Shadow Boxer Freestyle Punching with Ex-Royal Marines



Hi all I know we haven't posted for a while. We've just been so busy. But we've got lots of exciting stuff happening that you will soon hear about. Here is a clip from an informal session we did with some ex-royal marines and and ex-amateur boxer. We will post some different exercises soon. This will add to your current repertoire of exercises.

A 40 Yr Old Woman says Shadow Boxer Improves Breasts, Waist, Arm, Bottom and Thighs...What can I say?

I bought the Shadow Boxer belt in August 2010. I am a hard working woman in my 40's and wanted a whole body workout but never get time to go to a gym and like many people have bought countless bits of rubbish over the years and so really was not expecting much. I loved the Shadow Boxer from the first moment I use it, and noticed results immediately, and planned to use it for the rest of my life.

Your service and product range is fantastic and I love the fact that you are a dedicated group of enthusiasts.

I think most women see the Shadow Boxer as a boxing training programme only they do not see its true potential for them – which is a shame. I bought one for my friend’s birthday and she loved it. For women there can be no better workout as it tackles all the problem areas in one workout and it works!!!!!!!!!

I do the 20min workout every morning using the light arm bands but have now started using the medium bands.

My breasts and waist showed immediate improvement.
Arms, bottom and thighs, 2 months later I noticed big changes, my body is changing shape and becoming toned and improving drastically.

The other noticeable effects are fitness and energy, I now take the stairs always two at a time and running for a train is a piece of cake. I can eat what I want and still lose weight. What better testimonial could women want??? All women everywhere should be doing this!!!!!!

Best wishes
Annie

Paul Briggs challenges Danny Green


Shadow Boxer's very own PAUL "Hurricane" Briggs is back - determined to give fight fans the one blockbuster he could never organise on The Contender.

The Daily Telegraph can reveal Briggs, the bruising light-heavyweight who retired in 2007, is on the cusp of inking "a fight Australia wants to see" against IBO world cruiserweight champion Danny Green.

"Twice I've tried to fight Danny in the past and twice I've been denied.

"OK, so he wasn't dodging me, he legitimately had other things on his radar. But he doesn't have anything else on right now.

"So let's get it on. Because I know there's been talk about Green and Anthony Mundine but, mate, I commentated that fight and it was ordinary. Why would people want to see a rematch? This is about two natural punchers going at it ... it's a guaranteed ball-tearer."

A champion kickboxer in his youth, Briggs twice fought Polish brawler Tomasz Adamek for the WBC light-heavyweight title in bloody, brutal encounters. And the orthodox fighter, who most recently worked as a trainer on reality TV series The Contender, said he had no concerns about taking on Green despite his three years spent outside the ring.

"I'm a natural puncher. I'll be 80 and knocking blokes out," he said.

"You look at those Adamek fights, I tortured the guy. Gave him two massive fights and he's since gone on to become a three-time world champion, a bloke who has slayed them all.

"As for getting in shape, that won't be a problem either. That's the difference between natural fighters and those who train for it. Natural fighters, guys like myself or Garth Wood, we can jump out of bed any day of the week and be ready to go. (of course he also has a secret weapon to help get fighting fit...but then we would say that!)

"So I don't need any warm up fights. Don't need time to get myself organised. I can be in a car tomorrow headed for Sydney if we can get this deal across the line and do something positive for Australian fight fans."

"I mean, for the past couple of years I've had people asking me to come out of retirement. Saying 'when will you fight Choc or Danny Green?

"That's why I'm doing everything in my power to get this across the line. Sure, I'm taking this fight for me, no one else. But if there's one thing I've learnt about Aussie sports fans it's that they love seeing two Aussies go hard at it. Who wouldn't?"

Female Customers feedback on Shadow Boxer

Straight after I wrote the previous post on 'Can Shadow Boxer be Used by Women' I got this email from a customer and wanted to share it with you all.

"Have been using the Shadow Boxer VRT2 now, pretty much every day for 13 weeks, and have really noticed changes, many changes with overall health...especially using every day, just using the workout on the DVD has made one HELLAVA DIFFERENCE!!!!!! . Have worked up to using the 'Hard' resistance straps. Guess the next step is the Power Punch Leg Accelerator......Thank You"......Karen ffrench, (Older than forty, I didn't want to over step the mark by publishing Karen's age...I hope this is ok)

Another female customer was so enthusiastic about the product that she excitedly rang me up and proposed a slogan for us "THINK IT, DO IT, DONE IT". What Rosealind went onto explain was how Shadow Boxer was so easy to use was that all you had to do was think about using it, pick it up and before you know it you've finished a quick workout, but that it feels like a workout that was considerably longer!

Now remember, these people have not been paid to say these things and I know it may even sound as though I've embellished what they said...I promise you I have faithfully reproduced what they have said or emailed me. I even asked them to send in little video clips of themselves talking about how Shadow Boxer has helped them but, as expected they were both a bit bashful. So this is the only way I can pass on what they have said.

They demonstrate in my eyes that whether you're a professional fighter or someone wanting to lose a bit of weight or someone wanting to get a bit fit...that with some effort and determination you can achieve great results. SO I HOPE YOU SEE SHADOW BOXER IS NOT JUST FOR THE BOYS.

KEEP TRAINING

Can the Shadow Boxer VRT be used by Women?

We get many women that buy the Shadow Boxer VRT. Ironically, male fighters and women want the same thing!


  • To tone up without putting too much muscle bulk on
  • Burn Fat
  • Improve fitness & endurance
  • Resistance training minimise injuries which may happen using weights
  • Flexible & compact device you can take any where
  • Improve punching to keep your other half in check! (This last one's a joke)
Punching is a really good all round exercise especially for saggy arms as punching against resistance tones the triceps. But make no mistake it's not just about the upper body. If you punch correctly (see Paul Briggs lesson our DVD) this actually tones up your abs, waist line, legs and your bum, as you have to twist from the hips and push from the legs to drive punches forward. Doing this repeatedly will take inches of your tummy, tone your bottom and thigh muscles also.

Finally there are lots of other exercises on our blog that we are adding to when we get a chance. See our previous post on Reverse Crunches in March 09 for instance. This the best exercise for lower abs (often neglected) which encourages better posture AND strengthens your abs both which make you look a lot slimmer and in fact reduces the chance of lower back pain due to poor posture.

Finally, remember this basic equation...there is no quick fix to weight loss. If you use more calories than you consume, you will lose weight. Shadow Boxer ups the calories you burn in a fun way and so the pounds should fly off, if you use it regularly.

Good luck

Manny Pacquaio Uses Shadow Boxer

We introduced the 'PACMAN' to Shadow Boxer back in Decemeber 2007 courtesy of Tino Ceberano. Manny's hand speed is already legendary but being the perfectionist that he is continually looks for ways to improve his training both from a fitness and fightng perspective. Obviously, our commiserations to Ricky Hatton who unfortunately felt the full force of Manny speed and power.
