Tips for Jab Cross and other Punches
Don’t be Tense
Here is what new boxers, and even some fairly old ones don’t understand.
You need to be relaxed when throwing punches. If you are not…your punches will lack power and require more effort to complete the movement, meaning you will tire out quickly. Keeping your muscles relaxed when throwing the punch will give you more speed and power.
The 1, 2 Combo is not the end
Throw the 1, 2 combo and your opponent is finished. Absolutely wrong. Odds are that you will not even get through the guard of your opponent the first few times. So don’t wait for the opponent to drop after throwing just one simple combo.
Follow it up with the same combo or different one. Or get back to your defensive stance to block counterattacks. Even if you land the punches, don’t back off and keep the charge going.
Loosen the Hand
Don’t keep your hands clutched into tight fists the whole time, you will just tire out your hands. You cannot afford fatigued hands. The fists should be tightened only on moments when you make the impact with your punches, rest of the times they should be kept open and relaxed.
