Boxing Training With a DVD - 5 Things to Look for When Choosing a Boxing Workout DVD This article has 5 things to look for when choosing an authentic fitness boxing workout DVD. Walk into your local sports and you will find hundreds of sets of boxing gloves, punch mitts (a.k.a focus pads), and punching bags. However, there are hardly any authentic DVDs to show you how to use this equipment, let alone give you a good workout. Most of the DVDs available are aerobics style. In other words, they are done to a music beat, shadow boxing, without any boxing equipment. Think Jane Fonda, with a few air punches and kicks thrown in. Now this may be exactly what you are looking for - an aerobics DVD, without punching a boxing bag or punch mitts. But what happens if you want an authentic workout where you actually punch the pads/mitts with a partner at home. Or perhaps you want to train with a punching bag in your garage. You need a DVD that guides you through all this. Before buying, heres a checklist to consider. Look for a DVD that shows you how to use actual boxing equipment. Authentic fitness boxing training is not box-aerobics. You want to learn to use your boxing equipment right? For example, if its punch mitts youve got (a.k.a focus pads), you need to learn how to hold them, how to punch them and what combos to use. Many people do not know how to hold punch mitts. When I teach and accredit Personal Trainers in how to deliver authentic mitt work for their clients, the first thing I do is correct their holding positions for the jab, cross, uppercut, hook and then the combos. If they hold them too wide their boxer /client punches too wide, resulting in poor results and an unsafe workout for both partners. Look for a DVD that is taught by someone with a background in authentic fitness boxing. The problem with many kickboxing, boxing or martial arts DVDs is they are taught by Personal Trainers or Fitness Instructors without a background in the sport. Selecting the right DVD is just like selecting the right martial arts or boxing class. Find someone with experience, friendliness and someone who can explain things clearly and simply. When I say experience, I mean someone who has already given actual results to others. Look for a DVD that understands the dangers involved in a Kick Boxing and Boxing Workouts. Boxing & kickboxing, even for fitness, are impact sports, with a lot of power generated into the mitt or bag. Also, anyone who has taught a fitness boxing workout to a large group knows it can be a handful, with different size partners, beginners etc. Its even more difficult when taught via a DVD or MP3 because the Trainer is not actually present. Proper mitt and pad holding technique needs to be explained to the viewer before the workout kicks off. Look for a DVD that shows you authentic combinations. Too many boxing DVDs are just Jab Jab Jab Jab...you get the idea. But if youre going to really get fit you need some combinations (or combos). Why? Because the more punches you throw, the fitter you will get. Endless straight punches gets boring - its combos that bring your workouts alive. For example, Double Left Jab, Right, Left Hook, Right (L,L,R,LH,R) is a great 5 punch combo, that real boxers use. Combos or are a test of skill, speed and fitness. Look for a DVD you can grow into. Most people can manage a L,R (Left Jab, Right Cross) combination into the punch mitts, However a L,R,LU,R,LH,R combo is not so simple. Its important the dvd you select starts with the basics then adds on more advanced punches and combinations that you can grow into. If it goes too fast, you can always pause or slow-mo the DVD.
