When I first started sparring I was flinching every time someone throws a punch but I figured out if I stay relaxed it was so much easier to spar

I never realized how important breathing on defense was. Great advice! You always put out the best content JT!

I put a medicine ball on the floor. I get into a Pushup position above it with my stomach over the ball. I drop from this position and exhale. This helps me to simulate getting hit. It does not take long to learn to exhale.

This has solved a big mystery for me. My sparring fitness seems to not reflect my overall fitness at all. I get ridiculously out of breath after 1 or 2 rounds. So glad I watched this vid.

This is by far the best boxing channel on youtube, you answered all the questions i had, great work, keep it up !

Breathing is the most fundamental of ALL fundamentals and yet it gets so easily overlooked! I absolutely LOVE the way you demonstrated breathing on defense leading to easier offensive transitions. I'm definitely guilty of holding my breath while defending and that quick inhale can gas me even with good cardio. I wouldn't have even known how simple of a fix it is without this video!

When I look back a few years from now, I'm going to remember how much your videos helped me become the best boxer I can be! Thank you!!!

I'm learning english by hearing you ( I'm spanish). Also I'll sign up soon in a box club near my village. I'll have on my mind all your tips and your attitude. Thanks!

I've been kick boxing for 2 years now. I can run forever. Do intervals. But never realized why I gassed so quickly when sparring. Now that I've watched this video, I realize when ever I spar, and people close distance and start unloading shots, I do freeze up and hold my breath. This video was an eye opener and I really appreciate it. With regards to your gloves, I like the idea. I use a pair of 12oz title glove. I like how fluidly I can throw punches but hate how sore my knuckles get (especially on my right hand. The middle knuckle is usually swollen and in agony after bag work). Would be nice to have a lightweight glove with very good padding for the knuckles. I feel like i have more than enough wrist support with my handwraps.

this guys knows whats he's talking 'bout...keep it up!

Hey man, I want to thank you again because when I am having trouble explaining to students, I watch your videos for advice on how to help explain some concepts better! Once again I must say, this really is the best boxing channels on youtube!

I asked my parents to get me a heavy bag and stand for Christmas. I've been wanting one for a while, but have been putting it off due to other things. I figured I'd ask for it for Christmas that way I don't have to spend my money on it. It's coming in Wednesday. I'm excited, I've always loved the idea of boxing. I've done a lot of shadowboxing, as well as kickboxing in my home. It's helps a lot with stress. Not only that, but it is a wonderful workout. I really need to get back into shape. I haven't been eating that well, and I haven't been exercising as good as I used to. I feel like it's catching up to me.

[Tousanx]

I'm so glad I found your channel. I would hold my breath at times when it was my turn to hold the pads and I would gas out quicker than when I was punching. The way you explained proper breathing really helps. Thank you so much.

[ForestKTM]

I am beginner in boxing, and i trying to use all these advices. And it really helps me a lot! Thanks man!

[elixthirst]

Used a couple of these tactics in sparring last week and I was shocked at how big of a difference it made. Thank you so much for all of the extremely valuable information!!

[lifesabuzzwhoopwhoop]

bro thank you for this video, some coaches dont really go in to certain subjects properly, either that or in a way i dont fully understand, i move around a lot but love boxing too much to let my training slide. so i've trained in few gyms. this video helped me a lot in sparring.
it took a while after watching for me to comment only because i took what you said and tried it out first. Thanks for the help JT

[againstallodds]

wow! no wonder I'm so exhausted by round three. Thank you so much. You are awesome!
