summary
Taking a straight punch on the palm of your rear glove, held at your cheek.
steps
- • Hold your rear glove open at your cheek, palm forward.
- • Let the punch arrive into the palm. The hand barely moves.
- • Keep your eyes on the target rather than watching your own hand.
- • If you are pushing your hand out to meet it, you are reaching, not catching.
