5.0 out of 5 stars A Complete Boxing Package! A++, February 10, 2005

This review is from: "Ultimate Boxing Lessons" COMPLETE 8 DVD BOXED SET, Starring Boxing Coach Christopher Getz (DVD)

I recently received the Christopher Getz Ultimate Boxing 8 DVD Boxed Set and on first pass I am impressed. There is so much information it took me over a week just to view them all. I have over 40 pages of notes after watching just half of them. Getz is a very skilled and knowledgeable teacher who is never boring as he breaks down all the techniques and strategies in a way you can easily learn them. The lessons are very well structured and all DVDs compliment the others. Everything is covered from equipment to basic and advanced techniques so I must say this series offers a complete package on Boxing which is what I have been searching for and finally found with this set. The best thing is besides the physical routines, the lessons open your eyes as to how sophisticated and technical the sport of boxing really is. Boxing is a game of chess and to succeed Coach Getz teaches you to be a smart fighter as well as a fit fighter. The series is a total package with hundreds of techniques, tips and strategies that can make anyone who studies them a complete fighter. A++ Very good investment!

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent comprehensive instruction, January 24, 2008

This review is from: "Ultimate Boxing Lessons" COMPLETE 8 DVD BOXED SET, Starring Boxing Coach Christopher Getz (DVD)

As noted by other reviewers, the production values are not that great for a set this expensive, but the instruction and drills are priceless. Christopher Getz provides comprehensive instruction in boxing with HEAVY emphasis on fundamentals throughout. The breakdowns for movement, punches, combinations and defense are solid and well taught. Each volume in the 8 DVD set builds from the previous one, so I highly recommend the full set over the individual volumes.

The lessons themselves are top notch and worth 5 stars. Amateur DVD production knocks it down to 4.

5.0 out of 5 stars VERY thorough and well done, outstanding, May 31, 2006

The production values are not like those of The Lord of the Rings movies, but the picture and sound are clear enough, and the content is excellent. Getz explains all the facets of boxing thoroughly, and everything is illustrated with excellent analogies (useful when you're in the ring and can only remember a few key points) and demonstrations. He is particularly good on the mechanics of footwork and punching. Absolutely worth the money.
