The Boxing Studio

I forgot to put this basic catching drill up from earlier this year. Two of my advanced girls Maureen catching and Jackie in the white gloves. Yes I forgot to also mention Maureen is also a bonafide Brainiac.

Maureen is killing the double-end ball. She has only been working with it for a short period of time. Guess how old she is.

If you want to know what it means to be BLOWEN AWAY watch this. Call me crazy but turn this world over to women like this...

Does this sound about right?

This headline does not come as a surprise to me. I’m sure the women I know would also say NO DUH. I would be curious to know what the response to this article is by the significant others out there. Women leaders are doing a disproportionately great job at handling the pandemic. So why aren't there more of them?... https://www.cnn.com//women-government-leaders-c/index.html

There is a God. I just read Harvey Weinstein got 23 years at sentencing and faces more charges elsewhere. Hope they send him where the nasty bad boys will hurt him! Or better yet I have a few women at the Gym who could give him a really good Tune-Up. One that would have him eating through a straw the the rest of his useless life.

Pat spotted this and thought it would be a great Valentine’s Day/Birthday present for our grand daughter. I thought you girls would get a good laugh.

Gees because I was intent on taking the video I didn’t realize Maureen was hitting the 80 lb bag like a freight train.

Maureen demonstrates very nice double end ball technique. Her timing and accuracy just keeps improving

My daughter has been hiding this video clip from me for about 5 years. This was when she was about 4, Clara now 9 going on 35 and this is why I do what I do

The champ says I’ll hit you so hard with my left you’ll be begging for this Right and when you wake up your clothes will be out of style

It's mostly guys that ask me why I only will work with women athletes. You have to be brain dead to even ask that question. Well here's a hint USWST

Maureen is learning some very advanced combination and slip techniques. Don’t you think she should take a bow

Watching in disbelief as the first image I ever made of a black hole was in the process of being reconstructed.

This is proof positive of what I just posted earlier on my fb page. This brilliant young woman using big data analytics and cloud architure provided the key to unlock what her other male Brainiac colleagues were trying to do. Thank you Katie Bouman, you gave us the sequel to Hidden Figures.

This was Maureen‘s first opportunity to work with a real professional boxing coach. She’s advanced to such a level I’m unable to critique her, so I felt it would be good if she had an opportunity to work with a professional coach. He was very pleased to meet and work with her. Saratoga has a very good boxing program sponsored by the city of Saratoga.

Maureen and Arica, two of my Gold Star girls showing off some of their speed bag talents. Arica is just getting back in the gym after recovering from a hand injury.

The two sisters Maureen in yellow, and big sister Kristin smoke’n the speed bag. A little sibling competition between them.

Kristin is mastering hand-over-hand speed bag, look how smoothly she switches between hand-over-hand and double strike. Owwww...

Maureen and Kristin (sisters) running through an offense, defense slip drill. This is the first time they have run this drill together.

Four inches taller and no weight gain this is the first time Maureen has been back to the gym in almost a year. She’s been busy with school and a full schedule with her job at Great Escape this past summer and fall. Aside from improving from an already very accomplished young athletes Maureen has grown into this magnificent young Women. Added to this she’s also a brainiac, I understand her GPA is into the stratosphere. She’s the team leader of her robotics group with their first competition scheduled for mid December.

Kristin giving an excellent demonstration of working out on the 60 pound water filled bag. Many of the girls, at first don’t like the double-end-ball or the 60 pound water filled heavy bag, but after they get some instruction on how to work with it they come to love it. See how well she is controlling it.

I meant to put this up a couple of weeks ago. This is Kristin smack in the hell out of the double end ball. These drills are really great to develop timing and agility Kristen’s been with me for quite some time but she’s only recently been coming very consistently sometimes twice a week and she usually works out with her sister or a good friend of hers

The young women boxers are getting Younger and Younger and Better and Better. Make no mistake these young women can demand respect and back it up, as well they should.

I am running a slip drill with Kristin. Kristin is back in the gym after several months absence and she is doing really great.

As you can see we had a busy day at the gym. all the girls are working really hard these days. Not sure whats going on, they must be getting an early jump on shaping up for next summer.

This is the first time for Kristin and her sister Maureen doing jab cross controlled sparing.

I should have put this up months ago. This was Nancy and her daughter Kristin running a mitt drill for the first time and did a great job.

Hay Ladies take a look at this video

Ladies, this is some very good Tips. What is it I say time and time again (no lunch in between). I know it's hard to sink in and most of you hate working the jab, but its no excuse. Thanks, nice demonstration Jess, at Knockout Women's Boxing Club

I came across this article regarding the type and importance of hand wraps. It's a Good article, but stick with at least 180 inch Mexican Style wraps (spandex and cotton fabric). See the hand-wrapping Video in time tine. http://www.livestrong.com//354518-hand-wraps-vs-neoprene-/

Don't let the smiles fool you, both of these gals are killers. Ashley with the white gloves and Renee in red. Ashley is so fast she can turn the lights out in a room and be out the door before it goes dark. Renee hits so hard I'm going start calling her "Mike". Lori Sue is also responsible for these two great finds. I love these girls.

Thanks to Lori Sue on the left in black, we have two great athletes and really great additions to the Boxing Studio. Let me introduce our first sisters Lorinda and Marissa Huntington. Lorinda in the green and Marissa in the orange. Lorinda is a phys-ed teacher and Marissa is an undergrad Physics major. Even though Marissa is the Physics major they both understand, for all you science majors, what "F=MA" means. They both have right hands like they were shot out of a cannon. It seems all of the new girls are hitting like Mike Tyson, ether that or i'm getting old.

Hay ladies help me come up w a name for her

How to wrap your hands for boxing!

Who do you know who likes to stay in shape?

OMG, See what "Two Gun" does to speed bags. This is the result of Pam Wehrmans Sissons perfection of her now famous "Hop Skip and a Punch". As you can see, it has been banned in 27 states. A spokes person at Everlast stated "we have only been able to replicate this kind of damage by using a freight train traveling at a speed in excess 65 MPH"

Alexandra Twyman improved

Hay Ladies guess how old Maria is.

Improved Arica Gordon on the speed bag

Hay Ladies, say Hi to Caitlin Herren one of our newest Studio members

I’ve got to admit, this is very effective in development of muscle memory for a hook. I use the motion of the elbow coming up as if you were doing the start of the front crawl stroke. I like your drill better because you can hit the bag with your forearm repetitively in a snap motion. I inform my girls also that it is illegal in boxing unless its part of a missed hook follow through.

Hay Ladies, say Hi to Breanna Miller one of our newest Studio members

Hay, Ladies what do you think of our newest member of the Studio, (my grand daughter Clara Beatrice says). "Hummm, I'm not sure what to do with this thing, but watch out once I figure it out.

Once again Jess Storch, your description and demonstration of a drop slip is superb. I find it works wonders to constantly remind the girls to keep their eyes on my chin when I’m catching and running these slip drills.

You Ladies have got to watch this (the first of two matches). It was a real match for charity between Stefan Raab a German talk show host and a German womens world champion Regina Halmich. He was reported to be a pretty good athlete and did some training for the fight. I first saw this several years ago and just recently found it again on YouTube. She really beat the guy from pillar to post. I sure as hell wouldn't want to tangle w her. I have all I can do to handle you girls.:-) BTW he out weighs her by about 100 lbs

Another perfect day in Paradise, a bugs eye view from the pool. The sky is so blue it hurts your eyes.

Hi Ladies, say hello to Alexandra, our newest member to The Boxing Studio Alexandra comes to us with a skill set she learned at a boxing club she joined while a student in Montreal, cant you tell. BTW don't let the smile fool you.

Very nice, Jess - your demonstration is super! Muhammed Ali was a master at moving and throwing a punch...I think he would drop a "Like" on your page! Jess, I added the complete text of your Video: This week's Tip Tuesday is all about how to add footwork into the combo Jab-Jab-Cross. Remember moving as you punch ups the effectiveness of your boxing training.

Free style workout on a 60 lb. water filled Heavy Bag

-Why Boxing as a fitness activity- Doug Ward, an accomplished Boxing Coach, Personal Trainer and entrepreneur provides an excellent explanation. Not everyone wants to get punched in the nose while they’re getting in shape, but there’s no denying the positive benefits that a boxing-style workout can provide. Boxing moves work the entire body, they highly engage the core, they require muscular and cardiovascular strength and they demand constant focus....Continue reading
