    judging distance

    Anyone got any tips on judging distance in a fight? I hate when I throw a punch and im just short. is it just fear of getting closer before throwing a punch and Ill learn it better with expirence or is it somthing I should know now?

    Some people have better depth perception than others. Spend lots of time on the double-ended bag, that may help a bit. Be sure it is strung loose so that it swings wildly. Landing a punch is usually a combination of good timing as well as judging distance.

      Sparring will help improve this along with bag work.

        well, you gotta judge ur distance, thats all. it comes with practice and timing. dont be afraid to get in close if u have to. each guy u fight u will have to gauge ur distance, and u gotta do it quick so u can execute ur gameplan. spar alot and practice often!

          The jab isnt always used as a weapon, I often use it as a tool, a range finder if you will
