Boxing Footwork Drill #17 – The Jab Cross Puppet Drill
No equipment (or space) required whatsoever for this drill, we’re going to
perform this one on the spot.
The best cue to understand this drill and to ensure you’re performing it
correctly is to imagine that you are a string puppet. Your left hand is
connected to your left foot via a string and your right hand is connected to
your right foot via a string.
Begin by throwing a jab while lifting your left foot up, your left foot should
return to the floor as your jab reaches its full extension. Proceed to throw a
straight right hand while picking up your right foot, once again return your
right foot to the floor as your straight right hand reaches its full extension.
Alternate throwing your jab and cross while lifting your left and right foot in
sync with your punches.
Perform for rounds of 3 minutes.
