- www.myboxingcoa... for boxing techniques - A Boxing How to Guide for the Pivot. The pivot is one of those often overlooked aspects of boxing. The main reason that it is overlooked is that on the face of it the pivot is not a 'glamorous' skill. It doesn't for instance offer the potential for an explosive end to a contest as does a short range left hook. Nor does the pivot catch the eye in the same way that evading an attack by using deft slips and ducks can. So, if there's one thing I'd like this video to achieve, it's to provide proof that the pivot is the single most versatile skill that a boxer uses, providing options to unlock many an adversary. After watching this video and reading the article at www.myboxingcoa..., I'm sure you'll be sold on the usefulness and versatility of the pivot and are eager to know exactly how to execute this most under-rated of boxing techniques!
Hey
Nice question and yes, I get you. :-)
You might use it less against someone who backs away as you would against someone who attacks lots. You would also use it slightly differently up close as opposed to at long range. Just experiment and you'll find different ways of using it. Hope this helps
Greatly appreciate all your coaching videos coach from Ocala Florida USA thanks again from a young 49 year-old :-)
I'm not a boxer but now I have the opportunity to understand better the center line.Thanks for sharing this knowledge.
@KaishakuBJJ Thanks mate. That's exactly what I was aiming for. No false promises, just straightforward advice that cuts through the BS and actually helps. Thank you
Thanks a lot for these videos. You are a great coach and everyone really appreciates the advice. Explained perfectly and very easy to understand and put into practice. Cheers from Australia and keep up the great work!
You're welcome, and thanks for taking the time to comment.
You're right to spot the slight vulnerability during the pivot. This is a risk, but as a boxer the entire period in the ring is a risk. The trick is I suppose to minimize the risk when executing skills. On the moving left and right thing. We 'push' left, so the only reason that the right foot moves right is because we push off the left. Good comment. Constructive. Thanks
Thsnks I just worked out where to place weight when I pivot, thanks to your video
Thanks and you're welcome. I do some video analysis articles on the site and the pivot is often referenced in those just as you say here.
Read your article on the pivot and watched the video. You deliver insightful info that's easy to understand. Well done and thanks! Subbed!
Thank you Jeroen
Good pointer about pushing the right way.
nice man...your videos have had me improve from 4 to 10.and makes me feel in controll
Cool, thanks
me too. This man is amazing. There's some footwork in one of his videos that I've NEVER seen in 4 years of boxing practice.
@obamabruin Thanks for the comment, very kind of you.
Brilliant I've seen that exact demonstration in a boxing match btw Floyd mayweather vs Gatti.. He was long rang keeping distance and his jab had a nice nap to the wrist coming out one of those angels shown. Love it ..
Thank you for the comment and thank you for the real world example...always helpful that type of contribution.
+Fran Sands NP..
Fran, I'm a big fan of your videos. I watch them multiple times to re-learn the concepts to help me when I'm sparring. I would definitely visit your gym if I lived in the U.K.
+Sage K Cool, thanks for the feedback, really nice.
Depends what you mean by 'twist your foot'. What's important is that the stance itself remains intact as you pivot.
@RawrrShadd There are 3 to choose from mate. Go to the site and search on 'short range left hook', 'mid range left hook' or 'long range left hook'. You'll find a video from which you should be able to grasp the basics.
Informative and simply stated.
Great instruction! Thought that was a Deadpool boxing equipment on the right!
😂 Similar level of obscene language in the gym
@aaron2009time Thanks and sorry for the delay Aaron. Good stuff mate, enjoy your boxing and get a good run in those Champs. Be good to know how you go.
@MrKeepnit100 Yeah sure, there are videos and articles on both of those body movements on the site. Go to the homepage, click on the drop down list on the right of the screen and look under 'body movements'
First of all thanks for this video. The power of this video could be increased by showing pivots (short fractions) done by professional boxers in professional fights to show the importance of pivoting.
thanks. there's not many tutorials around on this kind of stuff
For that stance that is brilliantly executed! kudoos
I'm not boxing, I do Jiu Jitsu, but I love these Videos. I want to start with Thai Boxing after a tournament in 2 months and I'd like to know if boxing footwork works well in Thai Boxing. Can somebody answer this questions Please?
Just wanna say thanks for your videos. They've really sharpen my boxing techniques =)
I always liked using a T or cross with tape to help train this....
well explained though.
good explanation on balance
could you do a video representing the the hip pivot for maximum punching power.
this is a really good video very easy to understand, glad i watched it cuz i i didnt that i was making the mistake of exaggerating my pivot like i was
i need to actually see some of this footwork applied in real time to grasp what it should look like as a finished product and the opponent
Appreciate the videos a lot. Really good calm down to earth instruction. Especially appreciate the southpaw videos. Cheers!
can you make a video about doubling up the left hook and doubling up the right hand. amazing videos by the way
0:30 Pivot sublte move is change create angels for short range punchee
1:10 good for long and clothe range
1:55 Pivot to rt push off lft leg or front leg(back leg move then front leg pivot )
2:30 pivot to left push off rt leg or back leg! (Front leg pivot then back leg move )
So always opposite leg move when other leg push I think!
Could u explain it for a south paw
@@Lapolitics come sk deez nutz
I didnot do dis for u buddy
@sgt7 Your welcome sarge, hope it's added something to you game!
You're welcome. Thank you.
great video as always sir
You're welcome.
Thank you
Thanks for the vid! Very nicely done!
@jokrgraffiti1 Your welcome pal
great lessons...clear and 100% correct
Thank you very much indeed
Never heard of 'pivot action' in relation to the shoulder to be honest. Are there any other sports that you do (or in fact your day job) after which you shoulder hurts? Shoulders are complex things and can be susceptible to injury in boxing. Maybe check with your Doctor?
Your videos are 110% Specific and great I raped the like button
@CRF25036 Thank you!
Thnx
that was useful to understand this chapter :)
Hajime no Ippo chapter 806 page 10
3 years later and we still wait for chapter 1189 😂
How are u? Im from argentina. I love watching your videos. U explaint so good. I do wing tsun. I also can use your tips in my kung fu. Thank u!
This is great stuff. Thankyou.
So in orthodox when you pivot to the right you push off your left and when you pivot to the left you push off the right?
@Maryjaneslave My guess it is the speed of the movement. It got to be fast, instead of dragging. So lifting it will be faster.
fantastic info, thanks
+CrapGadgetReviews You're welcome and thank you
@anaconda118 I'll try, and it's great that your skills are developing!
Good video fran
@marymary111 Thank you, very nice comment
@jokrgraffiti1 Well done Jokr man!
awesome! subscribed
- adds an extra way to be unpredictable
Question plz 😖
Why you push off rt leg when going to left I feel its wrong
Becz I naturally lean forward!!!
Can you explain ?
Coach, nice demo! But could you throw in the punches combo if you pivot right or left? I would think that if I pivot right, I punch with a right hook/upper cut then a left hook. Pivot left , left hook then a cross?
Can you please make a video on using the double end bag? Thanks.
+aguilar69 See what I can do
+Fran Sands 👍👍👍
Hi Fran, could you simultaneously side step and pivot (is this your angled side step)? If I understand it correctly, keeping your lead foot in the same place lets your opponent still run into you (or at least your lead leg). And if they stop short of crashing into you, you'll end up facing the blank space in front of your opponent rather than your opponent himself. Would you elaborate? Thanks!
The angled side step is kind of like pivoting and side stepping at the same time - you are probable combining the mechanical elements of each. The same outcome is desired, keeping the opponent in the firing line whilst taking yourself off the centre line.
do you have any tutorials on weaving and slipping?
How the hell do you push off the front leg, when it’s the one keeping you grounded while your back leg is up? My brain can’t figure that out. 😭
Im a big guy with a very long reach and struggling to nail a short stance as my arms do not connect like a smaller guy when close up. Any tips?
I got the same problem tbh
@jokrgraffiti1 good job man!
My left shoulder always hurts so much after boxing I can barely lift it, someone said it maybe due to poor pivot action. Is this true and any advice on how to fix it?
Hi!, is it correct if I pivot while I'm ducking?
Hello, can you explain, me , please, why sometime people just "step" before the pivot? To increase speed? To make a feint? Your pivot is basic, simple, and that's perfect for me, but why do people step on their front, and then pivot? Thanks, sorry for my english level, i'm french.
+Ced Ros Your English is very good :-) Not sure why they step then pivot. A side step and a pivot are 2 separate skills.
+Fran Sands Sorry, what i mean is that they just do a little step fast forward and then pivot, step forward and pivot.And another question, as a southpaw, if an orthodox rush on me, what s the better thing to do not to move back? Side step? Pivot? Jab cross to block them? I m better to find opening than my opponents, but i'm weak when they rush at me. Thanks for your video, that s beacause of your videos that i'm a little bit better than my opponents .
Feet not planted to the flood pivot foot not working at all. This is a quick way to get knocked out. Why???? Because you to off balance and footwork is sloppy.
wait so you dont twist your foot a little cuz my boxing coach said that's how you pivit
@marymary111 hell yeah he breaks it down bttr than my coach. mine uses all these metphors when he teaches lol
5 People suck at boxing and cant relate to this guys skills
I can't throw a left hook :(
Ninja techniques
Naaa
Is it just me or is hard as hell doing this when opponent is rushing you in the ring
Try it with the left hook Carles, you get some real whip in the shot.
Fran Sands thanks for the reply on the 7 year old video,really appriciate it :)
Carles no worries pal. I have a little staying power. 7 years is a mere blink of the eye 😀
stop talking .... do the action.....
Yesum Miss Daisy. I's be drivin' Miss Daisy.
Fran Sands LOL!
