5 Common Lead Hook Mistakes: Get More Knockouts! 

Dog was like: enough talk. play with me now human!

So yeah.... punches and stuff. Lets talk about that dog though.

1.Throw close range 2.Keep both hands by chin 3.Throw with entire body 4.Keep the hook arm bent through entire R.O.M 5.Throw from a squared stance, avoid over rotating

Great videos, Shane. I don't belong to a gym or anything; just boxing for fitness. Your videos are a huge help. I like how you break the biomechanics down and make it easy for beginners like me to practice proper form.

as usual the Dog steals the show

3:05 perfect timing

I know this was 5 years ago but I’m glad you mentioned the turning of the foot when you come in for that left hook. You can generate the same amount of power without turning the foot, as long as you turn your hips. Great advise 👍

Plot twist: Shane was just lip synthing and his dog was giving us tips

who else keeps looking at the dog

3:07 the dog did a funny sound lol

i recently started with muay thai. its fun and addicting but also frustrating at times when youre annoyed with your own failures, but your videos are a huge help and motivation for me. thanks for that.

I like these tips. I haven't done Muay Thai for that long and practicing these tips makes me feel like an expert. Keep it up, Shane.

five common stockon slap mistakes

4:30 doggy wants to play! how dare you ignore her lol

I’m new to Muay Thai and your videos are absolute gold. I’ve massively improved every single move by watching your videos. Thanks!

4:20 That is the cutest hype man I have ever seen

Yo Shane I have a suggestion for your next vid: could u make a vid where you show us how to block/dodge/avoid body shots?

How to Fight Like CM Punk: 3 MMA Techniques

Thankyou so much, very useful, my hooks were always feeling awkward and slow in comparison to my straight shots, but I instantly improved my hooks using this video

Thank you very much for this post! In my fitness class I see now what I’m doing wrong and why it hurts! For my next class I’m going to take it easy, use proper form, even if they’re yelling for me to pick up the pace 😅 I really want to do it correctly and let my arms and shoulders heal from what I was doing incorrectly!

I just wanted to thank you for posting such informative, concise and well-made videos. I have been living and trainnig in Japan for 15+ years and I share your videos with everyone at the gym...of course I need translate them but you are getting quite popular here! Keep up the excellent work!

Shane!! This little serious of common mistakes has helped me so much! I can't afford to attend the gym I use to for muay thai. So I've been working on getting better at my universities gym. The kicking mistakes really helped me out, I saw improvements almost instantly with technique and power. Thanks and please keep them coming!

Thanks Shane. I've been subscribe to you for a long time until recently I've started boxing and muay Thai and I've learnt that all your videos are very precious to me.

Great video! It helped me to better understand things I do automatically and take for granted so that I can better communicate those to my students, and I picked up a couple details on the ranged hook that I hadn't thought about before. Thanks!

#5 the Mike Tyson punch (the video game) from a hook instead of uppercut lol. Great video as always man.

dog is like fuck your video shane i wanna play

The turning hand when hook punching from too far away actually came to me instinctively it wasn't until I watched this video is when I realised it! Your body really adapts when it knows how it wants to hit

I sprained my wrist on a hook in training a few weeks back - thanks for the breakdown! Making the adjustments presently :D

Your dog being in the background is making me laugh man.

Glad you left the bit with the dog in there. Shane OG as hell!

Love how you get right to it in second 1.!!! Don't like videos that spend 2 minutes telling you what they are about to do !!! Love all the tips and great to see your success with this channel !

I love the advice on the Fedor style long hooks. That’s been bugging me forever and I have a bad habit I have to get rid of now! Appreciate it!

Best fight tutorials hands down

SHANE! I cannot pay attention! That dog is too cute!

Shane. I like how you make new learner aware of their mistakes and give idea to do it correctly. Love you and God bless you and your family. Keep blossoming like rose. Well wisher from Phoenix, Arizona.

This is super helpful. I'm planning to get into FitXR for the Oculus Quest, but after watching some reviews I noticed one reviewer say the game doesn't have a good tutorial on proper form. Decided to do my own research and it led me here. Thanks for the tips!

Dude, tell us about your dog! It's so cute! Also, I really love these 5 mistakes videos, very helpful and answered a lot of questions I had about certain moves.

I like the way the dog just wanted to play ball.

Really appreciate these videos, Ik you posted it Hella long ago but as someone who can't pay for boxing lessons yet it's really nice just to get some practice before hand

Love this guy. I’ve just started out in Muay Thai and these tips are helping a lot!

Could you please do a video on weight training and martial arts? I see some things about only doing calisthenics so you don't get bulky and you can be more agile, or to not go up weight classes, but then I see some ufc guys benching and deadlifting and stuff. I want to know what I should do to prepare myself for mma when I start at the local one.

Dog showing some crazy bjj skills

Thank you for this I've been looking a video about hooks because I'm having trouble with it but now I saw this and it really helps me ty Shane!

Thank you for teaching this. I've had to teach so many people this stuff at the gym to prevent them from hurting themselves. I've been showing people your videos. It helps me as well as them. :D

Seriously homie, I'm a dog lover, I am so distracted by your dog in the beginning. I wanna jump down to the floor and play with him!! But I love your content, keep up the great work!!

The dog are probably the grand master,and he saw you doing something wrong. Dog:"Hold this,let me teach him some moves" Those are some good tips,and I didn't knew about the rotating your first when further is the distance.Nice video,man.

I've been trying to get into boxing recently but since I'm a 19 year old college student I haven't really had the time or money to take classes so videos like this have been really helpful, thanks for the great content. Also, really cute dog.

Good stuff bro! Just subscribed. I'm 54 years young and have been training some mma and loving it doing mainly muaytai and grappling at moment and combining it which functional training and weight training. Have gained a lot of conditioning I never had in my life and wish now I got into it a long time ago anyway better late then never! Keep up the good work man! Just one more thing, looks like your dog wants to have a go at the end there!

make a video on head movement

Fight tips for *underdog* literally😀

You rock bro!! I watch your videos every day I have my first MMA fight March 5th I have been putting in the work! And these videos mean a lot!! Hope one day I can thank you in person at the gym! 👊👊

Great video for beginners, I didn’t learn anything from the video that I didn’t already know, besides maybe that I didn’t need to pivot the back foot on the cross, Pivoting that foot on the cross at this point for me is not something I ever even come close to thinking about, but I know I do it. I believe it though, makes sense that you don’t have to do it, I always kind of felt people over analyze that twisting part, cigarette-outting thing, it’s probably just a cue for beginners as you said. But this would have been very helpful for me when I started so many years ago, so despite not learning anything I at least know this is a good channel now. Keep up the good work, you’re a good teacher.

Hey, now I know where that logo comes from.

lol, had to watch twice because I realized I was just watching the dog the whole time

Really loving these common mistake videos. Would really love to see one for the right straight punch as well. That would complete the picture for beginners.

Thanks loads for that. I'm researching the lead hook just now and have been wandering youtube looking for useful info. That dog! Gorgeous.

number 2 i instantly thought of nick diaz

Awww thats a beautiful dog i guess he wants to train too lol But nice movement dude you got skills

Shane you the man. I’d love to train w you!! You’re a gifted instructor!!! Martial arts has helped me w my addictions so I really want to go full force into it ASAP.

Really good job, always focused and not distracted by the surroundings. Oh yeah and shane did a good job as well

4:18 dog was ready to attack xD cute dog

That husky is so cute. :D

I was always confused about the position of the palm/hand... Thanks for clearing that up!

Am a begginer boxer and i love your videos man.. Keep it up

4:20 the dog even rolled the ball over to him😂😂

shane knows so many things, he gives the best tips. he knows how to strike and block and all the other things.. sometimes i think, shane is the best fighter of all time..

Great stuff. Espec. calling out the non-necessary foot pivots.

Thanks for tips. Just ran into your channel by chance. Keep killing it!

Hey Shane, What do you think of throwing a hook with the palm down, anything wrong with it? I was taught that it's safer for your wrist that way. I sprained my wrist throwing it the traditional way when my fist was wasn't flush on the bag and slipped against the bag and jammed my wrist.

Man you gotta stop putting Sully in the video my eyes look at him all the time love the tips tho keep it up and love you and could you do this uplouadind hour all the time cause i leave europe and i wanna comment early in order to you reply

hahaha nice recovery at the end when the dog piped up. Great tips brother, if I have a question, before asking I just look up your video's. 100% of the time so far you've had the answer.

In just found your channel this week. I've been wanting to learn more about boxing. Mostly for working out. However I did want to have the information to have good form and be able to defend myself if that ever became necessary. I've definitely learned a lot so far. It's great that I can keep comijng back to check on if I'm having correct form

4:20 *_Hey, watch that ball dude!_* 😂😂😂

"The dog in the manger"😂😂

Great video, so much info in a fast, easily digested format. Thanks and kudos- facility and pup also look great

I'm the wrong side of 40,working a punch pad I made out in the yard to keep me supple and mobile. I've got the jab Cross down with nice quick retraction to guard, but my lead hook sucks big time. My footwork is all wrong. I keep relying on stepping into the punch but it's the wrong body mechanics for the job. I've even tried slip and counter with hook like Mike tyson but I'm no iron Mike. I'm going to watch this video over and over, then work on putting my hips into the lead hook. Thank you Shane for making this video. Its been a blessing for me and I look forward to improving my lead hook 😁👍

Shane is anakin skywalkers dad

who would dislike fight tips

The doggy made it even better.

hell yeah man. ur vids are so helpful-- also ur dog is too precious

A few questions I have: 1. Is it ok to drop the hand I'm doing the punch with to generate more power? I tend to naturally do this but it seems to not slow me down. 2. Where should the punch stop?

hahaha i like shanes dog cool bro

4 months in the UFC gym and no couch mentioned those tips. I have been doing it all wrong. Good video.

Amazing thank you, was doing hooks today and my wrists are aching, don’t think I was keeping my elbows bent or at 90 degrees! Thank you 🙏🏼

five common knee strikes mistakes

u might snap ur knee if u missed the target while not rotating ur leading foot

Thanks for the help Shane and love the husky!

outstanding, thank you. that also solved the mystery of seeing mma guys throw that strange looking long range hook. now it makes sense why they turn it over so much. very cool

The dog is just chilling there saying “this aint the first time I aint scared of the sound lol”

The dog is training with the ball to beat his opponent (neighbours pitbull) and he's like :"I wanna bite him like this and then poke him in the eye with my teeth and then......"

I"m new to the sport and looking for tips on form. Great video and clear explanation, not to mention your gorgeous dog! Thanks for the tips!

Instant improvement. Thanks Shane👍

Holy shit that like and dislike ratio

Who else imagines the target they dont like in the head how ur gonna hit him lol

Your videos have taught me a lot..now i train in person with a professional boxer and says he can tell i have experience

"You kicked my toy, bro"

2:29 detonay wilder

Great tip also on releasing the arm late, so you are open for minimal time. I see a lot of pros that don't do this.

I loved your explanations on this video, awesome! And I loved the dog as well! :-)
