Since watching GV I've incorporated all sorts of stuff into my training routine, , , , love this dude hope we get to see him around for years to come

[omarbudeiri]

Great work and explanation. Way to go coach.

[James-mdhs]

Thank you for this. I have to do my first kickboxing class this week. Now I have a plan. Thank you.

[whoknows]

Gabriel don't want to criticize you, but at 2:41 in my opinion the front food should land on the ball of the foot and not on the heel, when stepping forward.
My former box trainer taught me so...

[byrusmx]

This is the kind of videos I was expecting for. Thanks, champ!

[bakersmileyface]

Thanks man. My coach says I'm really good at footwork and I do feel a certain affinity to it, like I can feel the range, tempo and can read my opponents really well. But understanding and doing are totally different things.

I see openings that I can't get to in time or I manage to slip past my opponents attack, but lose balance. Sometimes when simply stepping back, my foot doesn't land properly and I hurt my ankle. Other times I've closed distance to land a combo, but I didn't have that springiness to get out fast enough even if I wanted to and I turn into a punch bag.

I definitely feel a disconnect with what I know I should be able to do and what I can actually do and this has absolutely helped me in the past week I've been trying it. While I'm a lot slower since trying this out, and my coach thinks I'm not even using my footwork lol, I'm making less mistakes and my defence is a lot more solid too.

I'll be shadow boxing this more at home to try and work on gaining speed and throwing combos. Hopefully my ankes will be okay hahaha

Nice video Champ! Also, you in brighter outfits totally pop out from that doorway, in a way it actually frames you nicely. Thank you so much! I bought that Hayabusa Cobra Bag because of you as well haha.

[HouassiOussama]

Thanks a lot for the content coach, it's very helpful!

[paul]

I’m starting to do stuff like this for cardio. It’s so much more fun than jogging which I really hate

[craigkerklaan]

You freaking rock mate well done your content is a proper next level inspiration to me, thank you

[heart]

Love you so much Gabriel ❤️ hope you're well and sound forever

[lesliekistanministry]

Thank you, my family and I watch all your videos. You will get more subscriptions! Keep up the good work.

[Bigjonmetal]

I've been watching your videos for a few months and I had a mind blowing moment the other day as I finished my last session and was talking to my coach Rob, I realized that you train at the same gym as me?%! Victoria Martial Arts!

[lucasgrey]

I can't believe this is free. Thanks!
