All right, what's going on, contenders!
Today I've got an excellent video to help develop your footwork.
But really it's actually to develop your punching power and stamina.
One of the most important aspects of developing power in boxing
is to have level hips, so that your hips, when they rotate, when you punch,
are in line with the axis of rotation.
When you're rotating your shoulders, your hips are working that way.
You don't want your hips going down or up,
while your axis is going straight across, like this.
They're not really in perfect alignment.
And one of the reasons why your hips often get out of alignment,
is not because of anything you're doing with your hips,
but because your legs are weak.
Your legs don't have the stamina to stay in position.
So a lot of boxers, especially young boxers, they rise up.
Or they lean forward, or they get their hips out from under them,
they puts their hips back and they're sort of, leaning forward.
So this drill is gonna fix that.
And if you stay honest with this drill,
do it 3 or 4 times a week for about a month,
you're gonna find, that your hips
and everything will sit nicely right over top of your legs much more easily,
and you'll be able to develop way more power in your punches.
And not just power in a single shot, but continuous power throughout the rounds,
'cause you'll always be in position.
So we're gonna go forward and backward in little mini-sets,
forward three times, back three times, we're gonna hold,
we're gonna switch to the southpaw.
You're really gonna feel this in your lower body.
But it's gonna give you great effect down the road.
So get ready, get into your stance,
I want you to do this drill with me and try it.
All right, contenders,

All right, time!
Stand up, relax.
Rest, kick your legs out.
Very nice work, you've completed all three sets.
All right, nice work, you guys!
Now, it wasn't easy.
Especially to hold that in the later sets.
Second and third set you're gonna feel intensity to want to rise.
And this is what's happening in your boxing.
You want to rise, you want to lean forward
on one of the legs that has more stamina or lean back.
You want to screw your hips out from underneath you.
And this happens over the rounds in the boxing,
you lose power in your shots.
So work this drill, try to...
You can do it almost every day, I'd say for 3 to 4 weeks to get the base.
And then after that just once in a while to maintain it.
Or just make sure that once you lock this in,
that in your boxing you're maintaining it,
that you're working that position and holding it all the way through.
So you don't cheat yourself in your shadowboxing and in your bag work.
I got to give a special shoutout to BOXRAW
for providing the t-shirt and the shorts in this video.
The camera really doesn't do it justice how good this stuff is.
Like, these shorts have a nice zipper down the side, I like that.
For whatever... deep pockets.
Thick waist band here that I like.
Really thick, high-quality.
This stuff is good, even the t-shirt has this sort of a spring,
it's sort of that cotton with a little bit of an elastic in it,
and not sort of a cheap stuff where you feel stuck in.
So BOXRAW,
I've been working partner with them for a while,
you know where the link is down below.
Really high-quality stuff,
that even the camera doesn't really do it justice.
You gotta get it and see it in person.
So make sure to check them out!
All right contenders, work this drill.
Let me know what you think about it now,
but also come back in a few weeks, and let me know how it's working for you.
Are you seeing the results,
are you seeing better stamina,
are you seeing better power in your shots,
are you having more power endurance?
So power as the rounds go on,
because it's easy to have power for the first minute of the first round,
but to be able to generate power round after round,
a lot of that comes from the stamina.
And this drill is gonna give it to you.
All right, thank for watching, you guys.
Peace!
