DECEO 21 take some time to travel to your closest gym at least once a week to work with a coach. Hell send you home with a lot to think about and work on
And you can often find coaches that will sell you an hour or two at a time of personal training, whenever you wanna buy some time from them. That way you're not locked into a membership.
I've been training with someone 2 times a week for a little over a year, and during my free time I try to absorb as much knowledge as I can about boxing and combat sports in general. This channel has been the most informative, concise and to-the-point about the subject as any I've come across. Truly excellent information, no wasted words, and a slick presentation. Thank you!

It is very easy to correct telegraphing. It doesn't need a year to fix this. Take a band and attach it to something in front of you. Bring it back to your guard position under tension. Throw your punches with the band pulling your punch forward. This will also teach you to add speed to your punches (I believe Fran Sands recommends this technique for speed). What I tell my students is to imagine you have a fire hose running from your back foot to your fist: the water is turned on at high pressure and drives your hip, shoulder and fist forward while you are relaxed and loose. Another image i use is of a bow under tension and your fist is an arrow. You relax and let loose the arrow. It doesn't go back (telegraphing) first, but straight forward. The problem is that tension and pushing your punches feels powerful, but is weak. Relaxing and throwing your punches is powerful. This is counter intuitive, so is often difficult to grasp. Pushing punches wastes energy, and boxing is all about elegance - eliminating energy leaks. I hope this adds to the discussion.
I don't like fighting but i LOVE fight training. Plus you never know when you could run into trouble even if you don't think you will. Love learning and this guy is good. It's like your levelling up a skill like in the matrix. Super enjoyable!
Your videos have been a huge help since I started training in Muay Thai. I started out initially just wanting fitness and agility, but I’ve realized it’s also about my self-esteem and confidence. I’ve been a pushover most of my life and avoid conflict like the plague if I can. While it makes me look like the chillest guy ever who doesn’t get phased by aggression, it’s really been because I’m scared of confrontation. Whilst training in Muay Thai doesn’t make me want to go out and pick fights (obviously), it does help me feel confident as I know if the worst happened and I was forced to defend myself, I would be more likely to “win” a fight. Advice like in these videos has been a huge motivating factor as it’s helped me continuously stay aware of my flaws in training, and made it so I also have things to improve on.
Another quick tip to keep your chin tucked inn is to pull the front neck end of your t-shirt up to your mouth and bite down on it (your chin and lower lip is on the inside of your shirt and your upper lip is out) this keeps the chin down..and also gives the indirect practice of wearing a mouth piece. Try it!

Some people get so caught up in slugging the bag they forget to be aware of those little mistakes. It helps to be self critical so you can make corrections during the workout.Also a lack of endurance often leads to mental mistakes that can get ya beat. Nice video.
Great collection of tips Shane, stellar work as always bro! One bad habit that you will see in any boxing gym with beginners is that they will stand “in range” and just wail on the bag.. no footwork, no in and out… The other very common one is just going “full on” with every punch and combo instead of varying the application of power … ..There are so many things we can all sharpen up on… Love these vids!
The best instructor videos I have seen so far in the net I can remember. I have been practicing Kyokushin Karate but my sparring with a heavy bag always sucked. Extremely great video. I learned more here thatn years in the dojo. Keep up the good work. You are an instructor with a good karma.
I took a video of me on the heavy bag and I was surprised at how many bad habits snuck in as I got tired. Hands too low, punching at chest height and not extending my punches
I've been throwing punches for 15 years, and I can say without a doubt that learning to throw without any telegraphing takes years to learn. When you do though, it's terrifying.
Huh, I dont share this issue. Sometimes the real problem with a particular bad habit is not being honest with yourself and thinking you're the shit. Be self conscious and learn to criticize yourself more honestly and accurately, and this "takes years" deal turns into a few months of real, dedicated training.
I don't have any intentions of becoming a fighter or anything, but ever since my local gym added a punching bag, I've been so tempted to hit it. I just bought some hand wraps and gloves and watched your videos before trying, and man did it feel great. Wonderful stress relief and great way to end my workout!
This video deserves a million views. I wish I'd watched before my first sparring session the other week, because I got tagged a LOT for not following a lot of the simple common sense disciplines you cover here. A great video for fighters going from bag work > sparring. Thanks for making this. Invaluable.
Thanks for tips, I definitely have some of these bad habits. Tomorrow, I'm going to try to implement the better/good habits during my heavy bag sessions :)
Good point on avoiding telegraphing. A knockout punch can easily be done, with low power, as long as you land it fast and accurate, at the right moment. Overloading power before you throw your 'knockout' punch, will not only slow you down, but it also telegraphs your attack, making it easier for your opponent to avoid.
Thank you so much for your advices ! I do cardio box and Krav-Maga, and used to always forget to keep my guard up, until I got punched in the face. Now I try to always think about it !
Thank you fight tips for helping me with my last 4 fight all have become my matches and I have one coming up and I am hoping to be able to to win it I saw some of his training and he is a counter fighter so thank you for your videos
1. opposite hand Finger tips to eyebrow, elbow under hand to protect body 2. tuck chin when punching, put ball under chin 3. don't telegraph or load shots 4. don't lean in or over extend, weight evenly distributed in legs, move feet instead of leaning into shots 5. retract hands a to b, b to a, 6. have an exit strategy, step back flick jab to keep opponent at bay, go under hook and create angle, clinch bag, bicep tricep control squeeze wait for ref, elbows and knees 7. no more than 2 step straight back, create angles, or circle out, step back in with shot 8. don't go full power, pace yourself, keep breathing, exhale noise a little air out. 9.

very good tips, i will keep some good points in mind when training! BUT i can understand to always keep getting better, but sometimes, especially when i have an injury or im wasted by my workday (im working as gardener and stone setter and im not the youngest anymore) im just going to training to maintain.
Shane! Love your channel. I'm legally blind/visually handicapped. At night or in dark areas like bars, restaurants, and parking lots I see nothing. During the day or in bright light I can only see blurs. To the extent I need my white cane. I currently do judo/bjj and take a few muay thai/boxing classes. You're very bright and inventive. Would you mind sparring a few rounds with your eyes closed (striking and grappling) just to give me a few pointers. Maybe if you know first hand what my problem is you can help with some tips. Like what my priorities should be and how to execute them. I dont expect to be a pro mma fighter. My only realistic goal is to be a better fighter than I was yesterday. I do this for fun, fitness, selfdefense (live in NYC and I travel to some of the roughest areas for my job), and to prove to myself that my disability doesn't have to stop me. A problem I struggle with daily. I try to spar atleast 2x a week, I think the best plan is to use basic strikes to make contact, close the distance, and get into a grappling situation clinch or groundwork. Anything you can add or subtract from this would be great. Thank you for any advice you can give. Please come to a gym in NYC next time you tour so I could meet and train with you.

No vlogging type cheese overload vids but simple, straightforward instruction. Great stuff man! Subbed!
Bonus tip really hit home. I spent a lot of time on the bag but I’m not progressing as much as I should.
Gotta get moving, destroy that bag like it just shat on your family's good name or maybe kicked your dog. Visualize the destruction you can set forth
This is a great video. Just got a heavy bag at home and I definitely find myself doing a few of these things
Shane, your videos are great. Have learned a lot from them. These small mistakes are difficult to notice but are so important if you do many of them
Great video and very good points. Sometimes you do not realise what is obviously wrong until someone tells you.
