6 Common Boxing Mistakes of Beginners

In This video I will show you the 6 common boxing mistakes that beginners do when they are boxing Do not miss number 6 because it is the most common and by correcting these mistakes you will improve your boxing The first common mistake I see is dropping your non-punching hand Always keep your non-punching hand at by your face no matter what punch you are throwing Common mistake number two is keeping your chin too high Your chin should be down because if you keep it too high there is a greater chance for you to be hit hard Common mistake number three is not turning your hips to transfer your weight through the punches I often see people throwing arm punches For maximum power in your punches you have to turn your hip especially on that cross and the hook as you transfer your weight from the front foot to the back foot So keep practising to turn your hips Common mistake number four is crossing your feet when moving backwards and forward side to side When you move to the right move your right foot first and same with moving to the left forward and back Often I will see people stepping to the right with their left foot instead of the right foot Avoid this mistake because it will cause you to get off balance and you won't be able to throw any punches Common mistake number five is moving flat-footed moving around heel-toe heel-toe When you are moving back and forth you need to be on your toes because that way you can throw punches and defend yourself no matter where you are Common mistake number six the biggest mistake I see beginners and even people who have been boxing for a long time do is breathing When it comes to boxing or throwing punches it is very common for people to hold their breath Holding your breast while punching will waste too much of your energy and you will not have speed or power in your punches because you are too tight and too tense For maximum speed and power you have to relax and exhale with every punch More boxing videos 10 Punch Boxing Combo Advanced on the Heavy Bag l Boxing Combos For Beginners a https 3A 2F 2Fyoutu be 2F0qecdwj6VAY a How I Perfected the Jab to Win an Olympic Medal in Boxing a https 3A 2F 2Fyoutu be 2FwnzBnwBPcU4 a How to Throw a Lead Hook 4 Variations of Lead Hook a https 3A 2F 2Fyoutu be 2Fi3G3HsI1GGU a 4 Tips to Punch HARDER How to Punch Harder a https 3A 2F 2Fyoutu be 2FqzRxO3sU og a If you enjoyed this video please subscribe to this youtube channel for more videos like this and for any questions or comments below I will answer Thank you for watching My name is Tony Jeffries Olympic Bronze medallist now co-owner of Box 'N Burn 2 boxing fitness gyms in Los Angeles as well as the Box 'N Burn Academy this is our education program where we teach trainers how to teach boxers Link below If you want more in-depth videos from me to make you a better boxer - check out this a https 3A 2F 2Fwww masterboxing com 2F a Follow me on Social a https 3A 2F 2Fwww instagram com 2Ftony jeffries 2F a a https 3A 2F 2Fwww facebook com 2Folympian tony a a https 3A 2F 2Fwww twitter com 2Ftony jeffries a a https 3A 2F 2Fwww boxnburnacademy com a Boxing certification course a https 3A 2F 2Fwww boxnburn com a GYM a https 3A 2F 2Fwww tonyjeffries com a Personal Site boxing boxingmistakes
