Tony Jeffries shows how to do shadow boxing for beginners. Just about every boxer out there does shadowboxing. You can do it just about anywhere, including within the comfort of your own home. The reasons why they do it include the following.
#1 it’s a great extension to warm up the specific muscles you will use in that boxing session.
#2 it’s great for fighters visualizing an opponent.
#3 Great for working on bad habits such as putting your hands down when boxing.
#4 it’s a great workout.
Shadowboxing can seem really weird for the beginners since you are literally punching the air. Lots of people wonder whether shadow boxing is good for a workout or not. Others are curious about how to do shadowboxing and whether it can be done at home. For this reason, I have put together this video that clearly explains and demonstrates, how and why you should do shadowboxing.

My name is Tony Jeffries, Olympic medalist and undefeated professional boxer. I am now co-owner of Box 'N Burn, two boxing fitness gyms in Los Angeles, as well as the Box 'N Burn Academy where we train professional boxing trainers. This is why and how boxers shadowbox for boxing.
When you shadowbox, it is very important to concentrate on always having a good form. Keep your hands up high and throw punches realistically as if something is actually in front of your head. Focus on perfecting your boxing technique above everything else.
If you are a beginner, it could feel really awkward at first. However, the more you shadowbox, the easier it becomes. When shadowboxing always choose s few areas to work on such as your boxing stance, footwork, pinches, combinations and defense.
Through the video, I will demonstrate how you can shadowbox with a concentration on footwork and defense. I will also show you a punches and defense example.
Feint and attack concentration is another example of shadow boxing we will go over in this video. We will finish with a high intensity concentration example. This one will really get your heart pumping and prove to be a great workout.
As you shadowbox, start slow, get comfortable and then you can move on to high intensity shadowboxing. Practice makes perfect holds true to shadowboxing as well, so don’t quit because you couldn’t get your form right the first time.
Whether you are boxing for fighting or fitness, shadowboxing is a must-have training session. This is largely because it will surely turn you into a better boxer and helps you achieve your fitness goals.

@@waitssharpe7491 I think he's talking about using it on her
Lit name bro
Ayo?
Gold medalist and the mma guys have millions of views. This guy needs more recognition. Ty for the video I subscribed. Need some help. Cheers.
Thanks ma man, means alot
Trueeee
Bronze* medalist.
I noticed that in shadow boxing we tend to focus more on stance, foootwork and technique rather than power ..it helps you a lot than using a bag ..
Its great to work on any bad habits that you might have mate and its good for warm up as well. Check this out mate for more tips on how to shadow box : kzhead.info/sun/kraOgsmOf19oi6c/bejne.html You can check all my videos here: kzhead.infovideos
True indeed. I've noticed this too. When I use a heavy bag I tend to focus on the power of my punches but while shadowing I focus more on footwork, defense and technique 🗿💪
It's amazing how you immediately start sweating! Great vid!
You related to Ryan???
Dude shadow boxing is tiring as fuck
@@aadarsh_1303x fr, but it felt so good after doing it

Mr Tony, you’re my new official boxing coach from today till forever
I love you for this! You really motivated me to try this on my own. Looking at a few coaches now
Thank you, Tony, for bringing it to my attention. It is another excellent video. Great work.
PERFECT PRACTICE makes perfect! I love that! Thank you. 🔥
I recently stopped smoking weed and for the first time ever at almost age 30 started taking workouts serious. In between reps I started shadow boxing for some reason, it just came natural. I don't know much about boxing, but I do it in a way that feels healthy for muscles and joints and feels realistic, like turning in your leg for balance and stuff. It just came to my mind, that there's probably youtube tutorials on how to properly shadow box, so I can implement it into my workout routine fully. Cheers for the tips and your great attitude lad! :)
Glad my video was helpful mate - You may want to check my ultimate boxing tutorial mate: kzhead.info/sun/d5x9n9mDnIGhmYE/bejne.html

Another excellent video. Concise, no nonsense and to the point.
I'm quite young and I'm a very new to boxing started about a week ago and I have to say, love your videos and so far they've made me more confident and less anxious about training boxing. Keep up the amazing work and thank you for all those videos!

This should be taught in every school. So many people out there don't know how to throw hands. Not only is it good physically but also mentally.

thanks man
Thanks 🙏
The best !!!
I’m here to burn calories and get negative emotions out in a healthy way. This really helps
Everything is fast I am rewatching every move so that I could perfect it, I am doing boxing secretly from my family's, and get ready for the future when needed
Tony it is great Thx🙏
Thanks mate! - You can check all my videos here: kzhead.infovideos
Firstly i binge watch these video’s thank you for sharing your expertise Tony, quick question (won’t be the last one, sorry) whenever i shadow box or “simulate” at home i try and be realistic about what volume id actually throw and try and work on angles and i tend to do more feints and defensive moves and not just pretend id throw hundred unanswered and undefended punches, but my combo usually ends up just being jab, jab, straight and then a hook variations and then backing off and ive never been able to break out of that rhythm, any tips? And how to not just basically turn my back, in the gym while doing technical sparring (like only working the body) i seemed to be okay at engaging and disengaging but if im at home and asking someone to help me train i end up hiding away from shots and getting swarmed whilst moving backwards till i hit a surface, is this fine as in a real competetion no one would just come running toward me swinging wildly or is it just anxiety because its a personal person to me? Any help would be great thank you
Try and use the pivot technique wuth your feet really helps you to get out of situations and set you up for the offence
@@user-uy1jl1ig3m brilliant advice i do tend to try and pivot a lot in training so thats useful advice cheers
fucking love you man straight to the point and very informative thank youuu!!
Thanks for the comment Cozy, got video requests or questions mate?
Should you clench & relax your hand as you would when hitting a bag, sparring etc? Thanks
Brother Tony I need much understanding about the 3-3,5 and 6 combinations, which hand to be used
Please make a video on Mike Tyson Heavy bag workouts
Love Newcastle !!
Can we send you shadow boxing videos to critique 😬
I've been shadow boxing for years now and i honestly think im one of the most impressive shadow boxers you'll ever see. And i taught myself 100% everything is from scratch of my own style
Bro would be cool if I could see you shadow boxing
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Yayy I'm doing it right
Excellent coach
Thanks mate! - You can check all my videos here: kzhead.infovideos
I want to start mua thai. I aint got enough place at home..for the start i will take some advice from a boxer. I am fat as fuck around my belly so at least i can lose some weight with/by shadowboxing. Many many thanx for posting up this video
The for the tips 🍺👍🏿
Joe Calzaghe told me, when he couldn't spar, shadowboxing was the next most important thing he could do I preparation to fight Jeff Lacy. Visualisation, balance, footwork and handspeed
also a treatment for rage virus, scream as you punch. has to be secreted.
It does help if you have a vr headset that has the game thrill of the fight
nice video
his footwork is impressive ngl
Nice
Your getting a subscribe for this
🔥
Thx, for the Video....what about Joe stand right wir feets!
Gonna be preparing for college, in case someone bullies me and I need to let them know their place
teach me how to have fast hands like you
Excellent breathing technique, who needs sound effects when you can make your own plus it’s the right way to do it
Yes mate :) Cheers
Im here from Italy for your accent my mate, not for your content. But... Your content is great.
You are just incredible Sir. Thank you so much for such informative lessons. My humble request for some exclusive lessons on Defence and also different uppercuts. Love from 🇮🇳
"Defence" is kind of broad U have any specific things that you wanna work on?
@@Greenbiscuit1 how should I cover up what type of defense am I supposed to do when somebody does a jab
@@scoobymacwall there are so many variations, i dont know english that well so i cant say, but if you know russian i can explain to you
@@ultratoxic1 It’s fine I’ll use a translater
After watching Baki I have to learn how to do this perfectly
💪🏾
Amazing video!
honestly the reason I came here is to know how to do this correctly when I am exited
Is a mirror necessary or unnecessary for a novice? Unless it’s always done in front of a mirror. I’m new obviously haha
