Shadow Boxing - More than just a warm-up

Shadow boxing is often looked at as just a warm-up before the formation of boxing itself. As it should be! Shadow boxing no doubt serves to warm and prepare the body for the training program.

Above all, shadow boxing helps you groove the skills you learned.

It 'best before a shadow box mirror where you can master the skill you taught. I often say ... Mirror does not lie. Once you know what to look for, it is impossiblebad technique in front of the mirror!

If you're really in what you do while shadow boxing, the progression of more attention. Your coach does not bark to keep his hands to hold or dispose of that right hook while working the bags. He is very happy to see, do your rapid progression for your commitment of solid technique when shadow boxing.

great fighters will tell you ... that, imagine if shadow box and move real-life situations that are perhapsthe ring. Can you imagine an opponent in front of them. From combo offensive, defensive tactics, everything is covered.

Look for a body language expert fighter and eyes during this operation. It shows I'm in another world. In fact, they are a world in which they see some moderation. You wonder why these fighters get so good? Because she sees herself first.

Think about that next time shadow box.

Shadow Fighting The Martial Way Artists

There are many ways to shade your practical work. When I refer to work shadow I do not just shadow boxing. There are many stages of the shadow work and practice.
These are

Punching - Where only a few traits are used alone and in combination

Defense - Where only a few blocks, slides, swings and the texture is used.

Boxing - punching and defense combined.

Kicking - Where only kicks are used, including low kicks to the thigh andsweeps.

Kick Boxing - All of the above.

Thai Boxing - All the above plus knee, elbow and stop shots.

Melee - Staying in one meter of a wall and through which strikes are possible, without turning their backs to the wall (mainly just knees and elbows, even if the hooks, struts and strikes next are possible, depending on distance). Shadow of Defense should not be forgotten.

MMA - mostly overgrown, more simulated throws and take write-downs (alsoRolls and ground fighting drills can be included)

Karate - Where strikes and street-oriented defense are used. Elbows, knees, low blows, kicks low.

How can I practice a variety of shadow education, especially for martial artists. There are probably more, and I welcome your comments. Their best for about 60-80% of the job shadow with a speed that is not the fastest, so do not be sloppy. When practicing, keep an eye guardthe correct sequence of movements (rotating even at bars, etc.) and pace yourself. You may also occasionally work at full speed. For a good workout doing any kind of fight shade for 2-3 minutes, 30 seconds of rest between each, and try to work at every stage, at least twice!
