i grew up watching you :) thank you for years of content G
Same, crazy how his content has changed over time back when he’d do more “street fight” vids now to focus more on the sport aspects
Same here I am a amateur boxer now and also train MMA in Cleveland Ohio 🤘🏽
Same used to watch his videos back in 2012 I’m currently relearning MMA at my local gym in England I sometimes visit his channel for advice
Just realized this year marks 10 years I have been watching you. Thank you for all you have done for us, Shane. You're the best ♡
shane has come a long way from those early videos 😄
You helped me shape my teen years man, youre a legend. To this day i still learn from you, let me get up rn and shadowbox
Thank you for this. I’ve shadowboxed/shadow wrestled for 30 minutes per solo session for years instead of running. For a 48 year old, my cardio is great, and I outlast many of the much younger students I’ve taught. Dr. Israel (bodybuilder and BJJ brown belt) has talked about how it’s more intelligent to do sport-specific movements for your cardio than simply running, and Ramsey Dewey and other coaches have said the same. It just makes sense. Thanks again!
Israetel is the man
I found myself in what you said that’s how I do it
This is like a dance, I can’t look away. Incredible demonstration of movement and technique. Thanks for sharing
First minutes into the video and this is gold! Thank you sir. I used to hate running (I kinda still do) but thanks to you and mr Varga I was able to pull off a running routine that fits me, I'll definitely add this into it!
Shane, your shadow-kickboxing skills technique on a fightTips video channel is a true art of masterpiece. Great Job!!! 💪🥊
I've been training for years and I'm still impressed by the way you move. You have incredible fluidity and precision in your punches. Thank you for sharing your great experience❤
Bruh! I remember OG fightTips and still channel is still going strong. Happy for you
Thanks Jamil!
I came to your channel about 6 months after I got severely beat up. I did gymnastics all my life and was beat up as a 16 year old. Older athletes held me in a full nelson and took turns throwing hard punches on and off for over 30 minutes. I was scared shitless and felt totally vulnerable and helpless. Held in a full nelson shirtless with my whole torso wide open for targeting got my attention. Unfortunately I turn out to be very good at taking hard punches. I did NOT think about learning to fight. I only thought how to build up my abdominals to be rock hard. I'm age 22 now and did gymnastic for 14 years. After getting beat up I moved further from gymnastics and more into weightlifting for hypertrophy--especially legs. But I decided to check out channels on how to fight and your channel was hugely helpful. I think you encouraged me in emails or comments--you said I could build up my abs all I want to take punches but being kicked in the liver or kidneys is totally something else. Message received. I still get up training to take punches but I did not pretend that it would help me in a fight. Anyway seeing this video--that was my situation why I came to your channel.
Why dont learn how To fight at that Point? Sounds Like you are very physically capable so whats stopping you? After all offense is the best Form of defense
@@DarkPages You are totally right about offense. Back then I wasn't thinking of fighting back. I was addicted to abdominal training from maybe age 6 or 7. I was more or less addicted to long difficult abs workouts. When I got beat up so badly I woke up something in me that gave me a different hunger. I know it sounds stupid now but I got very fascinated with how well I could take punches. I never had friends at school as my only friends were gymnasts but they lived hours away and saw them only at gymnastics academy. After I took punches so well I became popular with some school athletes. I really wanted friends at school and suddenly there were maybe 10 guys who invited me to hang out with them. I more or less used my body to keep them as friends. I got very good at taking hard punches and it just became a way for me to be unique. I tried wrestling and one of the coaches tried to get me to join the team. He did not know his wrestlers were throwing hard punches but watched me workout with his team. I was invited to go to the like and go hiking and camping. I loved having friends to do fun things with. Taking punches wasn't too hard usually. I'm more a gymnast at heart than a fighter maybe. But I did look into boxing at some point. But it didn't take a hold on me.
@@anthonywilson1754 well im very sorry To say but this Sounds Like youre selling your Body To get people To Like you. That Sounds very unhealthy. I Hope youre Not doing that anymore. Also you can train your Abs AA much as you want one Well placed livershot will Ruin all of that. Also dont forget i could kick you in the head of? You cant train for that except by knowing how To fight.
Another straight Gem form fight tips
Bro you got cardio for days grew up watching your channel back in the day you’re amazing
I've been watching you know for since 2015, as a fighter and coach i have advance thanks to you! don't stop!
Great commentary, learning a lot for my own shadowboxing follow alongs🙏🏼
I substituted jogging with shadowboxing a long time ago. I found out that I get better results in a shorter amount of time. And as you say, you gotta train for what you do, and I'm not a runner.
Your content has been instrumental to my martial arts career in the last 10 years thank you so much
Your channel is the best thanks dude
I know it's nowhere near the same, but because of my shattered left leg (motorcycle crash 11 years ago) I have to do the stationary bike instead. I try to get a minimum of 7 miles a day with heart rate between 130-140. It usually takes me about 42 mins to do that. Not as fit as I once was, but working on it. Still have ok hands and experience in grappling.
Great video!
Keep pushing friend
@@SillyRobot Thank you! I really appreciate your support!
You really one of the OG’s pertaining to boxing content
Hardest part of shadowboxing for me is that I barely have three minutes worth of creative combinations to drill.
Honestly you dont need to.
What helps me is to imagine an absolute tank keeps coming towards me no matter what i throw at him.
So i mainly focus on moving a lot, side steps, pendulum steps, ducking, weaving... then throwing some fast 2 punch combinations before moving away.
So dont worry too much about throwing them fancy combinations. Rather focus on NOT standing still. Always move. Always mix up your guard from high to cross guard to framing to throwing maybe 1 or 2 hands.
Hope that helps a bit!!
Love Dennit's post. And the piggy back off of it: you technically don't have to throw ANY punches when you shadowbox.
First round can be just footwork, feints, and defense.
Second round can add on jab variations.
Third round can be just the lead arm punches (hooks, uppercuts; high and low)
Fourth round can add on the rear hand
And so forth.
@@fighttips thank you for your kind response. I’m a huge fan of your channel!!
So insightful yet absolutely down to earth and honest.
Decently one of the best channels to follow!
@@dennit1221 This is a brilliant reply! Thank you! Such a great tip!
@@fighttips Awesome addition to dennit's post! thank you :)
Ngl the thrill of the fight (vr game) is great for cardio, upgraded version of shadowboxing just gotta remember to keep good form.
Facts. It also puts you on pressure and stress.
This is amazing, great idea for a video too
😅Awesome breakdown on defensive maneuvers! Your step-by-step guide really helped with my counterattacks
Been doing this since the past three weeks. Feels great after each session. Results are showing up but I just need to focus on my diet for even better progress. Thank you for giving us this video!
You are completly right.im a jiu-jitsu black belt and feel mor confident when i work on my boxing or muay thai skills as they were my first loves when i was a kid😅.peace from paris
For anybody who wants to do 30 minutes of shadowboxing instead of 30 minutes of running, please consider the following. I like the theory and idea about controlling the heartbeat and aerobic intensity. And I like that you try to find alternative ways for training cardio. But the danger is that if applied wrong it can actually be a way of training yourself into having a predictable autopilot rythm.
Here is why: Despite variations in your punch and kick combos the rythm you throw combos in is constantly the same, which makes sense because 30 minutes is a lot of time to get into a rythm pattern. After a while your body synchronizes into a rythm and it will be difficult to change the frequency and accelerate, which is a detrimental part of boxing and martial arts in general. Anybody that runs for 30 minutes at a decent pace knows that after a while your rythm is so tight, that even if you had the energy to accelerate, it would really be difficult to do so. And even if you have enough energy to increase the frequency of your stride, it feels like your legs just dont want to, like having weights on your ancles and knees. In this case it is not fatigue, but actually the rythm being set by your body to conserve energy. After 10 minutes your nervous system, breath and heart rate have alligned to the point of it being difficult to change the rythm. This is your bodies version of cruise control. And I think that is actually dangererous to train in shadowboxing. A 30 minute run is good for cardio, because you dont get into a rythmic habit of fighting by running. You do get that when you shadowbox for 30 minutes.
Anyway some cardio is still better than no cardio training. so I suggest that if you decide to go for it still, to do this in interval and tempo switches. Maybe starting with only a handful of punches and resting while being on the move and having short bursts of 20 seconds increase in tempo and frequence once every 2 minutes. And the combos you throw have to always be in different rythms and different frequencies. So basicaly where one will be with more beats in between for punches for the instance 1--1-2 the other one has to be 112; hard, fast and snappy. Than trying to rest in between when you throw and move around. But overall, if you have the discipline to go running for 30 minutes or even jump rope for 30 minutes. I would do that over 30 minutes of shadow boxing, for the reasons I mentioned above. Anyway in order for this to be useful for cardio, you have to worry about soo many things besides just doing everything with good technique. Just go for a run, it is super relaxing.
Wow.
I remember when you were just a boxer, joking around about throwing kicks and elbows.
Now you're a well rounded striker!
Yeah your dead on. Lot of people needs to hear the truth bruh. Shadow boxing is my meditation Nice video. 😊
Its so odd that i remember watching you in highschool freshman year now im 26 lol. You really are an OG
I learned and teach what is called the "2 Minute " partner drill. One person holds the focus mitts and moves around , and the other punches for 2 minutes . Either the mitt holder or a 3rd person calls out even numbers from 2 to 10 at random every few seconds and thats how many punches have to be thrown. For the final 10 seconds you punch non-stop. It doesn't seem like it , but by 1:30 your heart is pounding . A few rounds of this is and you're getting in great cardio plus learning to relax and not gas . I just haven't figured out how to duplicate it solo.
Very important !
I train my clients originally the same idea.
Why go out to run, when u can do shadowboxing ?
And film yourself, to improve your skills
I threw up after 19 minutes
Good job
U made it more than halfway 👏🏽
Next time you'll make it to the end of the video.
You did well
Hell yeah!
Shane brings the no nonsense info EVERY TIME! Can't help but feel that BoB felt left out tho...
Excellent. Thank you!
Yo, that table of bio-energy is pretty helpful. Nice.
I constantly share how important shadowboxing is. I also constantly share how important 2:42 is - these two fightTIPS alone are far more than worth their weight in 🥇
He's not getting old😍
I thought this was all boxing; when he threw that kick I lost my $#!t 😂😂 3:43
If you asked me earlier today if I could sit through a video of a guy shadow boxing for 30 minutes it would have been a hard ‘no’… Fast forward, I was glued to every minute of this video haha.
Well done, sir!
This video is gem 💪
As a dude who's into amateur Muay Thai, love to run but suffer from trochlear dysplasia (born with little to no groove for my kneecaps; bad arthritis pain/major inflammation at 28). Shadowboxing is amazingly helpful when I can't run. Still swell up with inflammation if I overdo it, but at least I practice technique.
I found your channel years ago but i only just found it again thru the algorithm
Good practice to train multiple stances and styles switching southpaw and orthodox is great for endurance too let’s you rest one side of the body at a time obviously within reason
I feel like it's easier to spar or fight than shadowbox because shadow boxing is difficult to imagine an opponent
Definitely takes practice, but I highly recommend checking out my shadowboxing programs on shop.fighttips.com -- they will help you to build strategies in a layered fashion, with cues to visualize different styled opponents.
Thats the nice thing about sparring is that after clocking in alot of sessions, you can now imagine opponents better cause you had actual opponents. Imagine replaying a session and thinking of what you could have done different.
Have you done VR “shadow boxing” such as “Thrill Of The Fight”?
For me, shadow boxing is boring but that vr boxing is engaging and fun (though I usually end up doing more anaerobic than ideal)
Hey Shane, what do you think doing the same but using the heavybag? Muliple rounds of 3-5 mins including footwork, feints and all the good stuff.
For sure
Great video!! Thank you so much!
This is great, thank you 💯
The first minute summed up my entire life
i like how you protect your hair after every combo, and make sure it's nice :D - from a bald guy
New here. Love it. Keep it up chama.
Love watching you shadowboxing...it's very satisfying.
What are your thoughts about Trainingmasks for a better endurance?
Stay as you are und thanks for all the help you give to all of us.
Hey, nice video. What sort of power/speed percentage do you punch through the air with? Just asking since I got some elbow strain lately. Not sure if got it from shadowboxing or burpees, probably it was dumbell cleans. Also when you run, how do you fit in sprints and intervals in a nice way along with your cardio longruns over a week? Thanks again for all your fighttips.
Do you do 100% punches/kicks in your shadow boxing or are you just throwing them loosely? Or do you mix it up?
I like the shadow box with resistance bands. Try doing that for 10 minutes and see how sore your shoulders are the next day. But on another topic I watch the channel because I want to learn more techniques, never was bullied and never was scared to fight, because me and my brother's grew up fighting, our dad was a Golden Glove boxer
Ok but is your road work running guide from 5 years ago still relevant? bc that’s what I use for running to this day lol
When will you be selling 16 oz Velcro strap gloves again?
So how come Shane Fazen stopped fighting? I know people like teaching and stuff but, still. Kinda curious
I can see the opponent. I think you’re reaching Baki Hanma’s level of skill.
Unbelievable, I started watching your videos 10 years ago for self defense then came back for muay thai.
Gratitude, from saudi arabia.
That's what I like to hear! Sulatations to you and Saudi Arabia.
Start to "Olé the bull". Funny analogy
I was just looking for a wheel kick tutorial found a video of yours from like 10 years ago
Fight tips forever 👊🏻
Thank you. New follower… learning from your shadow boxing Sir. Any chance I can get any of those cassette you showed recently?
Thanks for the follow! The digital downloads are available at shop.fighttips.com, otherwise follow the directions mentioned in this video 👍
So if I shadow box for 30 minutes a day, then run after, then do 100 push-up sit ups and squats, will I go bald and be able to defeat everyone in one punch?
Allegedly
@@fighttips *is bald all of a sudden* “Shane you won’t believe it…”
Is it true that Chuck Norris can't shadow box incase he knocks out his own shadow....
Amazing!
hey, brother. hair brother to hair brother. If you scoop a bun made near the crown of your skull. You get no hair spillage. Hate it when it comes out. what shoes are they?
i can do shadowbboxing for up to 10 or 12 mins, now you are much more tolerant than i thought, haha
"You can only fight the way you train."
I was bullied in every country that we moved into and fighting back physically stopped it every time.
Good stuff.
would u say u can somthing like this with hyongs? in my dojang we do something like the first hyong one time, the second hyong 2 times, the third hyongs three times. my sabeomnim gives echt form a specific exercise... for example, if u came to the 3third hyong, the first should be as fast as possible, the second as strong as possible and the thrid fast an strong as possible. when the 4th hyong starts there is something like, only punches hard, then the kick harder or as high as possible and so on... do think this chould also improve the cardio?
It may seem obvious but the best way to visualise in shadow boxing is
1)sparring
2)sparring
3)sparring
4)watching fights,a lot of them.
And pls record your shadow boxing, you form is fuked i can gurantee that. And do pad drills to be more fluid on building combos
And shadowbox immediately after sparring to program your mind/body to move at a realistic pace with replicated strategies.
Good ish
Have you ever considered doing this as one of your guided workouts?
Hmm, interesting idea! I was thinking about a five, 5-minute MMA one next.
That was fun. Fuck yea.
can you do more videos on fighting fear, alot of people have fear of fighting in a boxing right or any type of martial art combat...can you make more videos of that..thanks love your stuff
I wouldn’t focus on fighting fear… I would it much on fear of how many idiots you find on the gyms totally miss understand the concept that you should go to the gym to learn…not to risk your bones and health…👋
learning new things each video thank you shane
I always find shadowboxing hard, if I am told to do it it gets messy, I just throw random combos till it's done.
I find it hard imagining an opponent moving in front of me and I don't know how improve on that... i need to though way too often I got no access to a sparing partner...
You gotta check out my shadowboxing programs -- I'll help you to progressively build on strategies and combos, as to avoid just throwing at random: shop.fighttips.com

Welcome to the team, Marco 🙏
First fitness channel on UA-cam?
Shadow boxing is deceivingly tiring. I used to think shadow boxing was easy now i do it almost everyday and it brings me up 170bpm.
I got so tired after 20minutes that I can’t do anymore and breath😅 I’m trying to improve
How many minutes should (we or I) shadow box for
Would you ever participate im influencer boxing? Like Misfits, MVP, etc.?
He posted a video about this. He had competed in boxing and muay thai before, for the reason to gain first hand experience and to learn to supplement his ultimate goal: to be a great coach. That's where his heart is. He doesn't want to be a fighter, that's all behind him now. He still trains, spar with world champion boxers, muay thai, and MMA fighters, for the same reason: to learn so that he has a lot more to teach.
i dont think anything can replace running not in terms of endurance and stamina shadow boxing may be second for cardio
Don't mean to be "that guy" but aerobic means "with oxygen." It's not limited to a time duration, if it makes you breath hard for a long time while you're doing it then it's probably aerobic.
Side kick 🦵
Is this Muay Thai or KickBoxing????
Can i start learning fighting at 26 😅 or now i m too old for this stuff , also sometimes i think what's the use of learning to fight !
Never too late to learn to fight, man
Should i do it every day or maybe just 2-3 times per week?
Anything is better than nothing, more is better than less, but too much is too much. Listen to your body, but push your mental limits. 1-6 days a week.
Please teach us fight from start
Can you do one for boxing only? 👊🏻
Yeah I hate running I prefer heavy bag work
we need knees to grounded opponenets in the UFC like in one. It would change the wrestling and ground game up so much, both with how people shoot and set up shots, but also when actually on the ground
also avg. heartrate of 180?! your watch gotta be off right?!
that's almost max heartrate for a 30-something year old dude like you!
What about swimming ?
Love shadow boxing, but for a guy with the mindset of always prepare to defend myself, I just wouldn't keep that hair style, no ear rings, no necklace either. Hair grabbing is a massive part that throw your daily training off the rail. Yes, you can have the idea and knowledge to how to deal with it, but long hair instantly put you in a big disadvantage no doubt.
I gotta level the playing field for my opposition 😈
