How To Do Boxing Training Workouts

To become a good boxer, it's important to have a good workout. In this video, we're introduced by an ABA qualified boxing tutor the main aspects of a boxing workout: technique and strength and conditioning.

Hi, I'm Simon from Box Smart. I'm an Amateur Boxing Association qualified boxing tutor. Today, I'm going to go through some boxing techniques with you.

For more information visit our site, Boxing-Classes dot net. So this is how to do boxing workouts. There are two different aspects of a boxing workout, one being the technical side of it, the second part being the strength and conditioning side.

So, with the technical side of things you're looking at more pad work and going through the techniques, breaking movements down. So things like getting in a good set position, throwing a jab correctly, turning your hips all the time, so all of the movement comes from your feet and your hips, not so much your arms. So, things like throwing jabs, crosses, single punches of hooks and uppercuts.

Then moving on from there, progression, moving into combinations, so from here, you throw 1-2 and then moving on from there again, 1-2, rolling your head out. So, we're starting to put all of the techniques that we've learned now. We're putting them together into what's called a combination.

You can do this on your own in a shadow box, or in a mirror, or if you've got a partner to work with in a safe environment, you can do this via pad work. Moving on to the strength and conditioning side of things, this is more where you get your base fitness so that you can box for the two to three minute round that you're going to go into. This would be incorporating CV workout of starting off with running which you can do with no equipment, doesn't cost anything, and you can do it anywhere, or if you've got a skipping rope, be it a speed rope or a heavy leather rope, it doesn't matter.

You can do different drills with the skipping rope. Moving on from this you can do body weight exercises, which I would use the typical press-up, sit-up, and squat. Then again you can start using dumbbells, kettle bells, or weights during a proper strength and conditioning class.

When you do this though, make sure it's in a safe environment you're doing it in and someone shows you the proper techniques when you're doing the exercises, to make sure you're safe at all times. So that's the two main parts to the boxing training, being the technique and the strength and conditioning. This works for a complete beginner who has never boxed before all the way through to world champions.

Everyone has to work on these two different aspects of boxing. So, that's boxing drills. .
