I've picked up a bad habit of not throwing the straight right so much.
I did some more sparring today and both trainers said I need to throw it more.
I think it's a matter of distance- I feel like I can always connect with the jab because I step forward and throw it, but with the straight right there is no forward stepping, so I tend to throw it only at short distances when I have my opponent on the ropes or something. I also usually throw it as a 1-2.
But today I was told to throw it anyway, even if I think it won't connect.
Any advice? Thanks
