Body jab

Take this slowly, stay balanced, and ask your coach when something feels unclear.

number

0

stance note

A jab to the torso. Same hand and same mechanics as the jab, thrown from a lower level.

weight transfer

Bend the knees to drop your whole body, keeping your back straight. The weight stays centred.

hand path

The same straight line as the jab, just aimed lower, with the hand returning to your cheek — not to where it finished.

chin and guard

The rear hand stays high to cover the head you have just lowered into range.

common mistake

Bending at the waist and reaching down, which puts your head forward and low with no guard over it.

one cue

Change level with your knees, not your back.
