I am about 6'2 190 lbs, I noticed my wingspan is naturally longer than all my sparring partners at or above my height. How do you properly measure reach or wingspan? & Also what are good techniques to improve hand speed, Particularly Jabs and crosses.
I've been reading & digesting various amounts of the vastly knowledgeable members of this site, particularly on the classic It's sad to see people like this **** on the integrity of this site Since you're a journeymen come by & have a match wit a real journeymen No holds barred, you.need to be put in your place.
Do you know how to use your reach properly like stepping forward instead of leaning forward? And then not being too squared up
@bball: Yes I've been working on stepping in & using my jab for distance measuring & such while I circle, I've also found that quickly swtching stances from orthodox to southpaw While throwing a hook or jab throws an opponent off & lands well. But I'm needing techniques on handspeed improvement.
Get in your boxing stance and throw 100000000000000 jab cross combinations fast as you can without giving up any technique. Muscle memory.
& I've thrown millions of Jabs n crosses already ha must be faster! Nothins ever good enough for me until its past perfection
Learner, what moves the Arm, forward and Back is the Elbow. What turns the Fist is the Elbow, what makes a Fist are the Tendons attached to the Elbow. Its the joint that makes things happen as regards the Arm. If not maintained and in poor working order, it will restrict it from working as it should. Always try and maintain Wrist Elbow and Shoulder, by Stretch keeping the Neural pathways open and Balanced.
