    What I look for from a jab is that it's fired straight from under your chin kinda looked like you pawed it out there some. Just watch that it's a bad habit to get into and you need a good jab (everyone does). But don't worry too much a good trainer will fix that **** in a lesson and just make you practice it right from then out.

      you need to work on your fundamentals more. like properly pivoting, keeping your elbows in, keeping a more narrow frame, rotating from your hips, to your core, to your shoulder.

        dont know if we were watching the same vid but i dont think i could purposely throw arm punches even if i wanted to. i always pivot and below to produce the power upstairs. the only way to produce significant power is to start from below. as far as keeping elbows in the couldnt be more in unless im trying to turtle and completely block a flurry. thanks again for the imput.

              You're throwing them punches to soft; start slow and after a minute go faster; it looks good; good luck!

                hm you seem better than most people who post shadow boxing videos but lets be honest, they got no technique and just act like RJJ. You seem to have a nice head defence and better technique but if I was sparring you, i'd go particuly for your body as you look quite vunerble to the body, and your punches are quite slow, I dunno did you do it slow on purpose to improve your technique? if not then your gonna get blocked/parried all night. take care.

                  yeah i didnt really go full speed 100%. theres bursts of speed but never really went all out. it was really just for movement/technique purposes. just to get the feel of it and go through the motions. probably 3:20-3:27 was around 80% ish for that particular combos speed but it also differs because i dont have my 16oz gloves on hah. im usually pretty good at keeping my elbows in for body shots and i twist or turtle when ive had people go down the middleto the gut. my it just looks as though my flaring my eblows but they are relaxed with a little bit of me pressing them against my ribs without being tense about it. if youve been in the gym for a while im sure youd have your way with me lol but im sure id be able to pay you back 1 for every 5+ you land on me hah! im still keeping my options open and trying to get to a gym for some real supervised training and sparring. ive only had the opportunity to spar with friends a few times that train muay thai and boxing at gyms around here. thanks for comment.
