How To

How to Stand in the Correct Boxing Stance

Boxing’s foundation begins with the right stance. Stand with your legs shoulder-width apart. Your non-dominant shoe should be facing forward. Your back foot should be angled at 45 degrees. Also, distribute your weight evenly. Hold your gloves above your chin, bend your knees a little, and tuck in your elbows. You can remain agile by standing on your toes. Your body must be relaxed but also ready to move quickly, and to throw punches.
