Private Boxing Instruction From Today's Top Trainers


Boxing training can be frustrating. Usually, you'll pay to use a boxing gym -- where you have access to the facilities and the shared equipment -- but you won't get much in the way of instruction except for group classes that are more like fitness workouts than they are skill training.

If you want some one-on-one time with a boxing trainer, you have to make a deal with him -- which can be surprisingly expensive -- and maybe even cut the gym in for a percentage.

This can quickly add up, and unless you are a professional or have hopes of turning pro at some point, the costs can become prohibitive.

Of course, if you're like most of us, you know that you could be much better than you are now if you only had access to some private boxing instruction.

And while you're dreaming about what might be, you might as well wish for a world-class trainer like Freddie Roach or Kenny Weldon to be the one who gives you these lessons. Imagine how much you could learn from an instructor of that caliber; you'd be unstoppable!

Guess what? You don't have to put your dreams on the back burner and settle for second-best!

With video coaching, you can have private boxing lessons with Freddie Roach and others, right in front of your TV. These days, your DVD player is almost as important as your local boxing gym because it is the key to learning the tricks and techniques that can turn you from a dud into a stud.

In the sport of boxing, information can be hard to come by. Most trainers hoard their knowledge and tricks; they only give it to the fighters who show massive amounts of potential, or to those who are willing to pay good money and know how to keep their mouths shut. Trainers know that their information is like money in the bank, and they keep as much control over it as possible.

But now, thanks to the internet and to online retailers like Amazon.com, you can buy boxing lessons from the world's best trainers for less than the price of a session with the trainer down at your local boxing gym.

Did you know that you can get a one-hour lesson with Freddie Roach for around $10? How can you pass up a chance like that?

What's more: you can find lessons tailored to your skill level. It doesn't matter if you're an absolute beginner or a fighter who is ready to learn some advanced moves; there are boxing instruction DVDs that are perfect for you.

So don't be afraid to set your sights a little higher. Why waste time and opportunity going through the motions at the local boxing gym when you can learn from the best? You'll still want to go to the gym, but now it'll be to work out and to spar rather than just keeping your eyes and ears open and hoping to pick up some tips from the ones who are better than you.

Take charge of your sport and make yourself the one who others look to for information.
