By DrillGrid Admin
Purpose
Turns a single defended jab into a two-jab reply.
Setup
- Pair boxers as A and B
- Start at technical pace, complete the sequence, reset, then swap roles
Run it
- A jabs
- B parries and counters double jab
- A steps back and parries while moving
- Reset, check shape, then repeat
Coach checks
Double jab must travel with the feet. Check the purpose: turns a single defended jab into a two-jab reply.
Scale it
Coach calls single or double response.
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.
