Vertical Triple Punching Drill

I punch my way down the bag.

I immediately punch my way up the bag.

What is important is that I am practicing…

High Center Low Drill

Just like it sounds.

I punch high.

I punch center.

I punch low.

I repeat.

Simple to say.

Simple to do…once.

Not so simple one hundred times.

Challenging to do one thousand times.

High Centre Low Drill

This is another triple punch drill.

All I am doing is punching three times in a row.

In this case, I start high and work my way down.

My bag is braced so it stays in one place when I hit it.

Combination Triple Punch Drills

I combine the last two days back to back.

It is much more important to place these punches properly and with correct timing than it is to simply punch fast.

Oh…Punching through the target is also vitally important.

Centre Low High Drill

This is the opposite order of the punches I was doing yesterday.

Still, this is just another triple strike combination drill.

The point is to be able to punch to various targets without thought.

High Low Centre Drill

This is a combination punch drill.

It also happens to be a ‘High Low Centre Drill’.

I practice this triple strike until it is a reflex.

Then I practice to maintain that reflex…

Rising Front Knee

This is just a simple knee to the groin.

But a lot can happen.

I have to be at punching distance for it to work.

Too close or too far away and I will both miss and leave myself vulnerable.

I make a point of keeping my hands up while striking.

Also, if I am close enough to use this I am close enough to have it used on me.

And once I have struck I have to be ready to follow up in case my blow is not enough.
