"Fight not to destroy but to protect" that's why I'm learning boxing

[McSqueezyTheCow]

This is perfect timing. I literally picked up a punching bag set yesterday from my trainer. Thanks as always, Tony.

Just found your channel two days ago, and I must say you are a great teacher sir. Your ambition to teach and little bit of light hearted humour is unmatched.
Thank you for the quality videos.

[henrysevern]

I wish I had these videos when I was in my teens, well done.

Also remember your breathing when placing shots on the bag, exhaling when exerting force and inhaling in a resting state. This helps with effective muscle recruitment and kinetic linkage.

You can also use breathing as a feint.

I like how Tony tells us what he accomplished in a no nonsense way and without embellishments or telling us how great he is.

Unlike many others, he always tells us how important it is to protect the head and the consequences of not doing so.

If I was walking down a dark alley I would want Tony or someone like him with me.

I also think I would simply enjoy just talking to him.

Thanks Tony.

Ive been boxing for 14 years, not really competitively just spar with friends, and your footwork video helped me so much with my stamina. I never worked on footwork before because I thought mine was good enough. I been really doing footwork drills lately and surprisingly it has increased my cardio better than anything I dont know why. Must be my balance is better.

[KJ-vcsw]

Had a little boxing in college and learned just how much craft and hard work is involved. I've had a heavy bag in my garage for many years, and now that I'm seventy years old I find that it's excellent for cardio, stamina, and upper-body muscle tone, which is all the more important for me after having six-bypass open heart surgery three years ago. Watching this video I realize I'm doing some things wrong, but then I don't plan on getting in the ring or getting in too many street fights. Probably wouldn't work out too well. 😁

Started boxing in August changed my life!

[camelrug]

Not only are you class for sharing your experience for free but you are an excellent teacher 🙌🏼 my respect friend ✊🏽

[corneliajarphed]

I just started boxning on my own at my regular gym in Sweden! Borrowed glowes and just started punching the bag :D Just jumped straight out of comfort-zone where everyone could see me and the bag ! LOVES IT!

[hassankhalid]

Thank you so much Tony. This damn pandemic has locked me out of my local MMA gym for months. These videos are super useful for home training.

[af-]

this channel is a true gem, best youtube channel for boxing beginners or people who want to train with the boxing bag! thanks Tony!

[ianlobo]

Thanks for all this info Tony, its good to have someone as experienced as you teaching for free, im not lot confident about my technical abilities and this kind of tips coming from soemone like you prove that im not wrong at all, thanks for the work i appreciate it

[jackg]

So glad I've discovered your channel - you have great presentation skills and props to the editing, tight and clean.

[micktinsley]

Great stuff Tony I’m 47 and still boxing brilliant straight no nonsense advice, I hope all the viewers appreciate such guidance for free just wish I could go back 30 plus years and have the same coaching. Keep it up 👊🏻

[kiowhatta]

Great video Tony. As you would already know, the heavy bag is popular but can encourage bad habits. I wanted to add to the points you made - my old coach use to tell me: if the bag is swinging towards you and out (in a straight line) throw straight punches as the bag swings AWAY (great for footwork, timing), if the bag swings side to side, throw hooks and uppercuts, again, try to hit the bag as it swings away as it is very easy to simply punch the bag as it swings toward you, but is risking wrist damage over time.
Lastly, the biggest mistake I continue to make is to telegraph my punches with my eyes when going to the body, so I try to keep my eyes focused on the one spot on the bag.
Cheers from Oz.

I swear he has a camera up in my gym and is just making lists to make fun of me.
I throw bombs...and get tired within 30 sec.
I don't move my head.
I don't move my feet.
I drop my hands between punches (though been working on that).
I don't throw feints,
BUT I keep watching your videos and I do notice that I have become aware of my deficiencies.
Thinking about getting your video package. Looks like a really good deal right now.
Ex body builder here...and I have grown to hate cardio, but hitting a heavy bag is fun and seems to get my heart rate up a good bit.
Thanks for the motivation and making it simple for a complete amateur to understand what is going on.
