This is one of my boxers after 5 hours coaching ... Not mayweather but lots of correct technique which I'm pleased with [ame]http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KrkpKG3lGLo[/ame]
Nice brown! Honestly technique looks good and performing it slowly is even better for him. Great work, keep it up!
looks like great padwork Jeff and he looks great for only 5 sessions. Looks like you are good coach mate :good
Thanks pal I try my best I think the coaching the fundamentals is just the earl aspect of coaching. I'm a qualified pt so I know how to periodise program's but to be a great coach you need something else, other qualities. You need to see things differently to the also rans and that's where I think I can excel I'm starting to understand the sport on a very subtle level thanks largely to my dealings with one of the best coaches I've ever met in my life- Howard Rainey. He changed the way I think about everything, and also my own coach Kevin Maree he's brilliant. Totally underrated.
That is impressive .I could be going with a few 121's man but there's no one near me that does them .Then maybe I could fight .3 yrs on and off in a gym roughly .No chance i'm fighting this season .Everything is almost there I say a few of them and a few rounds of sparring .You need to go to my gym for about 6 months non stop though before you get signed up .The training and quality is just not there for me man ( guaranteed sparring and good results etc )It's mostly young boys that go to the boxing ( 6.30 7.30 gents fitness ) ( 7.30 9.00 boxing but mostly boys about 14 ) I want to go to thailand for 1 month you can get them 121's etc and quality sparring . http://www.tigermuaythai.com/training/muay-thai/fight-muay-thai-in-thailand.html
I've trained for boxing mate for 3 yrs but I still haven't fought . I would like to do 1 month in Thailand to learn muaythai though .I could probably learn more in that space of time about thai than i've learnt about boxing over the yrs because they train every day .
I'm not sure about that... Good progress is made by drip feeding and practice - most coaches I've seen and to be fair I'm talking about the bottom end of coaches try and teach too much too soon. !!! If I was coaching someone every day for a month I've no doubts they'd improve but I like to focus on a max of three things per session - so 3 things per week
Wish i had more guys like BB where I trained at.... its depressing at the lack of quality coaching in the sport you enjoy.
Just curious where are you training? Also did you call your son Rocky?? If so how did you get your bird (wife?) to agree to that. Really good technique from that lad he seemed to have your mindset aswell and not trying to hit too hard/fast and focussing on his technique. I find that in a few gyms I've been in that you have to be there for a certain amount of time before they really focus on your skills. It's as if once you've proven your gonna stick with it then they really try and teach you how to box. Before that you get guidance but once you can hit the bag they leave you to your own with a bit of guidance but not much. One of my mates wanted me to show him a few things so I took him on the pads a bunch of times, doing assignment sparring (more for fun than seriously training). Anyway took him to a boxing gym and he had better technique than some of the guys who'd been there for a while. Considering he'd been trained by a very very low level amateur in me thats not good. Also how much do you charge for 121 training?
