[ Ссылка ] - In this boxing training video there are 3 tips that will take your counter punching ability to the next level.
These area simple boxing training concepts, but this stuff works and it's carried out in boxing gyms around the World.
This is the first boxing training video in a series where we will take the theory and translate it into practice.
So, the boxing training tips:
1. Make your jab be the best it can possibly be
We all know the importance of your jab. Range finding, setting up combinations, controlling your space and ultimately breaking your opponent apart. Add to this list the foundation for any range of counter punching techniques. Check out the jab of Wladimir Klitschko to get a demonstration of hammering home that jab so as to make the opponent react. This reaction is then punished.
2. Don’t wait to see what happens, make something happen
A popular misconception regarding counter punching is that it involves waiting for the opponent to do something so that we can ‘counter’ it. 90% of counter punching exchanges are initiated by the counter puncher. How is this done? A mix of punching (see tip 1) and more often feinting. Brilliance in counter punching requires a thorough understanding of feinting techniques.
3. Build pre-set counter punching passages
Drills are incredibly important in any sport, and in boxing they are even more so. The fact is that certain passages of boxing work very well together. For instance, a left hook to the body will create an opening to the head. The threat of a right uppercut may lift the head perfectly for a destructive short range left hook. So, it is very much worth constructing and practising these passages in gym time.
So, that's our first boxing training video...the next one on pre-set counter punching passages will be next :-)
