Amatuer Boxing Question

Alright, Will do. thanks for the advice, again Lol, oh and i got a new mouthguard,
one of those evergel ones for like 25bucks, and i formed it, it fits perfect, but i cant breathe out while throwing punches, while im wearing it. dont think theres a hole on the middle for my breathe.. should i just get a different mouthguard? or keep trying to get used to it. was just thinking of getting a like 10dollar double sided one to form.

Thats what your nose is for.

i thought you were supposed to.. breathe in through your nose.. and out through your mouth as you throw punches

[cnote111]

If you can breathe through your nose at all times its a plus and it also means you are in fantastic shape.

If you breathe out of your mouth while throwing punches that also means you are in your opponents range and you more than likely have a relaxed jaw. Bad things happen with a relaxed jaw.

I trained to breathe in and out calmly through the nose and out hard through the nose during a punch. It takes practice, but if you think about it the nose is on your face for the purpose of breathing and smelling. The mouth is for talking and eating.

I think us Americans need to use are nose more..

My nasal canal is pretty twisted, it's very hard for me to breath through my nose.
Punch resistance is never something I've had a problem with. You can breath through your mouth without having your jaw gaping open

Yeah i know, i used to have a mouthguard i could breathe out of my mouth with good, i got a evergel one, and it doesnt work as good for me as the cheap double sided mouth guard
