By DrillGrid Admin
Purpose
Teaches layered defence against repeated jab pressure.
Setup
- Pair boxers as A and B
- Start at technical pace, complete the sequence, reset, then swap roles
Run it
- A double jabs
- B parries/catches first jab and steps back from second
- Reset
Coach checks
Do not panic after the first jab. Keep stance. Check the purpose: teaches layered defence against repeated jab pressure.
Scale it
Add B jab back after stepping out.
Common faults
- Rushing the drill
- overreaching
- standing still after punching
- or trying to win the drill instead of learning the skill
Amateur relevance
Clean visible contact, immediate answer after defence, and a composed exit help the boxer look in control.
Use it
Run at rhythm pace first, then add one layer: speed, movement, counter, exit or coach call.
