Hey everybody, I'm sure you guys get bombarded with new boxer questions all the time, so feel free to ignore.
I'm 24 with absolutely no athletic background in my past, and I've started boxing recreationally. I'm still a few months away from being able to afford one on one coaching, so I'm taking group classes twice a week. I feel so awkward, like I'm both sloppy and way too tense in my shots, not to mention uncoordinated.
I'm not looking to be the world's best boxer, I just want to comfortable out there.
Until I can afford one on one, what are some things that worked for those of you who weren't "naturals" either? I've committed myself to waking up earlier and throwing 100 punch combinations every morning (20 of one type in a row, then a one minute break) in slower motion to make sure my technique is both correct and more relaxed. Any other ideas?
