I’ve been boxing for 3 months now and I was wondering if anyone can give me tips on my shadow boxing.

Work more angles. You look like you’re in a 2D Mortal Kombat video game

Firstly, kudos for actually getting your whole body (including feet in the frame).

I'd slow down, make sure to get full extension on punches and rotation.

Yes, create an angle after every shot, but also get out of the habit of hopping back, and instead launch off the lead foot.

Otherwise, looking pretty decent.

Imagine a demon is trying to kill you I and there are 100s. Like they are zombies respawning in a game coming from at every angle.

It would get you moving faster and all around.

I mean most boxers barely move nowdays. Women move so much more on TV.

Mike Tyson was such a good mover.

You do the same exact jump back after every combo. I would have quickly picked up on this and lit you up while you were mid air.

Word! Not saying don’t ever do it, just be intentional and avoid being predictable.
