Find a boxing coach near me in Hove

Boxing uses a simple numbering system to name punches during training.

• Number 1, the jab: a quick straight punch with your lead hand, used to measure distance.
• 2 – the cross: a strong rear-hand shot driven across the body.
• Numbers 3 and 4, the hooks: curved punches with your lead hand (3) and rear hand (4).
• Numbers 5 and 6, the uppercuts: upward shots thrown from below the guard.

Working with a coach helps you throw each punch with the right form and balance.
