How To
How to Throw A Jab In Boxing
The jab, or the first punch in boxing, is fundamental. Begin in your boxing stance, and quickly extend your lead hand straight towards the target, rotating your fist so that the palm faces down at the moment of impact. Snap your hands back quickly to protect your face. To set up combinations and keep your opponent at a distance, the jab should be fast, straight and used both offensively.
