Training Log: Entry 448

Back in the boxing gym.

Coach pointed out my habit of stuffing the jab, so we worked it on the bag and on mitts for a couple of rounds.  Remember to bend at the knee pointing towards the opponent, not angled away.  Remember to drag that rear foot to follow the lead step when pairing a 1-2.  Remember to keep that rear foot anchored when throwing a 2-3.  Don't throw too hard when drilling, 60% is fine, keep speed up.  Hook at the target, not away from it.  Relax those shoulders.

I'm throwing down, not up.  Target the head with shots, not just straight from the torso. 

Did a better job of hitting with the right knuckles instead of the pinky on my left hand.  Keep this habit going.
