Show me your 1-2. Step back a little. You either not don't reach or loose your balance. <I am not losing my balance. I can not reach at all.> Does he jump back too far? <Yes.> 1-2. OK Now show me how you throw 1-2. For instance I throw a left jab into you you jump back and then throw your 1-2. See? How many step back I did? <Two.> No, just one step. One more time. <So I jumped back too far?> No. Your second movement… You can not reach me. You cannot do the second jump because you are off balance. Look what happens. I am throwing just one punch. I return my left foot back and I am off range. So in fact I did just one step. And stayed in one place. Again I will throw a jab You will throw 1-2 and stop after right punch. Throw 1-2 and stop after landing your right. Throw 1-2. Hands up. Jump back. 1-2. OK. Now look. See? You are falling. You had to sop yourself. Look where is your left foot now.
Left foot. Initially your left foot was pointing sideways into me Now your left foot went out so much. Now put your left foot close to mine left foot. And turn it sideways a little. Throw your right. Are you stable now? Extend your knees. Yes. Stand. In this position… jump forward. Jump forward. Do not reach. Look what happened. You jumped back. You threw the jab. Let's suppose you did not open yourself. But from the right foot… Instead of upward movements with your hips. And jump. And rotate. You did this movement. You found yourself here. You reached with your right arm. And of course your front foot went sideways and you have lost your balance. Now do just one movement for me. Jump back on your right foot. And now do not jump forward but push yourself up. Push yourself up and rotate your right hip. Now it is better. Your front foot was not displaced so much. But don' swing your right hand. Your fist will go The elbow will extend Only after your shoulder from the back position will arrive into frontal position.
Do not hurry with your hands. The fist will go with the shoulder. Jump back put your weight on the back foot. No. Do not turn away. Look at me. Don't turn away. It is an necessary movement. You should go back like a telescopic antenna. Pull your hands into you. Into you. Jump back. Sit on your right foot. Like a spring. Now jump up. Up! And punch. Look at me. Yes! See your feet are in a right position now. Because your right foot did not started earlier than your feet. And hip rotation. That's it. Same with 1-2. <Understood. Thank you.> This sidelooking postion of your front foot is constant. It is always sideways to the opponent. But not against his front foot but against his back foot. Your opponent is literally projects between your hands and between your feet. Here is your support. A square. And it will hold you during your punch if you rotate your heel. <Thank you.> Use it..
