Boxing Jab

Performing the: A Step-by-Step Tutorial Boxing Jab

Raise your fists to cheek level, elbows tucked in close to your body, with your leading hand (the same side as your leading foot) slightly forward.
Quickly extend your leading hand straight out in front of you, aiming for an imaginary target at your opponent's head or body level, while rotating your fist so that your palm faces down at the end of the punch.
As you punch, slightly pivot your leading foot and hip in the same direction for added power, but ensure your back foot remains planted for stability.
After delivering the jab, immediately retract your arm back to its original position to guard your face and body, preparing for the next move.
