totally agree with here.

One of the greatest benefits of boxing isn’t just getting fitter, stronger, or learning how to throw a punch. It’s the level of presence that boxing demands from you.

The moment you put those gloves on, everything else fades away.

The bills, the stress, the emails, the problems, the worries about tomorrow.

None of it matters.

You enter a flow state where your mind becomes completely absorbed in the task at hand. You’re not thinking about the past. You’re not worrying about the future. You’re simply present.

And in a world full of distractions, that’s a beautiful thing.

There’s not many activities that force you to be this present.

When you put those gloves on, the world turns off.

The liver shot is one of, if not the most devastating punches you can land in Boxing.

When the liver gets hit in the right spot with the right amount of force, it can completely shut the body down and force your opponent to surrender. We’ve seen countless Boxing fights end from a brutal shot to the liver.

So here are 3 combinations you can use to set it up 👊

Combo 1:
Jab, Rear Uppercut, Lead Rip

Combo 2:
Double Lead Hook, Lead Rip

Combo 3:
Jab, Cross, Lead Hook, Lead Rip

Give these a go during your Shadow Boxing, Bag Work, Pad Work and eventually Sparring.

The key to a good liver shot isn’t just power. It’s timing, placement and setting it up correctly 🥊

Communication and deep connection are two of the most important parts of a healthy and thriving relationship.

One thing that’s really stood out to me over the last 12 months when going out for dinner with my fiancée is how many couples sit there scrolling on their phones, barely speaking, barely connecting, and when they’re not on their phones, they’re just looking around the room instead of truly being with each other.

It’s a reminder to all of us to check ourselves.

If we truly love someone, shouldn’t we want to deeply know them? To understand them? To be fully present with them?

When you’re with your partner, are you actually there?
Are you communicating?
Are you curious about who they are and who they’re becoming?

Or are you simply existing beside each other because it feels less lonely?

Healthy relationships don’t just happen.
They require presence, communication, intention, and responsibility for the habits we create every single day.
