Me shadowboxing

[BG_Knocc_Out]

Quality may suck because it's off a webcam, plus I don't think there is any sound. I just uploaded it to so the quality may suck even more. Give me some constructive criticism. I don't use my entire body enough with my movements, especially when I lean forward for inside/body shots, it's as if I only use my upper body instead of balancing out with my lower along with it. I don't think I keep my elbows tucked in enough for the most part, I also don't use my left shoulder all to much either, which I need to work on along with a few other bad habits.

I need some feed you *******s.

there isnt really any point in working evasion during shadows other than slipping into or after a combination.

you wont be able to accurately practice a shoulder roll without pads or punches

you'll hit harder if your feet are shoulder width apart. your feet are much wider

when you point out all your mistakes how do you expect people to criticize you?

ummmmmm not that i really know much but id say when your ending your left hooks try to aim more for eye level then chest or neck if you want to hit lower just dip down lower but still try to end around eye level. you do a good job of keeping your chin tucked under your shoulder but i would throw more of my left shoulder in to the hooks and jabs.

as far as body shots you seem to be bending over instead of dipping down. try a little less bending at the waist and more in the knees.

Never heard anyone saying working evasion is a bad thing. Matter of fact it's been recommended. Practicing movement and combinations, why not add it in. But thanks for the help.

Because there may be more mistakes than that and people may know so some methods or routines to correct them? Yeah, I noticed I was bending at the waist a lot in this video, and I think I was just conscious about being in an enclosed area and worrying about how much space I'm taking up before I smack into something, haha.

not like through the whole video just when you lean to the inside. maybe your putting to much weight on your front foot and cant quite throw well which is why your using more of your upper body when you lean to the inside.

i see no problem with the slight crouch through out the video.

I'm not gonna comment on everything cos it looked decent overall, but one thing I noticed is that you often bring your lead foot close to your back foot when you bounce backwards. It's a bad habit and although you probably think you'll be out of range so it doesn't matter, it does. When you bounce back, keep your feet the same distance apart to maintain balance. I used to make the same mistake but I eventually corrected it since my coach kept reminding me.

[bernardotelo]

this isn't muay thai close ur arms a little bit

[Double Jab]

Just for arguements sake, you seem tightly wound. Do you think you could do that for more than a few rounds straight?

Good call, didn't notice that until now. That's the sort of feedback I wanted. What happens if my opponent decides to pressure/pursue me when I move back? You're exactly right.

When I'm in shape, yes, ha.

I used to train out of any MMA gym actually, that's where I picked that habit up, ha.

Yeah, I notice when I lean forward for an inside it's either hit or miss for me. I either bend the legs real well and limit the bending forward of my upper body, or I do the complete opposite. I haven't really been in the gym consistently in about a year now, I just go in every once in awhile when I can.
