Training Log: Entry 453

Back in the boxing gym.  Did 4 rounds on the big heavy bag working progressively jab, jab cross, step jab cross hook, step jab cross hook.  Focusing on getting that full range off the jab, stepping on the cross, and hooking with the elbow high instead of low, and at the target instead of away.  Also making sure to keep shoulders relaxed and body turned away from the target instead of straight on.

Did 4 rounds on the double end bag.  Working on the jab-cross getting full range and stepping.  Bobbed/weaved for 2 rounds and slipped for two. 

Did 4 rounds on the speed bag.  1 round right had, 1 round left, 2 rounds both hands.  I'm getting a little better at this at least.

Coached worked the mitts with me for two rounds.  Quote of the night "We're going 50% here, which for you is like taps".  He was focusing on the range of my jab and keeping my stance tight when throwing.  I get too wide, need to work on that.  Did a few 1-2s, then started throwing in some hooks and slipping.  Speed is there, just gotta keep the balance.
