That's a good idea for training continued movement. It'd certainly help me since I have the habit of slipping and pivoting only once and then I end setting up camp for some reason, only for my opponent to unload on my sorry ass.
:yep I feel you man. I have a bad tendency to make one slip or one pivot and get caught when a combo is thrown. This came help me a lot as long as I do it right
I've used this for like 3 sessions now and I feel a difference I can't wait to see in sparring how much affect it has
I used to pairs of hand wraps and tied them up to the beams in my basement or put them on a cabinet (with something on top of them to hold them down)
We used to do it single line until a coach from London visited us and did the exact same thing. Extremely good excercise, harder than it looks especially for 3 rounds
Its ok but ive seen better, the rope ladder beats this hands down, this guy is hung up all over the place his movement wouldnt get him out of the way of a smart flurry, no chance. just look at how some movements he can do a lot faster than others, they should all be the same speed but because of how hes fighting his mobility is screwed and he will always drill the movements he can do well and neglect the ones he cant do, thus he wont figure out how to correct. Rope ladder is one of scraps drills and it'll teach you a lot about yourself as a fighter, teaches you that you need to take your feet with you when your doing this type of movements infront of a fighter, shots come quick, if he could make your 1-2 miss then theres somthing very wrong with your 1-2, so a brief pause inbetween movements means your hit, timing has a lot to do with what you can get away with but still you cant run out of places to go by getting in holes like this drill allows, your there to be exposed. the ladder drill would expose it, you wouldnt be able to work it fluently until youve worked out major kinks in mobility, you basically use it like 2 slip lines together, use the steps inbetween the rope ladder to guage level changing so they dont swing for you through the middle, throw shots, 1-2's under to the right, 1-2 under to the left, try under to the left and back slightly, to the right and forward slightly, throw combos finishing with uppercuts, hooks, body shots, always moving after, if you can be countered after the last punch of the combo's there is somthing going wrong, its slowing down your mobility, the punch is there to be exposed, its a very neat little system, if your not working it fluent then it tells you theres a problem, isolate it and solve it before moving on, it gets very technical here, all sorts of problems pop up with fighters, movements, shots they throw during or on the end of a combo restricting directions alltogether or just effecting speed of some directions, they get on the ladder and suddenly they see and feel things they can and cant do as quick as other things, give it a go and see what you think. in order to master the ladder you will basically correct your boxing stance/steps and shots, everything. until balance and control is achieved.

That requires some complicated equipment which ok to use from time to time, the other one is easy to setup every lesson
It requres a rope ladder lol, or simply 2 ropes tied next to each other, its as easy to setup as this drill.
