Boxing Footwork Drill - Pivot for Attack and Defence

Versatility is absolutely critical in boxing, and in this boxing footwork drill video I provide you with the most versatility of boxing skills - the pivot.

In fact, this boxing footwork drill demonstrates absolutely how versatile the pivot is by using it in both offensive and defensive situations.

So the boxing footwork drill itself breaks down into 3 sections - each of these sections can form a round.

As with any boxing footwork drills that involve some level of complexity, this is about joining boxing skills together, or overlapping those boxing skills, to form a complete passage.

It is very important therefore that each of the boxing skills is performed to the very highest of standards.

Any errors in the execution of a single boxing skill, allowing any faults to creep in, will result in the next skill being negatively impacted.

So, make sure that you slow things right down.

Round 1
Movement forward and backwards incorporating the pivot

Round 2
Jab then movement forwards and backwards followed by the pivot

Round 3
Jab then movement forwards and backwards followed by the pivot with a shot.

Execute slowly and deliberately. Get it right and this will bring good benefits into your wider boxing training; your shadow boxing, your heavy bag work and of course your sparring and fights.

Alongside the boxing footwork drill I answer a couple of questions that have been posed in the comments sections of my YouTube channel or my blog.

1. In respect of boxing footwork, why should my lead foot be at an angle rather than pointing towards my opponent.
2. Boxing and self-defence, how it might help and why you should not ask me about it.

I also provide a little bit of advice that I feel it important to share in by role as a boxing coach...maybe a little reality check about shortcuts.

Cheers
