Throwing A Jab In Boxing

Boxing is a sport with plenty of moves. If you want to become a good boxer then you need to be able to do them all. One move in boxing is the jab. It is not too difficult. This hub will teach you how to throw a jab in boxing.

You want to have your hand held up high and your elbow in close to your body.

Now you want to push off your back foot just as though you are a pitcher.

Next take a step forward and extend your arm straight out towards your target.

Now you need to rotate your fist over. What I mean by this is your thumb turns inward as you reach full extension.

You need to protect your head so drop your chin to your shoulder.

Connect with your hand at the same time the toe of your front foot touches the ground.
