Defence Habits (diary entry)

12.03.2022 Tuesday night's lessons were junior and senior MMA lessons. The former resumed my focus on developing my client's defence against straight rights and the latter was 8 rounds of focus mitt work. After a warm-up, including shadow boxing designed to promote better lead hand defence, we moved onto the boxing focus mitts. Here I repeatedly fed straight rights for my client to defend. This was mixed in with various combinations and other defences. I then layered in kicks and their defences with the Thai pads. We then moved onto the heavy bag and I had him do some restrictive training where we looked at improving body mechanics on the lead hook and better retrieval of the lead hand on all punches. The lesson finished with 2 x 2 minute rounds of MMA sparring where emphasis was again placed on testing his lead hand defence. The second lesson was plotted over 8 x 3 minute rounds of pad-work. The objective here was to help my client recover from illness so it was all conducted at a steady pace. We used a three punch combination with a block as the basis for each round. On the lead side he blocked and threw a lead uppercut/lead hook/rear straight and on the rear side he blocked before throwing a rear uppercut/lead hook/rear straight. These were isolated for the first two rounds and then tagged on after single jabs, double jabs and jab/cross combinations. I then mixed them up in a round before layering round kicks, various kicked defences and finished with the combination integrated with sprawls, clinches and low line shoots. The lesson concluded with some static stretching. https://clubbchimera.com/services/
