How To Perform
1
Take your guard stance an arm's length from the bag with your hands wrapped and gloves on.
2
Throw a jab, pull it back, then fire a cross with your rear hand, rotating through your hips.
3
As you finish the cross, let your weight shift onto your lead foot so you're loaded for the hook.
4
Pivot on your lead foot and throw a lead hook in a short horizontal arc, landing with your first two knuckles.
5
Reset to your guard, breathe, and repeat. Add speed gradually, keeping each punch crisp.
