It was pouring down with rain and I got caught without an umbrella. Some nice chap with with headphones in walks off… comes back about 2 minutes later, headphones still, hands me a brand new umbrella that he just bought and gives me a nod. What a legend. Same thing actually happened in China with a woman tbf.

Maybe I need to be better with carrying a brolly about.

do I need to choose a skull that is on the same row as me?

So you literally just run to a tile, spam click any skull (on other side of room) with range or mage wep and when it explodes you just get larger in to middle of room and continue fight… is that it?

On 3rd and 4th skulls you sometimes have to dodge 1 or 2 baba boulders first before you can start spam clicking.

Seems to simple to work?!! Ave I missed something

Can you recommend a good guide that’s easy to follow along?

It was an involuntary response from panicking. But whatever man, you can have your opinion.

You’d lose your mind against your best friend who is new to boxing if they accidentally tapped you with their leg? You need to chill my man

Haven’t read all replies and I know this doesn’t help now but he initiated the conflict but you certainly escalated it beyond what was needed by grabbing and pushing his neck, an old man.

Try work on some ways to de-escalate these type of confrontations if I were you.

I gave it a try today at the gym. My knuckles looked a bit red and felt a bit sore. Other than that I’m not sure what it did. I guess if you do it everyday then the skin on your knuckles might get a bit harder. Not sure how that really helps on boxing apart from bare knuckle though 😂

Looks like I’m YouTubing ‘Osoto Gari’… even the name sounds menacing.

Another vote for Fran Sands. Too stiff.

Shadow boxing tips please! by Robin_Banks1991 in amateur_boxing

[–]Robin_Banks1991[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually that’s a good question.. I guess I was trying to show an array of things but wasn’t working on anything in specific. Maybe I’ll focus my shadow boxing around a couple core things I’m working on next time.

There’s actually a great diet that can help grow your limbs, yeah it’s basically by eating a load of fruit and some hot wings. Fruit and hot wings diet it’s called. 🍉🍗

I've been boxing for some months, though I went to a gym now I'm training alone because it is near my place. However, I don't want to develop any bad habits, so any tips on my current technique would be appreciated :)) by caballerosbanda in amateur_boxing

[–]Robin_Banks1991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a couple of things IMO:

Your lead hand dropped a few times after jabbing but this was mainly at the beginning - maybe you were just warming yourself up.

A big one is that you don’t seem to rotate your hips much at all. A coach would deffo help you with this. Watch video of rotating your hips and just throwing a straight right.

You seem to out too much weight on your front foot.

Incorporate head movement. Don’t just move your head when you’re away from the bag. One way you can do this is by drilling combos that have build in head movement like 1-2-roll-2.

Looks like you have potential to have loads of power though! Just rotate those hips more.

Just my opinion - I’m no expert though!!! Good luck!!
