Combination punches

[Klemman]

One of the keys th throwing fast punches, and especially combinations, is how fast you bring back your fist. Try it right now.

Throw a punch in the air as fast as you can, without trying to bring back the punch as fast or faster. Now throw a punch and do try to bring it back as fast or faster.

This won't only allow you to throw a second or third punch faster, but will also put you back into a defensive position faster, and will add pop to your punch.

Hey all i just wanted to give you an update!

I'm getting faster! i throw a 12123 pretty fast and can riddle off 1112. I can do Manny's 212 but i have to concentrate on cutting the gap with my feet which I've been working on also. Since I've been focusing more on speed I've also dropped a few pounds it's crazy.

I have a sparring session this sunday against my old partner who I've always had to outbox. He's good but kinda stubborn and sticks with the same things but he's allot bigger than i am. I weigh 175 5'11 and he weighs 215 6'2 longer reach than me too. I can't wait to see if i can use what I've been training !

I'll let you know how it goes. focusing on being confident but not ****y, fast but not careless. i want to see if i can hold my ground a lil bit... ha we'll see!

cheers!
