A lot of what people do as it relates to stand up/boxing training can actually be counter-productive. Brian shows how to avoid these pitfalls. Material includes the most common training mistakes, how & why to emphasize movement, keeping the hands in the proper place, range, power, and use of the head for control on the inside. If you want to take your standup game to the next level, this is the disc! (55 minutes)
