training video roadmap/where to start?
Training
Posting in the MMA section because it's the only one with any activity. Let me know if I should post elsewhere.
I'm pretty new to striking overall. Signed up for the Striker's Guide when it first came out to learn a bit about it. Started out with the Grappler's Guide when I started learning BJJ just before the pandemic hit and it helped me through a good portion of that and I still learn from it. I can't make it to the gym where I train BJJ for kickboxing classes so I've been working on striking on Friday afternoons in my garage with my heavy bag using the boxing videos here. I do have a training partner with some experience on very very rare occasions.
I'd like to expand what I do on Fridays a bit and I'd also like to have a plan for ramping up solo training should we get more lockdowns. The basic goal is to teach myself as much as I can. I know that it's best to have a coach but I was curious if there was a "best practices" path or some sort of roadmap to follow with the videos here to go from basically zero striking knowledge to some kind of understanding.
Thanks!

I am not a big philosopher but what i would do is roadwork 3days a week to shadowboxing the drills Which i would see here. Shadowboxing would develop your footwork coordination speed and stamina. And if a partner is occasionally available i would practice the combos and info i see on SG wiyh him(drilling /padding). And do keep your focus on defense And footwork because without these nonw can be a. Good striker. Peace✌️

I usually say start with boxing, then build on that.
