Rising Block then Two Counter Punch Drill

The same limb that blocks executes the first punch.

I use the blocking position to strike into my opponents face with my first counter.

Then I counter with the other hand.

With this drill, I alternate sides with the Block/Punch.

Again, this is a three count drill.

Block and Counterpunch Drill

I put the pause in between the block and the counter on this drill.

Some I am performing a three count drill.

Therefore my count should be ‘one, two, three’.

Which is exactly what it would be if I were executing a three punch drill, over and over.

High, Low, Centre Punching Drill

This one is done from the ‘High Guard’ position.

The punches are powerful, quick and effective.

But this is still just a drill.

They would not be used against an opponent like this.

7th Grip: Still another Block then Counter Drill

This is the opposite of yesterday’s drill.

I block to the closed side of my upper torso before counter striking.

7th Grip: Another Block then Counter Drill

This time around, I block a punch to the open side of my head.

I then counter as shown.

This looks simple…

Doing it under pressure requires a lot of practice.
