https://www.myboxingcoach.com - Your boxing training should incorporate lots of boxing drills. This is true regardless of where you are on your boxing journey, whether you are a beginner boxer or a seasoned competitor. Even if you are using boxing purely for fitness purposes, boxing drills will improve your boxing technique which then will improve your overall fitness because more muscles and better endurance is required to maintain that technique. There are a number of different way to work boxing drills. In this video I have chosen to show you a partner drill, also referred to as technical sparring (sparring without the punches to the head!) This boxing drill video covers something I call the Reactive Strike and it’s a great basis for sound counterpunching. The reactive strike is about using hand defences to react to an opponent’s punch - stopping the punch and responding in kind. In essence, the fewer physical actions you need to take when an opponent throws a punch at you the better. By being efficient and using fewer physical actions you are more likely to a) stop the punch and b) get your counter punch to land. Tip: Get your response back quickly otherwise the opening will be gone! Comments and questions below Cheers Fran
