kenny i think your rope is just alittle long, its touching the ground stopping you from going faster and smoother.
Saddly I have no videos of me boxing. I don't take a camera with me when I'm training in the gym, nor do I have anyone thats going to sit and film me (I move from gym to gym quiet a bit, because of school and money). I have had some of my fights filmed, but they are all on videotape and are all normally taped over for someone else once I'm done reviewing it. As for my level, I currently as of 4 months ago, just became a certifed boxing coach, I'd never gone Professional only due to school. But I have had over 160 fights counting both unofficial (mostly unoffical lol) and official fights, that meaning sanctioned fights by USA Boxing and non-sanctioned. Again the only videocamera I have is at home and I have no way of getting it until december. So maybe around then I can get some footage.
Does jumping rope like that serve any special purpose? Other than just looking badass i mean lol... I'm not trying to take anything away from how good it is, just wondering if jumping normally is just as effective.
Haha, I guess you can say some of the moves are flashy but they do server a purpose. Some are used to help improve the difficulty of the jumprope workout, for example; the double unders, crosses, running in place, doing stuff 1 legged. Most of the side to side stuff and things that look flashy, do help to increase hand speed and hand cordination. The thing that makes jumping rope so identical to boxing, is the fact that in both your hands and legs must think for themselfs and work together by doing different complicated things.
I'm perhaps a more erratic jumper but I always fancied my speed was good. Just not very smooth. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-pIV0YeGjM
Nice video man, you good nice speed. But yeah, it does look a little erratic. But good none the less.
Awesome skipping but in all fairness im strongly doubting he is on par boxing wise with his skipping.. 160 fights.official/non official but no FOOTAGE?? Very strange...
So he should Convert them to Mpeg, upload to youtube so that he can show off to everyone on the internet how cool he is? I didnt know that was a perequisite for experienced fighters! I think they just love watching themselves, Dont YOU?
Seriously, I know what my skill is and I know how many fights I've had and how many hundreds of hours I've spent boxing, I have no need to prove anything to anyone. There are many professional fighters who you won't find any videos of fighting on the internet. Acctually most pros pop out of nowhere. And like I said I've had most my fights videotaped, but for training purposes only. Once I was done reviewing the tape, it was retaped over for other fighters and so on. I'm not going to go through the trouble of taking a videotape and having it converted to a CD then convert it to a file I can upload to youtube, so I can prove to a couple people on the internet of what I can do.
