|  SHADOW BOXING WITH RESISTANCE BANDS
Ok so the other day I picked up some circular restistance bands kinda like these: http://images.bizrate.com/resize?sq=160&uid=1733936335
So I was wondering if it was a good idea to shadowbox with them? It's almost like shadowboxing with weights. It provides resistance to your punches so it can make you stronger and help with your punching power. I made a video of me using them but the quality is kinda low but I could still post it if you want.

I think there great for conidtioning, you can get a great burn in your shoulers and they will make your punches faster as well as more powerful.
But shadowboxing is meant to work on technique, and movement. As opposed to power. Having the bands on you would not be able to move or practice foot work.

I was doing it and I got plenty of footwork in. Yes I realize it does cut back on your technique a bit but if you are just trying to help with strengthening your arms to make faster/stronger punches I find this quite effective.

i think that they would do for resistance training, if you look at shanes video uploads on youtube and look for the juno workout video, it shows him pushing them away from him.

It is very excellent way t train and build your muscles, skill, and co-ordination for your punching power! I have 2 times the pairs that look simillar to that, in my gym.
