Not sure what you want to hear.. I mean you dont look good here. But you just need to keep training.

Also. I dont understand why the padholder try to make you many different types of attacks and different combinations. You need countless hours of super basic stuff. To learn footwork and balance between the shots you throw.

Like textbook basic shit. Like you see tyrone spong doing with Henry hooft. Or ilia topuria doing.

Make the basic look good first.

well it's at a fitness gym so basically improvisation. He doesn't train at the gym I'm at. Met up with him here. Yeah half the combos were missed but it's about the spirit, all work is good. There aren't even mats here to be proper barefoot. But more work = good. He also made a mistake like 3x cause I'm southpaw when asking for a straight. If I ever train with him here, we do some partner drills and sparring but I really dislike practicing fighting at a commercial fitness gym. He's pretty good though he does pro fights. Just wish he was at my gym. I'm not even at this fitness gym but they can bring someone on the weekend. Also only time we even did mitts ever. Yeah half the combos had a mistake and it didn't flow. Still a good exercise. More work is always good.

I understand the frustration. Working with a brand new padholder is never a smooth experience.

It takes time to build a bond together. So both get into a state of flow.

it's not frustrating. This was months ago. Like I said I might train with him once in a blue moon. I prefer to train at proper gyms with mats. Just saw this in my gallery and posted it. Just for fun. He is a good sparring partner though. Cause I know him long. So we an go hard and no-one will get offended and throw something crazy. However he is not at the gym I'm at. At the gym I'm at we don't even do pads, unless I was gonna connect with someone in the future and do pads. We keep doing a lot of the Dutch pads aka hitting the combos on our bodies, you know on the gloves and body. Not bad either but we do way too much of that. Like the trainer doesn't bother to bring in more diversity, it's basically 60% of the training class. Not bad but can be annoying. This month I'm in Herzegovina anyways. Might go a bit to my old boxing gym. Still recovering from a flue.

I like your kicks bruder but im not sure about your punches, they seem a bit slow. It looks like you are loading up on the punches. Es sieht so aus als on du ausholst vor dem Schlag. Aber der Rest sieht super aus. LG aus Bonn.

My comment came off kinda negative , it wasnt intended that way. Sorry bruder. Have you had an amateur fight?

You stand too tall and are off balance when you throw. You have no passive defenses in place when punching or kicking. You’re weaving way too low on those counter shots and telegraphing your kicks with your hands. You’re dropping your hands when you uppercut. Your check needs to be stronger. You’re falling into your cross. You’re loading your hook by dropping it rather than rotating your shoulders.

Nah it's fine. It's just a clip. I did load up on the punches there.

I did have 1 amy type of boxing match about 15 years ago and nothing else. I do spar over the years.

Mmm perhaps . This was quite a few months ago. I think I've gotten sharper. I also got mechanics in sparring that make it make sense. I don't read a lot into training clips. I do got my style.


Thanks for commenting

Nice! I only sparred in my time. I had like 20-30 fights working in nightclubs. Or just when drinking in nightclubs sometimes drinking and working at the same time

Lol I never get into bar fights I prefer not to. Haven't clubbed in a decade though. You're probably phisically big. Are you a bio German ? If I'm gonna fight it's gotta sport. Well self defense is logical but I don't go out thinking I gotta fight someone. I mean in clubs everyone is drunk so it's a high chance.

Yeah the ducks were really akward, I didn't realise he wanted me to duck. Our first and only mits session. I can land kicks well I don't tell much but that's sparring. I do it different on a bag / kitta than going with a person. I do drop my hands quite a bit I don't got a strick guard I got movements and use my eyes to see how to react. Here I am falling into my cross cause padwork it's kinda of a long distance. Hope one day to be able to record some actual sparring rounds. So it doesn't sound like I'm talking myself out of everything. Yeah I loaded the hook here. Well perhaps some time I can record some sparring but it's a bit unlikely. People don't really film that in the gym. I mean you can if you got a buddy and I'm usually more to myself. Train go home. I also train at a regular fitness gym. I'm not even there this month, I'm away. Maybe in the future. But yeah the session was the opposite of flowing and clean. All good though.

Free flow isn't working well for either of you. Pick a combination, have the pad holder position the mitts exactly the way you want them, then drill that one thing. Over and over and over.

Kicking punch mitts is... wrong. Use Thai shields or don't kick.

And of course... speed and power. All my previous comments apply.

Yeah I am good but the session was objectively bad. Bad it's still a win cause throw more strikes + skills up.

And do it in a kickboxing gym. I just like training with this guy. But it's akward to do it at a comercial fitness gym. At least that space there is seperated and empty. Still makes no sense. The guy comes with a big bag like it's a MMA gym. I mean some gloves and mits and boxing is fine. But not shin guards on that mattless floor.

And of course... speed and power.

Some shots were hard. I don't think one can throw speed and power for 1.5 hours. Just train more and it comes.

Have you done any movin lately ? Today was my first session in 18 days. I got a flue. Fever went away rested 3 more says than did do 5 hours of wood carrying and got post viral fatigue from it. First time ever having that I was just crushed. Tried training sunday and it was extremely lackluster. Today I did a session. Disapointing whenever I'm not at least at 80% . But need to man it up and do it. Today counts as a full sesssion. Perhaps takes me a week to be back at normal 100%. Figured tomorrow I'm training at my old boxing gym again. I'm most of this month back in Herzegovina. My best friend took over the gym so I'll train for free whatever it was just gonna be 25$ anyways. I'll take him out for Kebab after the training. The running will be mean. Boxing people is easy for me. Running is my weakness.

Im german but i grew up in a working class town in ireland. Yeah im tall but that didnt help me when they cracked bottles on my head. The bar fights just seemed to happen with my old friend group. Nowadays im a quiet dad type. But why dont you go out? I would definitiv go out again if i didnt have a kid. I loved drinking and chasing girls with my buddies, they all seem to be like 60% eastern Euro too.

You already know my feelings on the matter. Practice the way you want to perform.

I'm sailing again. So I am doing tons of push-ups and my kettlebell. And swimming. When I get to the Dominican I will be doing Muay Thai again.

Running is everyone's weakness. It's a necessary evil.

I don't like drinking anymore.
