Black Boxx Boxing, Boulder, CO Videos

If everything always works in training, take more risks. Hit the SparBar harder and actually position yourself in range. Try boxing with your hands down and see why your coach keeps yelling to keep them up 🤣. When you get smacked, make the appropriate adjustment! Variation will make you less predictable and more versatile. #blackboxxboxing #frontrangeboxingacademy #boxing #boxer #sparbar #risk #adjustment #colorado #thathurtabit

They're called "medicine balls" because they make you feel better. I'm certain of it! See y'all at @frontrangeboxing for 5:30pm conditioning every Wednesday 💪🏿🥊 #blackboxxboxing #frontrangeboxingacademy #boxing #boxer #medicineball #medicine #gym #boulder #colorado #sweat

Lesson from the ladt conditioning class: Don't do it because you think it looks cool. Do it because it works. For "cool" stuff to work, you MUST have a sound grasp of the fundamentals. I promise you... nothing in boxing looks cool if it doesn't work. 🥊Come get one of these live rants at @frontrangeboxing 🤣🥊 Wednesday 5:30pm - Conditioning (this vid) Thursday 5:30pm - The Sweet Science Lab Saturday 11:00am - Boxing Flow #blackboxxboxing #frontrangeboxingacademy #boxing #fundamentals #levels #becauseitworks #sweetscience #conditioning #colorado #boulder #boxer #

The average adult noggin weighs about 11lbs. It doesn't take much effort to get a response out of 11lbs with a proper punch. No one is in the ring with their neck clenched the whole match waiting for an uppercut. And if they are, it won't do any good 🤷🏿‍♂️. We don't need to dig uppercuts from the dirt. It's already the most exposed punch and hardest to land out of the entire arsenal. Be quick, deliberate and sharp. I promised the class we'd start going over uppercuts... so Saturday's Boxing Flow at 11am and Thursday's Sweet Science Lab at 5:30pm will be addressing just that for the next couple weeks #blackboxxboxing #frontrangeboxingacademy #boxingflow #sweetsciencelab #box #boxing #boxer #boulder #colorado

Range control. You need it. It doesn't matter if you're the taller or shorter boxer if you don't understand how to manage distance. Tag drills are a great way to gain a better understanding of how to manage range in the ring. Come to @frontrangeboxing and join The Sweet Science Lab every Monday at 5:30pm to get this education 🥊👨🏿‍🔬🥊 #blackboxxboxing #frontrangeboxingacademy #thesweetsciencelab #thesweetscience #boxing #boxer #scientist #madscientist #tag #drills #boulder #colorado #distancecontrol #rangemanagement #skills

Boxing basics: Rear leg weight bias. It doesn't matter if you're orthodox or southpaw. Yes... there are front foot fighters... but that's a whole different style and many coaches don't consider it fundamentally sounds (that's a conversation for another day). Rear leg bias, as I demonstrate in the video, allows the full range of boxing movements and promotes maximum efficiency with those movements. #blackboxxboxing #frontrangeboxingacademy #boxing #boxer #box #trainer #coach #colorado #stance #fundamentals #basics #boxingbasics

A solid stance is vital in boxing. But that doesn't mean just plant your feet and go... you've gotta move. If your feet are too wide in your stance, you're too slow. Too narrow and you lose your base. You want a good balance of mobility and stability! 🥊🥊 #blackboxxboxing #boxing #frontrangeboxingacademy #boxer #box #colorado #boulder #red #theflash #titleboxing #stance #mobility #stability

FUNDAMENTAL REFRESH ep 1. So you've started boxing and want to reinforce sound fundamental movement. Here's a quick vid to help you out! If you're a southpaw, the only difference is the lead/rear foot placement. The driver and placer concept doesn't change 🥊. Stay tuned for the next episode of Fundamental Refresh #blackboxxboxing #frontrangeboxingacademy #boxing #box #boxer #fundamentals #footwork #donatello #sweetscience #pugilist

Aaah the uppercut. Most folks want to scoop up every ounce of power from the ground after rocking the punch way back to really get that rock em sock em effect. Well... it doesn't really work that way. It's the only punch that leaves you completely exposed until it's done. Every other punch at least puts your chin behind your shoulder when thrown properly. So we want the uppercut to be deliberate and to the point. Come learn more in The Sweet Science Lab every Monday at 5:30pm only at @frontrangeboxing #blackboxxboxing #frontrangeboxingacademy #box #boxing #boxer #trainer #coach #uppercut #sweetsciencelab #sweetscience #colorado #boulder

Aaah the pull counter cross... some of you may call it the Mayweather Counter. It's not as easy as many think. Manipulating the space around you and the person in front of you at just the right time to land takes top notch skills. Jason picked up the little adjustments lickety split! Personal boxing training isn't just for beginners to learn fundamentals. It is one of the best ways to level up your skills. It's customized specifically for you and you don't have to share your coach or bag for the whole hour! Lucky for you, all you have to do is go to the @frontrangeboxing website to book a session with me ( @johnny_165 )or the genius who first introduced me to the sweet science, @dave.gaudette.16 #blackboxxboxing #frontrangeboxingacademy #pullcounter #mayweather #skills #train #personaltraining #box #boxer #boxing #colorado #boulder

Lesson! I've said this many times... but I'll say it again. Offense and defense are the same thing from the ground up. The only difference is intent. Did you intend to throw a punch or avoid one? Guess what! You can do both at the same time! *in this vid, Austin only had the jab and I had everything. Rounds like this are to get fighters comfortable with landing the jab and controlling their opponent with it. Knowing that he only has the jab, I'm willing to take different risks that wouldn't be worth the "reward" if he had both hands available. The point of this video is to show simultaneous offense and defense. This can be applied to any combination of punches and defensive movements. Come to @frontrangeboxing and get this education. My classes are every Wednesday at 5:30 and Saturdays at 11am. And we put it all together Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7pm for sparring. You can even learn from the brilliant mind that first showed me the ropes, @dave.gaudette.16 #boxing #blackboxxboxing #frontrangeboxingacademy #boxer #trainer #coach #pugilist #skills #offense #defense #samesame #colorado #boulder #slip #punch #counter #jab #riskreward #lesson #sweetscience

I've worked with lots of wrestlers that have trouble committing to a punch... especially the jab. First... you have to accept hitting the person in front of you and that they are gonna hit you. Then, be deliberate with your punch. If you're shooting for a takedown (Wrestling was during basketball season. I didn't do that mess 🤣🤣🏀) you don't half-ass it. You explode for it. Same thing with punches. Shoot that thang out there. That hesitation or timidity will get you caught far more than it'll keep you safe. Commit. #blackboxxboxing #frontrangeboxingacademy #boxing #box #boxer #wrestling #wrestler #commit #jab #spar #fight #train #sweat #colorado #boulder

Don't be one-sided!
Move left AND right with the jab (and every other punch). This is base of moving with combinations. A former 2 time WBO world champ, Adrian Mora, once told me "Fighters look like monsters moving in one direction. Make him move the other way and he'll be average"... ok, so I paraphrased a bit... but he was right. This really applies to many sports. Don't get caught up moving one way because it feels comfortable. Get comfortable moving in every direction and watch yourself elevate 👊🏿🥊🥊 #blackboxxboxing #frontrangeboxingacademy #box #boxing #boxer #wbo #wbc #knowledge #wisdom #pugilist #boulder #colorado #lessonoftheday #versatile #blackpanther #hyabusat3

There will be times that you're living your best life and all of a sudden everything seems to go wrong. You look around and feel like everything is just an overwhelming mess. You know you have some work to do, but where do you even start? Right here and right now. One piece at a time. But think about the great time you had leading up to this point. Sure... there's a mess to clean up... but damn it was fun making it! You've got plenty more in you. And even if you didn't make that mess on your own, you can gain strength from the rebuild 💪🏿💪🏿 *Same bag several months, 3 rolls of tape, punches, chomps and baseball bat swings later... 😤💪🏿💪🏿 #mentalhealthmonday #blackboxxboxing #blackboxx #box #boxing #strength #pibblesofinstagram #teddythereddy #rebuild #repair #continue #punch #fight #everlast #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthawareness #homeworkout #corporateclass #stressrelief #keepon

Tuesday Training Tip! Practice fluid combos. Don't worry about speed or power. Be smooth. The smoother the punches, the harder it is to tell what's coming. That makes it way easier to sneak in say... a liver shot. Take your time and go slow. Add speed as you get better. Again, focus on fluidity. It'll make you faster and hit harder. #blackboxxboxing #smooth #fluid #fast #tuesdaytrainingtips #tuesday #frontrangeboxingacademy #boulder #box #boxing #boxer #trainer #colorado
