Hello and welcome to Boxing Bodyweight Workouts.

The first thing I need to tell you is that this is not a typical boxing manual, this is a boxing resource to help you run boxing sessions as part of your fitness business. It is based very much on "old school" boxing for fitness, using a pad holder or bag, plus a combination of power and speed boxing as well abdominal workouts and circuits.

The vast majority of this Ebook is based on my personal experience growing up in a large boxing family and spending a lot of time training in Irish boxing clubs, as well as designing workouts for my very popular Boxing sessions within my Fitness Business.

This Ebook will supply you with both written and video demonstrations to help develop correct boxing techniques and an easy to understand step by step guide to the basics of boxing to ensure you run a safe but challenging "old school" boxing workout that your team will love.

Below is a brief description of what you'll find within this Boxing Ebook:

Boxing Technique: demonstrations of different types of punches / pad holding / boxing stance etc.

Combination Boxing: 20 different boxing combinations focussing on power punching via 3 minute rounds.

Speed Boxing: 15 pure cardio boxing workouts based over 2 or 3 minutes to take that heart rate up.

Boxing Circuits: 15 challenging boxing circuits that incorporate other exercises like running and push ups etc.

Boxing Abs: 20 different boxing abdominal workouts

Mix & Match System: Using our proven mix & match system you can chop and change from the 70 workouts available in this Ebook giving you unlimited different 1 hour sesions.

This is the second Ebook in the Bodyweight Workout collection designed by myself (Sean McCrory) and as I mentioned above it is based on my own boxing experiences from the age of 13.

Boxing is a sport I'm very passionate about and out of the 15 training sessions I run per week within my own fitness business is the one I love the most. My advice to you is if you haven't already attended a boxing course for Personal Trainers then do so as there is so much you can learn.

Finally thank you for purchasing this Ebook if you have any feedback or questions please email me at [email protected]

The Most Important Piece of Information in This Ebook

Don't Skip Over This!!!

Foot Pivoting / Hip Rotation

I can not stress enough the importance of pivoting your feet and rotating your hips when throwing punches. It is the very first first rule I teach my new boxers when they join my boxing fitness group,

especially those with any lower back issues. There is a lot of stress caused to the body when throwing a punch and the chances of injury (if done with poor form) is great, learning the correct techinque will

reduce this significanlty. Ensuring good foot rotation is the best place to start.

Pivoting the feet and rotating the hips when throwing a punch has 3 main benefits:

Maximise Power Maximise Reach

Less Stress on Your Back & Reduces the Chance of Injury

Below are video demonstrations of feet/hip movement during each punch

Did you know that over 90% of punches thrown by Muhammad Ali were jabs, the purpose of the jab is to give a "short, sharp strike" to the face of your opponent followed up with a knock out punch. It's considered the most important punch in a boxers arsenal as it allows you to control your opponent from an attacking or defending position as well as taking the least amount of energy to throw.

Important Steps:

1. Start in the basic boxing stance position (correct stance and gloves protecting the face)

2. Throw the jab punch by extending your arm out while rotating your wrist to ensure that whenyou connect with the pads your knuckles are facing upwards

3. When landing a jab punch ensure you hit with the first two knuckles (index & middle fingers)

4. Return the arm in the same line as you first extended it, finishing back in the position of protecting theface

Things to Remember:

1. Ensure that the shoulder protects your jaw when extending that arm while jabbing.

2. Don't drop your other glove, keep it placed on your face/jaw at all times when throwing the jab

3. Do not shift your weight to the front nor back foot, keep your body weight even and centred

4. Ensure that both knees are slightly bent at all times

Jab Punch

Page 8: Rebel Fitness ebook Boxing - cover€¦ · Boxing is a sport I'm very passionate about and out of the 15 training sessions I run per week within my own fitness business is the one

W O R K O U T S

The cross punch is also known as "the knockout punch" or in professional boxing circles "a straight." It's a power punch thrown by your rear dominant hand from the boxing stance position. It's the second most used punch (behind the jab) and when used correctly can be very effective.

Important Steps:

1. Start in the basic boxing stance position (correct stance and gloves protecting face)

2. Throw the cross punch from the chin by extending the arm forward, rotating the arm plusthe wrist and hit the target with your first two knuckles

3. The power of the cross is distributed from your rear foot to your lead foot. You do this bypivoting your rear foot, rotating your body, bending your knees and leaning forward very slightly. All of this is done at the exact same time as the cross is thrown to ensure maxium power

4. When rotating your body it moves in a clockwise postition for southpaws and anti clockwisefor orthodox Things

to Remember:

Cross Punch

1. Fully extend your arm when throwing the punch to gain full power

2. Don't drop your other glove, keep it placed on your face/jaw at all times when throwing the cross

3. Do not completly lift your rear foot off the ground

4. After the punch is throw return your arm/glove back to your face to protect your chin

W O R K O U T SHook Punch

The hook is another power punch that is primarily a head shot, it involves the boxer rotating the body on both sides depending on whether the punch is being thrown from the lead glove or the rear one. Without a doubt it is by far the best looking punch you will throw and it makes the sweetest sound when you connect with the focus pad correctly.

Important Steps:

1. Start in the basic boxing stance position (correct stance and gloves protecting face)

2. For maxium power during the hook punch ensure your arm is bent at an 90 degree angle, any more orless of an angle and it will decrease your punching power

3. Pivoting your feet and rotating your body is key is to throwing a great hook, if you are throwing a front hookthen you pivot your front foot and roatate your body in the same direction as the arm swing. When throwing a rear hook you will pivot your back foot and once again roate the body in the same direction as the arm swing to ensure maxium power

4. You have 2 choices in regards to the positioning of your gloves when throwing and landing a hook punch

Position 1 is known as the European Hook and that involves your thumb pointing towards you during the swinging of your arm Position 2 is known as the American Hook and that involves your thumb facing upwards during the swing

Things to Remember

1. In regards to throwing an American or European style hook do whatever you feel comfortable

2. Ensure you pivot when throwing the hook as it will increase punching power and put less stress on yourback

3. After the punch is thrown return your arm/glove back to your face to protect your chin.

Uppercut Punch

The Uppercut technique is exactly as its name implies, the punch starts at the boxers waist and moves in an upward motion until connecting with the opponents chin. Uppercuts are most effective and cause most damage when thrown at close range. Just like a hook you can throw a front and rear uppercut punch.

Important Steps:

1. Start in the basic boxing position (correct stance and gloves protecting face)

2. Bend your legs and slightly dip your shoulders to the same side you are throwing the uppercut. This iswhere your explosive power will come from

3. Slightly pivot your lower body and torso when throwing the uppercut punch

4. Pivot with the same side leg you are throwing the uppercut with, open up your hips by slightly pivotingyour leg. Keep the elbows tucked into the rib cage and throw the punch from waist height

Things to Remember:

1. Do not over extend on the punch or throw wildly, the motion should start fromyour waist

2. Don't drop your other glove, keep it placed on your face/jaw at all times whenthrowing the cross

3. Do not completly lift your rear foot off the ground

Pad HoldingJab/Cross Position: Begin by holding the pads at face level, turned slightly inward and about shoulder lenght apart from one another. Your elbows should remain against your body as you’re catching most punches. Do not hold the pads too close to your face (or risk copping one on the nose) nor hold the pads too far apart (or risk popping a shoulder).

Hook Position: It is important to remember that the Hook is a head punch which means the pads need to be held at the boxers shoulder to head level to ensure correct punching techinque.

Upper Cut Position: When holding the pads for Upper Cuts position the pads at the boxers chin level.

Resistance: You should provide resistance for your partner as their punches connect with your pads. Don’t allow your partner to knock your hands back with each punch. As each punch lands, push forward lightly. Don’t slap down onto the boxers gloves. Slapping down onto your partner’s gloves too hard could potentially hurt the boxers hands and wrists.

You're in Control: You are in control as the holder. Ensure you know exactly what combinations are coming so you can prepare for it. You and your partner should be assigned numbers /punches and/or combinations so that the holder can be prepared and the puncher can land the appropriate blows.

Keep Moving Around: Boxing for fitness involves moving around and not standing still, lets face it you never see professional boxers stand in the one spot. Pad Holders remember what I said above you are in control, where ever you move to the boxer must follow.

Boxing Wraps

I always get asked the question do I need hand wraps and why?

The answer is very simple: Yes to protect your hands. Hand wraps help protect the bones and tendons in your hands. In addition, they will help support your wrist and thumb.

To help prevent injuries, always wrap your hands before undertaking any type of boxing activity, be it focus pads or bag sessions. The more you box the better you become, the better your techinque improves and as a result the harder you punch. Solid punching increases the potential for injuries so protecting your hand is very important to help minimise that risk.

Click below and watch my video of How to wrap your hand and remember to give a lot of support and protection to your wrist, thumb and knuckles.

Combination Boxing

When I conduct my 1 hour Boxing sessions I include at least 3 x 3minute rounds of combination Boxing circuits

Combination punches focus on power and proper techinque.

Its great for giving your boxers a feel for or an idea of what its like to throw proper combination punches for a full round of boxing.

This involves no speed work just 4, 5 or 6 power punching combinations.

I have 20 different punching combinations for you in this section.

All 20 are video demonstrated

Simply run your curser over the combination and click

Combination boxing requires a pad holder (or punching bag) when boxing with a pad holder ensure the holder moves around after the combination has been

thrown. No standing still.

Speed Boxing

As well as combination punches I also like to include at least 3 circuits of speed boxing or as I call it cardio boxing in my 1 hour sessions.

Workouts that will really get the heart rate pumping and leave the arms feeling like lead afterwards.

Cardio boxing rounds can be 2 or 3 minutes depending on the intensity of the circuit.

You will find a lot of boxers tend to lose good form during a cardio boxing workout, your role is to ensure they keep good form at all times as they start

to tire.

In this section you'll find 15 speed circuits that involve standing in the one spot and working with a pad holder or punching bag.

An important point to remember within the 15 Speed Circuits each punch thrown equals 1 rep. For example 2 Jab/Cross = 1 Jab & 1 Cross.

Boxing Circuits

Circuits are an excellent way to bring more variety into your boxing sessions.

Circuits are different because they include more than just boxing, for example it could well include some core work, push ups and running etc.

One area I DO NOT use within my boxing sessions is kicking, this is a completly different skill set and the potential for injury is great. I focus on "Old School" boxing for fitness.

Some equipment is needed for the circuits in this section (cones or mats).
