Hour six of my new client's Boxing course. With the foundations laid on footwork, head movement, defence and straight punches, it was time to introduce the left hook. My evolving view in coaching is to create situations and opportunities for individuals to discover techniques for themselves. After that I work on better sculpting its development.
We did this through a series of 3-minute rounds:
Place left hook around the guard
Avoid the straight right and land the left hook
Jab/cross to the body/left hook to head vs defence
Ditto against straight punches
Jab/cross to the head/left hook to the body vs defence
Ditto against straight punches
Heavy bag
Left hooks in isolation
Transfer today's lesson onto the heavy bag
Ditto
