Fight Tip #8 Learn Slipping
@resultsgymoffical Use solid guard to keep you safe and find the range to start slipping. Also you’ll feel how quick the punches are coming. As this is how quickly you’ll need to move your head off the line. Your head movements should be short and sharp, just enough to let the punches slip by and brush the shoulder. No big wasted movement, so you can see the different punches coming and keep posture as your are moving. Start by drilling with your partner, work up the speed and power as you will get some wrong 😑. Drill 1 Slip - jab Drill 2 Slip - cross Drill 3 Slip - jab cross Once comfortable introduce slipping into your sparring sessions. #fighting #boxing #mma #fight #training #muaythai #fitness #martialarts #gym #fighter #bjj #kickboxing #ufc #motivation #sport #k1 #boxinglife #karate #boxingtraining #boxer #strength #hardwork #boxinggym #workout #knockout #muaythaiuk #ko ♬ P.I.M.P. - 50 Cent
