Learn How To Master Switching and Shifting Your Feet in Boxing

Learn How To Master Switching and Shifting Your Feet in Boxing. Tom Yankello of the  @World Class Boxing Channel  presents a pad work drill that teaches you how to shift and switch off a slip. You will learn two different slip switches and two different switches. Once you master this pad work drill you should then incorporate it with the other padwork drills that Tom has on his channel and turn it into a flow drill. Before you go there, though, you want to master this drill first. This drill starts off with a one two hook, then trainer throws a right hand that he slips. From there he turns his waist as he slips the right hand. From there he will shift to his left while he switches and makes his right foot his predominant foot which puts him in the southpaw position and puts you in a closer distance to your opponent. This puts him in position to land a right hook to the opponent’s head. After he throws the right hook, trainer throws the jab, then he switches the other way to throw a left hook, right hand, left hook. For pad purposes you turn to find the fighter to catch his punches. This is a great footwork drill that will enhance the coordination between your hands and feet. Tom wants you to extend your punches so you drive through your target. To help the boxer extend his punches, you sometimes need to take a step back to ensure he gets full extension. Tom then adds a hook to the body, hook to the head, then slip, and pivot out. Then hook to the body, hook to the head, then weave. These were two additional padwork videos that Tom has done in the past and shows you how to incorporate all three drills together after you master the first part of this drill. At the end of the video, Tom gives a way to work the pads and discusses the position of the paddles and why it’s more important that the boxer and trainer know what you are working on. 0:00 Introduction 0:55 Extending Your Punches 1:39 Watch the shift and switch 4:08 Padholder Positioning 5:13 Orthodox to Southpaw to Orthodox 6:33 Working the Drill 7:25 Danny’s a National Level boxer 8:13 Mix it up! 9:30 Throw Real Shots!
