Training Overview:
You will learn how to develop better lateral (side to side) footwork while also building a more rhythmic jab. Be sure to not cross your feet when moving side to side & always maintain a solid boxing stance.
You will set two points that are roughly 8 feet apart & move laterally between each marker. Once landing on a marker you will deliver a Single Jab, Double Jab, and Triple Jab before moving to the next point.
Be sure to warm- up, 3 rounds of Jump rope at 2 minutes per round & 45sec rest will be a great start!!
Drilling Section:
Coach’s Note: Each Drill will be done twice(2x); the length of each round will be 3 minutes while the rest will be 45 seconds. A slightly shorter rest will boost your endurance overtime. The first time you conduct the drill will have a conditioning exercise with it and then the second round you’ll focus only on the drill itself.
Drill A.) Jab, Jab-Jab, 1-1-1 + 10 Push Ups
Lateral (Side to Side) footwork while working Single jab, Double Jab, and Triple Jab.
Before moving to the next marker, do 10 push-ups, come back to your feet then move to the next marker & continue the process
Remember, 2 rounds of this drill. One with conditioning, the second round focus on the drill by itself!
Drill B.) Jab-Roll, Jab-Jab-Roll, 1-Pull-1-1 + 10 Boxing Squats
Lateral (Side to Side) footwork while working Single jab, Double Jab, and Triple Jab BUT this time you will add head movement to this drill as well.
When rolling after you Jab, roll to your jab side(your lead side).
When pulling, don’t lean back but moreso take a slight step back with the rear foot, then push off that rear foot into a double jab, using that momentum for more power in your jab
Before moving to the next marker, do 10 Boxing Squats(squatting in your Boxing stance),then move to the next marker & continue the process.
