    I had a hard workout today Scrap, stretching, a lot of core work and warm up padwork and skipping. Have a run planned for tonight. I will give this a go tomorrow at the gym. Thanks!

    There are a lot of different types of signals to look for. These are the ones most relevant to boxing (the ones you can look for before you close with your opponent)

    If your opponent shuffles in or out (or any time they step) watch how they land. If they land "solid" that means their ankle/knee/hip are all open correctly. If you see a very slight rock or wobble onto either the heel or the toe that means they're correcting for a problem (usually the coccyx).

    It can be very slight.

    Look at their neck for signs of muscular tension (this should be easier with boxers than with overweight martial artists ). If their stance is correct, the chin should be slightly tucked to extend/stretch the spine. This should relax the muscles around the neck. If you see little ropy muscles (like what you'd see if you were clenching your teeth or tugging your head to one side or the other) they're compensating.

    Lastly, look to see if they are hunching. If someone hunches they tend to overtuck the coccyx. Not always, especially if you look at sambo and greco roman guys, but otherwise it's you can usuall count on some overtucking.

    These are the easiest signs to explain on a messageboard. Most of the training we do to feel the structure is after contact has been made. If the ideas I wrote about up there don't make sense, I can try to explain the heart of the idea from our perspective. I tried finding a good example on youtube to show you, but it's hard to explain without being able to demonstrate...

    -Ben
    Awesome Benfish - i've got a lot to think about there and i'll try to keep it in mind and see what i can spot just with the people around me i guess! f you ever do find a vid I'd be really interested in watching it!

    Scrap i was in a gym for a while which taught a sort of skip for footwork with the double jab rather than 2 steps. Is this wrong - an adaption just to make up for the fact that many of us have our coccyx out or jsut a different technique?

    Well the fact that you don't know what I mean probably isn't a good sign for what i was taught with the skip/shuffle footwork for the double jab.

    I'll have to think about how I can better explain myself and try again when I'm not sleep deprived and actually have some communicative ability!

    Ha Scrap. That is a cool test of balance. I am okay, but I tried throwing several ways to see what you meant, and if you are slightly off balance...you cannot step forward with your left foot after you throw the second jab, period...without landing on your face!

    I purposefully over extended just a little to figure out what you were getting at.

    Owned A lot of the time its hard for describing some of these things, Im more a Hands on type. Sharla on the stretches theres a couple of good ones for your problem in fact three or four when you come over we will sort you out a routine.

    Scrap, you know I am YOUNGBLOOD, right? lol I lost a bet on the Cotto/Margarito fight and have to wear this silly name for one week. But is that what you were talking about? When off balance throwing the double jab, I could not step forward with my left foot at all?

    Yes mate, Oral stability is lost and the falt goes through the body. Have you seen the tread on fast Hands theres a technique there which Ive been working on for sometime its a Blinder. People cant grasp the context of it until they try it, then they try it and it solves all there problems and they are gobsmacked wish I could pattent it, .

    Yea, it was pretty interesting, that little test. I did it with some new guys at the gym, and more then 1/2 of them...as soon as they shot the 2nd jab...i'd say, STOP right there...now step forward with your left foot (or right for southie). And they couldn't. lol So then I felt all fancy saying ...well you see, you Coxxyx is out of whack. And they were like..."My what?" haha
