Okay, so I went to my boxing gym on friday and sparred a little, but each time I would try and go to the body, I would be super lazy(or really slow) and get jabbed (or something else) in the face each time, lol.
I know I was feeling a little sluggish, but how do you suggest to target the body (in boxing only)? Use more jabs, feint more?
I am a fan of the lead right to the body and body hooks, too, but I focus a lot on moving in and out, trying to use effective footwork and drawing out attacks, rather than standing still, slipping and in a close range etc. But what are your favorite ways of getting there?
Thoughts?
