Learn how to master the different boxing punches
To be a professional in boxing, you must master different types of punches. Work on the fundamental punches such as the jab, cross, hook, and uppercut. Each punch requires different body mechanics. Concentrate on precision and technique rather than force. Use a heavybag to improve your power and timing, and a pace bag to improve your hand-eye coordination and timing. A shadowboxing session that focuses on punch precision is beneficial. Seeking feedback from your coach will help you progress.
