explain to you why you should do it i'm going to show you how to do it i'm going to tell you
when to do this i'm also going to show you a few ways that you shouldn't be doing this

my name is tony jeffries olympic medalist boxer former undefeated professional
seven times national champion european champion welcome to my youtube channel
no matter whether you're just hitting heavy bags doing mitt work or even if you're sparring and
fighting punching and moving at the same time is very important if you're on the bag you
punch the bag it swings you've got to know how to move and punch or the bag's going to hit you
and when you're in the ring with someone sparring with someone if you think i'm here my opponent's
normally always out of range and for me to be able to hit him i've got to step into range and throw
the punches now you want your punches and your feet to move at the same time when you're moving
and punching because let's see if my opponent's there and i move then punch i've moved then punch
by the time i've moved into range i'm going to get punched in the face so you want to step and punch
at the same time and you want your foot and your punch to land at the exact same time as well now
that's with the left hand now if you think i threw that jab and i've stepped now if i want to throw
my two my cross i throw it i'm off balance here so i've got to step with my back foot to be able to
land this punch and to be on balance so it'll look like this so i'm stepping and punching the left
foot's landed left punch just landed same with the right side to land at the same time and when i'm
throwing the cross i like to turn my hip mid-air i know we get taught and it's correct to have
your feet planted on the ground turn your hip and kind of squish that bug with the back foot there
but when you're moving you can kind of do that in the air boom and punch there again so that's
moving forward when i'm moving backwards i'm going to move my back foot first followed by my front
foot so if i move them back foot first i want to throw my back hand first so i look like this
so you see back foot front foot back hand front hand and then moving forward
now this is the same if you're moving side to side so if i move to my left
move my left foot through my left hand followed by my right movement to my right
left so if you see right there i'm getting into a rhythm whatever foot lands the same hand lands
hey guys if you haven't seen already click my footwork drill here and check out my three
tips that i give you to be able to drill this stuff to get really good and then you can start
