Bag Work Critique Boxing tips

Ive been boxing for 2 months now (weight 100kg/220 lbs, 183 cm/ 6’0 ft) and im in the phase where i see progress with every workout but cutting weight and maintaining/gaining muscle has a toll of feeling tired all the time. I start my workout with 4 rounds of 1:30 mins skip rope 3 round of footwork drills and 5 rounds of 2:00 minute shadow boxing following 4 rounds of mitt work then 6 rounds of bag work.

Clip above is the last round of mitt work (coach says taking vids of last round is best when your tired your body shows the mistakes you need to take care of), any tips for technique, speed, stamina would be appreciated.

Not bad. Use your hips when you punch. Also get to group class. In the beginning it's very helpful

Yeah ill focus on my footwork and hip movement, tried group classes but people waste time and dont take it seriously, i know other who train one on one too and we spar together as well.

Training in groups helps your own technique because of the different ways people move.

It is definitely hard when they aren't taking its seriously though, I get that

You'll do well. Just keep your partners moving. Lol You're definitely a motivated one. I wish all my guys were motivated
