Before you can execute skills well at full speed, you need to slow things down and build out your capability using clean boxing training drills. In these boxing training drills we are learning the 'whip hook', sacrificing power for speed and building out more effectiveness for our long range work.
There are 6 simple boxing training drills that we work:
- Static feet with 3 shots
- Back hand hook - advancing lead hand hook
- Back hand hook - retreating lead hand hook
- Back hand hook - pivot lead hand hook (advance/retreat option)
- Angled side step with back hand hook
- Punching/footwork synchronisation
Focused work on boxing training drills like this will make you better at boxing...surprise surprise.

Thank you, Coach Frand Sands. I’m very blessed to have subscribed to your YouTube channel. I have commented on your excellent videos before since I am currently a competitive boxer (with all honesty and humility, a 6X Champion Masters Amateur Boxer). I commented on your excellent analysis of Oleksandr Usyk since I am a southpaw boxer. I like your style of teaching and coaching. You teach the importance of being fundamentally sound! In fact, a great words of wisdom that you said from one of your videos is, “Slow is smooth;smooth is fast.” In fact, I mentioned that to other of my fellow boxers that you practice the fundamentals (example- properly unleashing the hook 🥊) slow at first yet perfect. Then, after you successfully master unleashing (throwing) the hook punch, you execute that technique faster and eventually faster. Thank you and God bless you ALWAYS, Coach Frand Sands. 🥊🥊🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💖✝️

Thank you sir

Good lesson coach thanks
-
Honestly the best coach on all of YouTube. Was wondering if you planned on doing any videos on moving forward and punching (blitzing) or how to deal with overly defensive fighters who use distance very well. Truly appreciate all the time you put in to sharing your knowledge with us aspiring fighters.

You are clearly a great coach, Fran. You seem accessible, friendly and very well informed/knowledgeable about your subject. You care about the welfare of your boxers as shown in your ebook when mentioning avoiding too many cumulative hard blows to the head. The way you’ve broken down your book and videos shows really good thought about the teaching/learning too. Wish you weren’t 270+ miles away but glad to have your vids all the same 😁
