Boxing Footwork | Beginner Drills | Step While Punching

Defense and offense are at the core of boxing technique & tactics. Head movement, blocks, and footwork are three of the most basic skills any boxer can have in their arsenal.

In this video FightCamp Co-Founder and Trainer Tommy Duquette talks about the importance of footwork. If you’ve noticed, when two fighters are in the ring they are moving all over the place. That’s because footwork is being used to avoid, attack, and advance in the boxing ring.

It may sound silly, but learning to move while throwing punches is a bit like dancing. You need coordination, balance, and training to do it well and stay out of reach of your opponent. It’s also how you can master intricate heavy bag drills, and increase your cardio efforts when boxing for fitness or fun.

Drills:
◦ The Boxer Bounce
◦ Step & Punch
◦ Step & Jab
◦ 1 - 2 Forward & Backwards
◦ Lateral Stepping
◦ 1 - 2 Lateral Left & Right
