How Do You Throw A Boxing Jab And Cross Combo?
The jab and cross combo, also known as the 1-2 punch in boxing, is an effective combination. The jab blinds your opponent, and the surprise cross can produce a knockout. Follow these steps to perform a jab and cross combo. Master the jab and cross punches separately. After you can throw strong single punches, you can move up to combinations. In boxing, a cross is a punch that comes across the body, while a jab is a quick snapping punch. Get into boxing stance with your right foot forward and your left foot back. Your weight should be evenly balanced. Make a fist and bring your hands up to cheekbone level. Snap your left arm out with a slight pivot of your hips and shoulders. Rotate your shoulders so your extended palm is facing downward. Snap the jab back into ready position. As your jab snaps back, throw a strong right cross. Bring your right hand back; both hands should now be at cheekbone level.
