When I first started sparring I was flinching every time someone throws a punch but I figured out if I stay relaxed it was so much easier to spar

best boxing channel ever

I put a medicine ball on the floor. I get into a Pushup position above it with my stomach over the ball. I drop from this position and exhale. This helps me to simulate getting hit. It does not take long to learn to exhale.

that's a good idea

This has solved a big mystery for me. My sparring fitness seems to not reflect my overall fitness at all. I get ridiculously out of breath after 1 or 2 rounds. So glad I watched this vid.

I never realized how important breathing on defense was. Great advice! You always put out the best content JT!

+brad harris haha i hear what you are saying. thank you!. putting "beginner" often gets me more views so its more of a youtube tactic

This is by far the best boxing channel on youtube, you answered all the questions i had, great work, keep it up !

I'm learning english by hearing you ( I'm spanish). Also I'll sign up soon in a box club near my village. I'll have on my mind all your tips and your attitude. Thanks!

Breathing is the most fundamental of ALL fundamentals and yet it gets so easily overlooked! I absolutely LOVE the way you demonstrated breathing on defense leading to easier offensive transitions. I'm definitely guilty of holding my breath while defending and that quick inhale can gas me even with good cardio. I wouldn't have even known how simple of a fix it is without this video!

+Trey Dunn thx Trey!

I've been kick boxing for 2 years now. I can run forever. Do intervals. But never realized why I gassed so quickly when sparring. Now that I've watched this video, I realize when ever I spar, and people close distance and start unloading shots, I do freeze up and hold my breath. This video was an eye opener and I really appreciate it. With regards to your gloves, I like the idea. I use a pair of 12oz title glove. I like how fluidly I can throw punches but hate how sore my knuckles get (especially on my right hand. The middle knuckle is usually swollen and in agony after bag work). Would be nice to have a lightweight glove with very good padding for the knuckles. I feel like i have more than enough wrist support with my handwraps.

Try the ringside apex training gloves, padding is great and the wrist support is the best in the business! not too expensive either, i got a pair on amazon for 30 dollars!

When I look back a few years from now, I'm going to remember how much your videos helped me become the best boxer I can be! Thank you!!!

Hey man, I want to thank you again because when I am having trouble explaining to students, I watch your videos for advice on how to help explain some concepts better! Once again I must say, this really is the best boxing channels on youtube!

The make like a sandbag defense is somthing im going to remember

I'm so glad I found your channel. I would hold my breath at times when it was my turn to hold the pads and I would gas out quicker than when I was punching. The way you explained proper breathing really helps. Thank you so much.

bro thank you for this video, some coaches dont really go in to certain subjects properly, either that or in a way i dont fully understand, i move around a lot but love boxing too much to let my training slide. so i've trained in few gyms. this video helped me a lot in sparring. it took a while after watching for me to comment only because i took what you said and tried it out first. Thanks for the help JT

i've watched alot of boxing video's on youtube. fights, training tutorials etc. your channel is awesome.

JT, great guidance - as always. Thanks.

I am beginner in boxing, and i trying to use all these advices. And it really helps me a lot! Thanks man!

Thanks so much for this video, JT, very helpful! Just started "sparring" with my trainer and often struggle to catch my breath. Will definitely be practing the breathing drills from now on and looking forward to how it will improve my sparring! I'm a big fan and subscriber of precision boxing, thanks for the great instruction!

thanks JT! excellent topic for a video and super helpful! cheers

Nice vid man ive got a bunch of questions in my head about breathing and you helped answer a couple of them thanks for the time you spend making these videos.

Thank you. It's a little detail but breathing is so important.

I appreciate all your videos!!!! I'm boxing on the fort benning team ...and I watch all your videos on top of what my coach tells me

I asked my parents to get me a heavy bag and stand for Christmas. I've been wanting one for a while, but have been putting it off due to other things. I figured I'd ask for it for Christmas that way I don't have to spend my money on it. It's coming in Wednesday. I'm excited, I've always loved the idea of boxing. I've done a lot of shadowboxing, as well as kickboxing in my home. It's helps a lot with stress. Not only that, but it is a wonderful workout. I really need to get back into shape. I haven't been eating that well, and I haven't been exercising as good as I used to. I feel like it's catching up to me.

JT, Thank you! I did not think about it. But it is very important moment! You are rock!

Thanks man, this helped me improve my boxing a lot

I love all ur "beginner videos" like I love watching boxing. And since I've been watching ur videos a lot! Then I started looking for boxing gyms, and I found one I like and I've been doing it for 2 weeks now. Like if I wasn't watching ur video I wouldn't of knew what to do and not mistaken on stuff like my motions and stuff. thanks keep doing good videos like u been!

wow! no wonder I'm so exhausted by round three. Thank you so much. You are awesome!

Thank you JT

thank you for the video brother! I also like the sacrifice video too.

Excellent.

This is very helpful.

Best boxing education channel

hey JT I wanna thank you for all these great video's you've done for us. I've been in and out of the gym since I was six and there's so many things I've done wrong I'm pretty decent and can hold my own against anyone but your video's help me so much I'm 20 now and I've just got back into the boxing gym about 4 weeks ago now and I've been trying to soak up all the info I can from you there so much I've forgotten and im a little rusty but your really helping me so thanks from the UK!!!

Very good! I'm Brazilian, autodidact in boxe and English. I'm learning a lot here in your Chanel. Excellent didactic! Sorry for any errors on my written.

excellent video. man

Thank you for these tips Sir. I appreciate what you give me through your videos. Your videos have improved me a lot and I love you. Thank you Sir!

Thank you!

very good thanks

Thanks for being a good teacher. Wish I could meet you.

Love your channel man, its awesome :)

Just started boxing about 4 days ago, this video has helped me bunches, thanks a lot for the knowledge

Great tutorials! Great technical insight, but also inspirational! I'm glad I discovered this sport and your channel. As for the feedback you asked for (more than one year ago...), I'm just a beginner, but I can say that, you're right, punching the bag does hurt the knuckles (so, special gloves for that it's a good idea) and the price range you're thinking about, it's in the market. All the best!

Thanks again sir.

You are the bomb bro. Great teacher

That is exactly my problem but I didn't know that. Thank you!

great vidz jt there appreciated.

Thanks for another great boxing video JT! Best of luck with your glove design. I am looking for durability in a glove. The seams on the inner palm always start ripping and along the Velcro cuff. Good Padding over the knuckles is a must also. Hit it hard!

This explains why my counterpunching i s to slow after a combo has been thrown at me.... Gonna try it out thank you so much

Learned. excellent

that glove concept is gold man... especially since its custom to fit ur needs... if anything im a beginner but i like having a lot of wrist support for those heavy hits

You really have to say this for me to know what I'm missing.Thanks a lot!

JT im a huge supporter of your work, humble and dedicated. a true reflection of boxings principals. A quick opinion on the design, I personally have no time for gloves in which the bulk of weight is condensed into the knuckles. Reyes have the perfect shape to adapt from, they enforce the illusion of being able to punch through concrete. Another issue i find with gloves is the flexibility, I have worn mauy thai gloves for a while as they open up easier to hook the defense hand. i like that.

Thank you. first time I sparred I was exhausted. I like the UFC brand gloves in 10 oz. & MMA style; they feel great and have good wrist support.

NEVER a useless video!!! Always in tip top A-Grade condition. Awesome advice even for experienced boxers. Keep up the good work. Kudos from Greece!

Every now and then I come back to some of these earlier videos that focus on beginners, even though I've been boxing for a few years now, just to remind myself of the fundamentals. It's easy to forget and pick up bad habits which often equals bad results in sparring.

Awh hell yea, JT is a boxing prophet

hey man nice glove concept i like it

you're the best JT

It would be nice to see another audiotape of yours in which you shout numbers and the listener is responding with defensive movements, or you could make a video in which you use the tapes that you already made, but instead of hitting when numbers are shouted, the listener responds to those combinaitions with defensive movements that you would explain. Thanks for the knowledge that you share with us, J. !
