Rick Posted September 14, 2004 Posted September 14, 2004 Shadow boxing... How many of u do it? Do u find it beneficial in any way? Personally i love shadow boxing. Get in front of a mirror and just go hell for leather while metallica is playing in the background. It sure is a good workout. I mean, it's no substitute for bagwork, but what else are u gonna do when it's raining out, or it's cold (like winterish in Australia), or too dark or something? It's also good IMO for those wanting to pick on themselves on the technical side of things.

47MartialMan Posted September 15, 2004 Posted September 15, 2004 The devil was a tree..... Snyway, I guess shadow boxing will be OK. But for training, I'll spend the time on something else.
