.....get funny looks when they shadow box in front of a mirror holding weights in a non boxing gym? some of the looks you get are hilarious
those aren't funny looks... those are "poor guys gonna ruin his shoulders shadowboxing with those wights" looks...
I never visit non boxing gyms so I wouldn't know. I shadowbox when doing roadwork though and people do look funny sometimes.
When that happens I start hissing at 180 decibels and swing like a ****ed up mad man, it generally works when people are annoyingly staring at me like I'm supposed to be Rocky on LSD. They IMMEDIATELY look the other way.
I work at a fitness gym, and sometimes I do shadow boxing behind the counter, yea, people think Im crazy... I dont hiss or anything or do it with weights though. Otherwise I always shadow box at the boxing gym or at home in the privacy of my own shower.
I dont look at anyone so dont know. Wouldnt shadow in non boxing gym, would expect the funny looks you mentioned :yep Though people do beep the horns when out running, mates, people i know etc....................i presume :rofl
I have done this before. I dont know why as I never have the urge to do it otherwise but something about the shower makes me want to do it. I have hit the door on accident making a loud bang and my parents wondering WTF is going on askeding me am I ok.
do your own thing man. when you're being watched focus on better technique and not what they're thinking about you
I know how you feel im usually doing it in the shower or the bathroom mirror. One day I got up early as crap like 5 am to take a **** the sun was out but my eyes where closed for whatever reason I started throwing combos just to wake up alittle so I could see and I punched a nice chunk off the door frame. My mom comes in at 6 from work and notices everything including this although its my bathroom comes into my room like WHAT THE **** HAPPENED IN HERE LAST NIGHT ? im back asleep by that time groggy as hell now shes like ANSWER ME GOD DAMNIT. Since then ive tried to cut back on my shadow boxing :yep
i shadowed in a non boxing gym once i got a audience from these bewildered people that obviously thought i was on lsd and fighting away monsters it annoyed me as i like to get on with my own thing without audiences
