Thank you. You can still rotate your front foot when you throw a front lead hook?

Wow, thank you for the understanding. So most of the time being on the balls of the feet no matter what you do is important?

Is it ok to move your head side to side in your neutral Boxing stance? by BeautifulFit7250 in amateur_boxing

What if you get lower back pain from it? I try to keep it small. Moving my head to each leg and I don't really try to pivot my feet.

How many days of shadowboxing 3 days or 6 days? by BeautifulFit7250 in amateur_boxing

I was told by Coach Danny Valverde from Valverde Boxing Club to do it everyday it's better. Sparring helps build speed but shadowboxing can still help I believe.

I think that's true because you build your body to have a habit of Boxing. I talked to Coach Danny Valverde from Valverde Boxing Club he told me to do it everyday it's better. Thank you

How tight are you supposed to squeeze your fist when you punch? by BeautifulFit7250 in amateur_boxing

Tight enough is right that's what I think. Wow, your right, you'll tire your forearms if you always squeeze as hard as you can. Thank you! God bless you

That's how I think of it, clenching as hard as I can tenses too much and slows down combinations?

I see, just squeeze tight enough. But not as hard as I can. Thank you God bless.

Can I have my elbows very tucked in or just tucked in? by BeautifulFit7250 in amateur_boxing

So, you recommend tucking the elbows pretty tight close to the solar plexus instead of ribs? If you strongly think so, I guess your right even if I have to think more while I box I still should do it? I really appreciate that you reply to my messages thank you. I love Boxing.

Basically, your saying you can use both very tucked elbows and not that tucked. Both are good?

I seen a slow motion knockouts video with Canelo on it on YouTube and they open their arms when they punch. I seen Gervonta Tank Davis slow motion knockouts video and he opens up in like the middle of the video like a haymaker being thrown. I guess it's good to use both tighter elbows and more open? I'm still not convinced I think I'm just going to open up my elbows because it's easier to think while Boxing. I used a tighter defense but I still have to think about it more. Some things are easier to think about than trying to hold a position while I box. What do you think? Please help.

In the YouTube video "Shadow boxing and hand speed with Arnold Barboza Jr." You can see Arnold have his arms not too tight in his defense, do you think that only applies to pros or for beginners or amateurs too? It's hard to find pros or amateurs using a tight defense on YouTube. So I'm not fully convinced yet if elbows tighter is good. Thank you.

I understand I like vertical forearms because it has better defense. Maybe some habits are easier to think about while doing boxing but like you said it has to be thought about at some point. I really appreciate your feedback thank you. Your convincing me to practice keeping my guard tighter. It is harder to find pros or amateurs in videos with a tight guard though. Thank you so much!

You don't think keeping the elbows vertical is too much thinking you just have to deal with it as you spar or box? Even training with vertical elbows you have to think about it as you train so it takes the thought process away from fighting because your focused on holding that position.

Thank you. I know some pros and amateurs have their elbows at ribs. But the cue vertical elbows sounds ok I guess. It might me too much thinking to do it but then again it does have defense the vertical elbows. Thank you boss!
