Going through this post of mine I saw a lot of errors and a lot of nonsense that I just didn't like, so I decided to go back and revise it.

I may add more to it and and edit it later on. If anybody's interested I'll write more things that you can work on in shadow boxing, and I might make a topic on how to shadow box for beginners.

This is a great post Chris.

I recently joined a gym and would love it if u could do a shadowbixng for beginners article.

sorry to up such an old thread but fantastic article. I have been shadowboxing this way for a while now and I must say the improvements in my sparring are measurable. In particular, I visualise an opponent I usually have trouble with and box them exactly the way I should. Double jabs, feints, triple jabs, pivots off the ropes, and the best thing is when something you've tried in shadow boxing comes off in sparring!

Very good article, people should stop overlooking shadowboxing just to go and hit the bag.
