One of the most famous representations of an out-boxer is Muhammud Ali. Ali’s famous “floating” around the ring followed by quick footwork and even faster jabs was meant to catch an out-boxer’s opponent off guard and pack multiple jabs in a matter of seconds. Since an out-boxer keeps a solid distance from their opponent, they are masters at ducking and dodging opposing strikes throughout the match. Out-boxers tend to move around the ring, making balance and quick footwork key for an out boxer’s success.

Also referred to as a puncher or brawler, fighters in this style tend to (or at least try) to win their matches by knockout. Sluggers tend to have a thicker and very strong body type and can put all of their strength and weight into their punches. This also allows them to take heavy blows. You typically do not see a slugger dancing around the ring or overcrowding their opponent. Instead, they look for opportunities to strike their opponents powerfully and precisely to ensure a knockout.","What is a slugger?",{"_uid":684,"answer":685,"question":686,"component":670},"c7f4e787-ad22-45f9-9f56-325c0ea47791","A boxer-puncher is a combination of an out-boxer and a slugger. Like an out-boxer, a boxer-puncher has mobility, stamina, and accurate footwork, but can also pack a devastating hit, similar to a slugger. This style is well-rounded, and can adapt or favor different styles depending on who they are competing against. A boxer-puncher can typically go up against any style of boxing.

These small and lightweight trackers can be slipped into your quick wraps and will give you real insight into your punch count and you can track your progress.

But if you stay prepared and take the weather seriously, you’ll be able to enjoy a safe and successful winter workout.\n\nWatch the Windchill\nWe’re serious about this! No matter what type of training you’re doing and how long you’re outside, knowing when to go back inside is critical. When the windchill falls below -18 degrees F, frostbite takes only 30 minutes to set it. It’s also important to remember that if you get wet while working out in the cold – like running in the rain or the snow – it will be harder for your body to maintain its core temperature, and you risk physical injury and illness. \n\nProtect Your Extremities\nWhen you exercise, your body is sending all the blood it can to your core, leaving your extremities – head, hands, ears, and feet – to fend for themselves. This makes them especially vulnerable to frostbite. Here are some easy ways to protect yourself:\n\nWear thin wicking gloves beneath a pair of heavier wool- or fleece-lined mittens. That’s right – double the coverage! \n\nInvest in sneakers a half size larger than normal so you can comfortably wear thicker socks\n\nWear a hat or headband that covers your ears\n\nOn colder days, consider a ski mask, hunting mask, or balaclava that protects your face\n\nWear Layers\nWhen you exercise in the cold, your body goes through a roller coaster of temperatures. As your heart rate increases, you will start to feel warmer than you really are. But as your sweat evaporates, it pulls heat from your body, and suddenly you’re cold again. The answer to this Catch 22 is to wear layers that you can take off and put on as needed. Wearing a synthetic layer against your skin will help wick away sweat, and a fleece layer on top of that will provide insulation. For your top layer, consider something waterproof and wind-resistance. Avoid cotton at all costs; once it gets wet, it stays wet, and your body won’t be able to re-regulate its core temperature. \n\nDon’t Forget Sunscreen\nJust because it’s not hot out doesn’t mean the sun won’t burn. In fact, if you’re exercising in the snow or at high altitudes, the sun will be even more likely to burn your skin. If you’re exercising in the cold consistently, always wear sunscreen, a lip balm with sunscreen, and sunglasses. ","How do you work out in cold weather?",{"_uid":1324,"answer":1325,"question":1326,"component":670},"cec91481-87c0-479c-866f-7ac6986ed5ed","Motivating yourself through the dark months can be a challenge.

While exercise is known to be a mood booster year-round, it’s especially important during the colder months when sunlight and endorphins are in short supply. Fresh air and exercise will help overcome and prevent Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), anxiety, and depression.  \n\nBoost Your Immune System\nRegular physical activity is great for maintaining a strong immune system, which is especially vital in the colder months when viral diseases are running rampant.

Our society is fixated on working out and high-intensity interval training, but too much of anything can harm your well-being. You don’t need to kick your butt every day to see results. Overtraining is a real thing, and the National Academy of Sports Medicine has a few exercise-related symptoms of overtraining:\n\n-A plateau or decline in workout performance or progress\n-A perception of increased exertion during “normal” or “easy” workouts\n-Excessive sweating or overheating\n-Unusual feelings of heaviness, stiffness, or muscle soreness\n-A lack of feeling “refreshed” after regular rest and recovery\n-Recurrent injuries include muscle sprains, tendonitis, stress fractures, and chronic joint pain\n-A decline in enthusiasm for exercise (or skipping or quitting workouts) \n\nThese are just some examples of what happens when you overtrain. Still, they’re not limited to poor sleep, increased resting heart rate/blood pressure, mood swings, persistent fatigue, or low energy. The seven points shared above are subjective but should not be taken lightly. If these symptoms last longer than two months, please consult your physician as soon as possible.

Foam rolling, stretching, learning to juggle, gratitude walks, playing an instrument, swimming, learning how to salsa dance (shout out to Aaron and Flo), or meditation are some examples of “work-in.” Make sure to monitor sleep for recovery; 7-8 hours of consistent bedtime sleep has been proven to help restore your body and leave you feeling refreshed.\n\nDoing absolutely nothing is not beneficial to your wellness.

To do this head movement drill, get into your boxing stance. Then slip to whichever side you prefer, making sure not to let your chin cross your knee. From there you have 5 options:\n\nPivot out, resetting the drill to the start (avoiding pressure and perhaps taking a better angle on your imaginary opponent)\n\nWeave under to the other side (to avoid hooks)\n\nPull back/sway (good for avoiding uppercuts)\n\nDouble dip (duck further that way to avoid a catch shot, ALWAYS follow this with an immediate big pivot or weave)\n\nThrow a punch (it's important that defense and offense are fluid) \n\nKeep mixing up what side you start on and what options you go to until they all start to flow together and take it slow.

For this drill, the only boxing head movement equipment you’ll need is a long, straight line to follow (preferably tape at least 10-13 feet). Set up your boxing stance on the far end of the line so that each foot is on one side of it with your back to the length of the line. From there, we follow these steps, never letting your feet cross the line.\n\nThe opponent is pressuring with a jab. Slip towards your lead leg, loading up your lead hand.\n\n The opponent tries to catch your slip with a cross. Hop back with a lead check hook, slipping to your rear leg at the same time.\n\nThe opponent tries to smother you. Shuffle step back while throwing a cross (or uppercut), returning your head to a neutral position. \n\nRepeat step 1\n\nThe goal of this is again to train your body to always naturally move your head when you punch, whether going backward or forward. Speaking of forwards, we’ve reached the end of the line, and now have to go back up. Here are the steps for that half of the drill.\n\nYour opponent is holding his ground. step forward behind the jab, slipping to your rear leg (the inside).\n\nThe opponent is retreating but throwing punches. Step forward with a right cross while slipping towards your lead leg, avoiding the opponent’s check jab.\n\nThe opponent tries to hop back. Using that conveniently loaded lead hand, hop forward with a check lead hook while shifting weight back to the rear leg, both catching the opponent off balance and again taking your head far out of harm's way\n\nReturn to neutral and repeat the sequence\n\nThe purpose here is twofold. One is to get you used to one of the most common sequences in all of boxing (1-2-3 or 1-2 smother). The other is to train your body to constantly be in motion whether on offense or defense. It is far easier to adjust a body that is already moving than it is to move a body that is standing still.","How do you do a boxing line drill?\n",{"name":233,"created_at":234,"published_at":235,"updated_at":236,"id":237,"uuid":238,"content":1817,"slug":233,"full_slug":253,"sort_by_date":48,"position":254,"tag_list":1829,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":57,"meta_data":48,"group_id":256,"first_published_at":257,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":1830,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":240,"name":241,"category":1818,"component":39,"meta_info":1826,"block_image":1827,"cover_image":1828,"internal_notes":7},{"name":140,"created_at":141,"published_at":142,"updated_at":143,"id":144,"uuid":145,"content":1819,"slug":140,"full_slug":325,"sort_by_date":48,"position":55,"tag_list":1824,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":135,"meta_data":48,"group_id":327,"first_published_at":328,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":1825,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":147,"name":148,"topics":1820,"component":118,"meta_info":1821,"meta_title":7,"block_image":1822,"cover_image":1823,"internal_notes":7,"meta_description":7},[156,184,211,238,265,292],{"_uid":315,"title":316,"plugin":43,"description":317},{"id":319,"alt":320,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":320,"filename":321,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":323,"alt":320,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":320,"filename":324,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],{"_uid":243,"title":244,"plugin":43,"description":245},{"id":247,"alt":248,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":248,"filename":249,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":251,"alt":248,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":248,"filename":252,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],"efb09565-d096-488b-8f7f-7e80e6045b1d",{"type":731,"content":1833},[1834,1839,1859,1864,1869,1873,1905,1909,1914,1924,1944,1948,1953,1957,1983,1987,2013,2017,2022,2034,2038,2047],{"type":734,"attrs":1835,"content":1836},{"level":736},[1837],{"text":1838,"type":740},"How to Get Better Head Movement in Boxing",{"type":742,"content":1840},[1841,1843,1850,1852,1857],{"text":1842,"type":740},"Head movement in boxing is one of the most impressive aspects of a boxing match.

The Philly Shell defense is constructed of 3 main factors:\n\nThe Philly Shell\n-The lead hand is turned and tucked against the sternum in an ‘L’ shape, raising the shoulder to protect the chin.\n-The rear hand is tucked tight against the chin on the other side, providing solid defense from both right and left-hand shots to the body and head.\n-Twisting the hips to either side allows the boxer to deflect punches off his lead shoulder or rear hand, enabling quick counter shots.\n\nThe usual weakness of this defensive boxing technique is that punch selection from this position is generally limited, however, Floyd was able to negate this weakness by using his very high ring IQ and clever use of a flicking jab off the back foot to funnel opponents into the right ‘lines of fire’ to land his best punches and negate theirs. Watch his skills in full effect by watching the Mayweather vs. Mosley fight.","What is Floyd “Money” Mayweather Jr. defense technique?\n",{"_uid":2092,"answer":2093,"question":2094,"component":670},"befbc1a2-6313-4b8c-95d1-68e45720e118","Just as Mayweather is considered the best defensive boxer of this age, many consider Pernell Whitaker the best defensive boxer of the previous boxing era. An incredibly slick southpaw fighter, Whitaker used the check lead hook and stutter step, common tools for defensive boxers to prevent opponents from lining up punches correctly. This allowed him to use his incredible reflexes to dodge seemingly hundreds of punches at a time. Here’s how these techniques work in tandem:\n\n-First, an orthodox opponent throws a jab. Whitaker slips to the outside of the jab to pivot right while simultaneously throwing a quick hook/looping jab over the top.\n-Next, the opponent turns to continue the approach, likely behind a high guard.

Here’s how these two techniques work.\n\nThe Ali Shuffle\n-The Ali Shuffle is a visual trick used to throw off timing. To do the Ali Shuffle, you rapidly switch your front and rear foot back and forth, eventually interrupting this sequence with a punch. \n-The best way to use this technique is to intersperse it in-between stick and move style footwork to throw off the opponent’s rhythm, making them second guess the timing of their punches.\n\nThe Rope a Dope\n-The Rope a Dope is a risky strategy used to frustrate and exhaust a fighter who is low on stamina, preferably a brawler with less than stellar technique. It relies on quick reflexes and the added help of the elastic ring ropes to allow you to wildly dodge punches for an extended period without falling off balance.\n-This strategy works best against heavy-handed boxers that have already thrown a lot of punches, as the Rope a Dope relies on the opponent getting tired to be effective.

If you don’t want to hit a heavy bag (or just don’t have room for one in your home), shadowboxing is an equally effective cardio workout that can burn calories as well as increase speed and endurance without any impact on your joints.","Can boxing be low-impact?",{"name":206,"created_at":207,"published_at":208,"updated_at":209,"id":210,"uuid":211,"content":2395,"slug":206,"full_slug":226,"sort_by_date":48,"position":227,"tag_list":2407,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":57,"meta_data":48,"group_id":229,"first_published_at":230,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":2408,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":213,"name":214,"category":2396,"component":39,"meta_info":2404,"block_image":2405,"cover_image":2406,"internal_notes":7},{"name":140,"created_at":141,"published_at":142,"updated_at":143,"id":144,"uuid":145,"content":2397,"slug":140,"full_slug":325,"sort_by_date":48,"position":55,"tag_list":2402,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":135,"meta_data":48,"group_id":327,"first_published_at":328,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":2403,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":147,"name":148,"topics":2398,"component":118,"meta_info":2399,"meta_title":7,"block_image":2400,"cover_image":2401,"internal_notes":7,"meta_description":7},[156,184,211,238,265,292],{"_uid":315,"title":316,"plugin":43,"description":317},{"id":319,"alt":320,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":320,"filename":321,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":323,"alt":320,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":320,"filename":324,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],{"_uid":216,"title":217,"plugin":43,"description":218},{"id":220,"alt":221,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":221,"filename":222,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":224,"alt":221,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":221,"filename":225,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],{"type":731,"content":2410},[2411,2415,2419,2423,2436,2440,2444,2449,2461,2474,2479,2490,2494,2516,2521,2532,2545,2550,2554,2558,2567],{"type":742,"content":2412},[2413],{"text":2414,"type":740},"Let’s talk about cardio!
