To hone your jab in various punishing and cruel applications—for it is what you use to influence the behavior of that hard-headed brute trying to hit you—practicing jab sequence drills, without interloping power punches, are the best methods.

Do jab drills:

1. In the mirror

2. Alone in the ring

3. On the speed bag

4. On the mitts

5. While sparring

The Jab Drills are:

1. The Power Line

2. The Lateral Drag

3. The C-Cut

4. The Post

5. The Level Change

6. The U-Hustle

Before we describe the drills we need to be crystal clear on what the best uses of the jabbing hand are, which shall be addressed next in The Boxed Hand.
