Range
Take this slowly, stay balanced, and ask your coach when something feels unclear.
category
distance
plain english
How far you are from your opponent, described by which punches can reach from where you stand.
example
“Stay long” means stay at a range where your straight punches land and theirs do not.
why it matters
Boxing is mostly an argument about distance. Most beginner problems are range problems wearing a different hat.
common mistake
Standing at a distance where you can be hit but cannot reach — the one range nobody wants.
