay....
As a clinical psychologist I agree with you 100%. I refer a lot of clients to a good boxing gym. Working on the bags and mitts helps the body release trauma and cultivate a positive mindset. 💪
New sub. Anger management is what I'm in it for. There's just something about attacking something that can't press charges thats absolutely exhilarating!!!
I just started boxing about a month ago, I became addicted instantly. The endurance, the high, the sweat behind the cardio, its a rush and sometimes I really be training for 2-3 hours at a time. I loved it so much that I became a kickboxing instructor. With the Mental Health aspect of it all, yes this is a wonderful outlet - especially for build up anger, or like you said patience on edge. I grew up going to anger management and never once did hey implement this, which would be the best category for self-esteem and mental health. Also, the last thing I wanna throw in here is that as a LADY, this brings another form of self-respect, self-improvement, self-confidence to the gates. I don't think I will ever be able to put my gloves down.
I’m new to boxing I was in a gym for 2 months then got injured but now I’m back training and what you said about stress and anger is 100% true. Every time I leave the gym I’m so calm and don’t react to how I would to things before.
I'm a man who likes to scream when gets hype and like making significant others laugh, but when the opposite happens, I can't... I can't express my negative emotions through scream or a destructive/unproductive bevahior. So I realise that as the man I want to be I want to stay quiet, don't talk, don't react, but *"act"* through boxing with... technique. I'm getting back to boxing, so I know that I'll have to take about the technique and after that I'll then express my emotions while applying the technique.
I’ve been training for about 2 weeks and I already feel 10x better than before i was diabetic and I feel like I have beaten it also i was fighting with depression and i feel like I don’t even need to take meds although I’ll still take them but it’s just how boxing training makes me feel my confidence boosted up as well, I can breathe deeper and feel a whole lot stronger, I just wish I would have never left the sport when I was younger to compete but at least it will benefit my mental and physical health in a good way just training.
I can’t wait to do boxing/combat sports for my pent-up rage that I have been battling with for years because of a terrible coworker. This was a fantastic and quite frankly a refreshing video to watch. You got yourself a new subscriber 👍
@@coachv3436 Appreciate the response good sir. The only problem on my end is that my pops won’t let me anywhere near a gym because he thinks I’ll get hurt despite people going to Boxing/MMA gyms for fitness and discipline(pretty much what you said in the video). I’ve tried but can’t reason with him despite being a grown person myself. I suppose the best thing I could do is purchase a punching bag along with hand wraps and gloves to help vent out my frustration as of late. After all I am looking for an outlet for my anxiety/stress instead of fighting to be an amateur or pro.
I went today and my anxiety decreased. Myself worth improved, the team of people there looked very down to earth, though i slowed them down, they were patient with me and not annoyed. I wish i started sooner. Thats my only regret of it all.
Im about to join a boxing gym near me. This video makes the decision easier for me to join it I have been dealing with issues lately especially being triggered when people are staring at me for no reason mean while im minding my own business I hate that i feel like doing something to them which is not the right thing. I also been dealing with anxiety ever since i quit weed 6 weeks ago started getting paranoid when i smoked thats the reason i quit lol. I honestly believe boxing while give my the discipline i need to become the best version of myself. I know i can fix these issues but it will take hard work from me and Im willing to put in that work. Thanks for the video.
Thank you Brother yes, once you start getting the confidence of getting in shape and getting familiar with your capabilities to Boxing, a lot of other great attributes will begin to fall in place. Check out my course here. It will help you from A-to-Z and give you workout routines to do in and out of the box in the gym and it comes with a consultation from me. Coachvboxing.com
I’m actually learning how to box and I’d admit it’s so..hard. Like I feel like giving up because I feel like I can’t do it. But I will still keep pushing. And you’re right,I have alot of anger inside my mind. And thank you I needed this man!.
@@matthewjameson8809 for me I got the basics down pretty fast just started too 1 week in they had me sparring hope you remember me I’m going to be a future champ
@@bryanwithay1978 I understand man. But take in everything life has to offer, and don't close yourself off to paths or careers just because they don't seem extraordinary or glamorous at first.
thanks coach I got the idea from this video to fight my alcohol issues with boxing. Ive taken like 5 classes already and I never feel like drinking alcohol or drank after boxing training amazing!
My son has Tourette. When he is boxing, its like it dissapered during the boxing and a couple of hours after the boxing. It helps. And he is much much much more confident.
I use to get into tons of street fights, I hated everyone, see people happy made me violent and want to hurt them cuz I was never happy so it was like a FU type of feeling. When i started boxing that shT just went away. I started feeling less angry at the world, I began taking accountability for my own bs. Do boxing if you struggling with mental health.
Just found your channel. I’m 41 and put on 30lbs in COVID. I’ve always loved boxing but never had the balls to actually go to a boxing gym. At 41 is there any point in going to a boxing gym? Would people expect me to spar/fight? I love the idea of that but scares the shite out of me. Or should I just do some boxerzie classes? Cheers man. Keep up the great videos!!!
Thank you for your support brother!! Actually the health benefits are second to none, I have an amazing A to Z how to prepare for the boxing gym an train from home course available soon DM me in IG for more info! Coach.V_
Hey coach V. I want to do good in boxing but im too scared to spar and fight. Im in excellent shape but im just too scared. Is there any tips you have? I guess im scared of getting hurt or beat badly. Is boxing just not meant for me? I have the work ethic as i put in crazy amount of work in the ring and i run 4-6 miles almost daily. I love training for boxing but once it comes to sparring i back out or i just get really scared.
@Vincent Morrison i did spar like 2 times and it was my opponent going easy on me as well. I was freaked out but i still manned up and did it. The problem usually is the coach wanted to just throw me to spar some already super experienced dude and that wouldve just made me get beat to a pulp. I dont know why he thought that was a good idea but i told him i wasnt gonna spar that guy.
@Vincent Morrison thanks alot for your words. That motivated me to at least not be afraid anymore. I see your points and they make lots of sense. Cant grow without risks for sure. Devin haney is a besst in the ring as hes so skilled and his defense is amazing. Great points!
I have made videos on my channel about how anxiety and depression affects me. It really sucks and I can for sure say that being more sedentary had made it all worse. 😔
I like boxing after dealing with all the dbags at work but cant do nothing about without getting sued and put in prison and pretty much all the things that were stated in the video
Im not a coach but I’d say you should have actual fighting experience for self defense sparring and competing is pretty different from just hitting mitts or lifting for health it’s not really needed

Do you recommend sparing to someone who only wants to utilize boxing for health and self defense only?
Im not a coach but I’d say you should have actual fighting experience for self defense sparring and competing is pretty different from just hitting mitts or lifting
for health it’s not really needed
Is only sparring once a week able to prevent cte
I am angry at a co worker he makes my life at work a living crap.
