Didn’t know you was supposed to fully turn over the fist, I always stopped at my fist being horizontal like this👊. I’m gonna try this when I hit the bag.
Great tutorial on how to throw and deliver a punch correctly - if you keep practicing this until it's second nature and as natural as breathing, you've given yourself a great self-defense asset in or out of the boxing ring. Thanks for uploading.
I always wanted to still throw the straight with thumb up as their is more power from the lat (as per Sagat muay thai technique advice), but the protection and reach points you highlighted are valid.
@@clintj oh that's interesting I never knew that scapular extension depended on the lat. Always thought their main relationship was being a secondary muscle on a pull up etc
I think you should be telling people to roll their shoulder up, not to turn their fist because then it happens naturally, you can relax more and you're not wasting energy, and there's no unnecessary tension in your forearms pulling your fist back to a natural and stronger position.
Following along with the video, I don't know that these are valid. I know people say this but I don't think they're legit. Turning it over doesn't seem to give it distance. Turning over DOES seem to raise the shoulder but only when it turns over passed horizontal (for first).
Thanks for the tips! There is only one thing that I have noticed between you and my coach. When you demonstrate that extra range you both kinda poke your shoulders further out, but when I do the test I poke my shoulders as far out for palm in and out and I only get about a couple centimeters extra range instead of that far range you make it look. Also another question I have, is does turning the punch over at the right time give any kind of extra momentum? It feels like it when I throw punches, but i'm not sure if that is just because I have always practiced by turning them over so it feels better.
You probably want to turn the punch over later rather than earlier. I feel like the late turn over gives you that extra pop of power. Yes. You are only going to get a tiny bit of extra range during the turnover. I just over embellished it a bit.
To frequent and to much internal rotation will hurt Your shoulder eventually, and also it has less power. It van only be usefull to reach a little deeper. But if you have short reach you need to step in anyway and if you have long reach you dont need it that much…
No because turning your punches also prevents elbow pain if you miss a punch if you don't believe me stick your thumb up in the air and just punch the air I'm sure you will most likely feel some discomfort or pain in your elbow now punch the air again but this time turn your wist over after your arm has gone out about 80% of the way if done correctly you should not feel pain in your elbow
Guys honest humble question as a boxing an martial art junior instructor wanting to learn: during those 2 extra inches but also in all the entire last phase, don't you disengage many major muscles by rotating in? The range is a couple of inches more but with almost no tension left, so are you really applying more strenght or is it just a matter of reach? Thank you!
the first time i am not 100% ok with your teaching. the rotating part is in the last part of the punch, and it is making you loose time both in going and coming back of the punch. so is it better to loose time for a smaller increase in protection? that last only a bit? because when the punch is coming back the shoulder fall. and also the over rotation is overstreching your torso muscle , making them more open to damages. Just my humble poit of view. thak you Gabriel for all the material you are sharing. you are an every day appointment in my days :)
might provide protection, but that inward rotation in your shoulder will damage your shoulder joint over time, you would never bench press with a position like that, neither would you do a push up like this
@@Loc6aby during a fight, where your opponent isn't just standing still like a sandbag, sure, there has never been an injured athlete out there, cause all of them have perfect form and control, and everything always goes as planned
You can definitely do it. I'd say those guys are quite experienced and probably very good at evading punches. This tip is more for beginners who may not have developed those relaxes or eyesight yet.
Who jabs with the thumb up? This is more of a karate or muay thai type of thing. Some boxers like tyson threw an up jab, basically slip and throw the jab up straight. It's not really common to throw the jab like some do hooks though at least not in boxing
Juan Manuel Márquez , Nacho Beristain has anninterview on which he explains why he teaches them to.use that jab for a fast approach, it's a fast jab not a strong one
@@GabrielVargaOfficial thanks for the reply! In your body shot video, it seems that you're hitting with your bottom 3 knuckles? Is there any time where you would hit with the bottom 3?
trying to convey this to my students and just posted the video to our university page. Thanks,Gabe
Welcome.
Thanks for sharing.🙏
I saw people doing this in sparing and I never understood why they did so. Now, I do.
Perfect. I love spreading some fight knowledge.
Thanks man.

Horizontal is enough I think
@@ved7816Yes it is
Thanks for explaining why the technique is done the way it is. It makes understanding and remembering so much easier.

0:55 to protect chin
For longer reach
3:10 turn over 90 degree
Adding ur shoulder to the equation adds so much power it's awesome
I really want to see you fight thensin nasukawa😃

Use both, without twisting you dont telegraph the punch at all. Use it as a special kind of jab
I don't see how the lat muscle could add power to the punch. It's a pulling muscle that retracts your elbow. Not a pushing muscle
@@paragon1782 scapula strength and contraction of the lat plays a big role in extension too.
@@clintj oh that's interesting I never knew that scapular extension depended on the lat. Always thought their main relationship was being a secondary muscle on a pull up etc
For me.. not twisting punch is a very quicker.. looking Marcus maidana his punch is very quicker and stronger..
This is gold! Thanks for sharing champ
i tore my rotator cuff from turning my punches over too much :/
Dont force any mouvement keep listent to your body your arm should move smoothly
I always thought that they do that to open cuts.🤯
I heard that too about boxing. Not sure how accurate it is. But getting extra protection and more distance sound a bit more achievable.
I think you should be telling people to roll their shoulder up, not to turn their fist because then it happens naturally, you can relax more and you're not wasting energy, and there's no unnecessary tension in your forearms pulling your fist back to a natural and stronger position.
Thanks for the tip
Great knowledge thanks....but what about guarding your chin throwing body shots

@@Loc6abyWait, you're a marching band boy?! Boy gtfoh you don't stand and bang with the sociopaths
@@landenjones9374true man
Thanks I always hurt my elbows
If you're throwing straight punches i thought it helps with sinking punches in because of the power line.
The thai fighters drop their punching line at the very end of the shot like you say.

So the "spin" from JoJo series is real.
It's everywhere around us.
GOOD BOXERS SAY NOT TO DO THIS BTW
How not to broke my arms when iam blocking kick
It's true we are all taught to turn you punches over till an anomaly comes along like a loma in boxing.
Awesome video! When throwing a jab do you push your hip into it? Noticed some people don't and was wondering if that is a better way to jab
Hmmm. I guess I do. But not putting effort into making it happen. It's just natural. Lead with the hip then the shoulder follows.
Awesome tip
Glad you think so!
Hi great video can you make one about closing distance i really Find it difficult
Nice video ty!!!
question doesnt that make ones shoulder prone to injury?
"But Jack Dempsey said!!!!"
Sagat would like to have a word with you😂
can this hurt the shoulder? it's in a compromised position turned over
Just find your chanel today, you giving some nice tips, congratulations!
P.s. your name sounds like a Romanian one👍🇷🇴
Thanks🙏
It's a Hungarian name🙂

You’re forgetting the fact that proper form and power control exists. Try taking knowledge in for a change
@@Loc6aby during a fight, where your opponent isn't just standing still like a sandbag, sure, there has never been an injured athlete out there, cause all of them have perfect form and control, and everything always goes as planned
@@MutsuKazuma imma just reference what I previously said I don’t see a reason for any further input
When is your next fight?
Thank you!
I'm watching these videos because I was to learn Karate.
You look like Bill Skarsgard if he had never gotten any sun.
I feel like I lose reach with my cross from being too stiff, any stretches you can recommend?
i recommend better foot work, core rotation workouts and hip and shoulder flexibility
Hopefully more people will tune into you instead of these want to be coaches. 😎👍
great technique but what is your thinking on using the jab with the thumb up, there re many fighters that jab with thumb up
You can definitely do it. I'd say those guys are quite experienced and probably very good at evading punches.
This tip is more for beginners who may not have developed those relaxes or eyesight yet.

Mayweather somtimes does it as well, specially when he throws from the hip since he has thebphily Shell guard
Which knuckles do you hit with? Good video
Thanks. I am for the index and middle finger knuckles.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial thanks for the reply! In your body shot video, it seems that you're hitting with your bottom 3 knuckles? Is there any time where you would hit with the bottom 3?
Do you turn them on hooks as well
Sometimes yes. But generally I prefer hooks with the thumb facing up.
DONT TURN HOOKS OVER THO
Just learn this on my own.had to look for some confirmation it's confirmed
Nnganou and alex piera dont do it and are ko machines
nice
None of this is true.
DUDE IM SORRY BUT THIS IS SOME BULL
