Purpose

Uses the jab to open the body line.

Setup

  • Pair boxers as A and B
  • Start at technical pace, complete the sequence, reset, then swap roles

Run it

  1. A double jabs high, right hand to body
  2. B parries/catches jabs and elbow-blocks body shot
  3. B counters hook or jab
  4. Reset, check shape, then repeat

Coach checks

Do not dive into the body. Exit after body right. Check the purpose: uses the jab to open the body line.

Scale it

Coach calls body or head for right hand.

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

Use only after the base movement is reliable. Add choice, rhythm breaks or round pressure carefully.
