    The jab, the most basic punch in striking. Doesn’t matter if It’s Boxing, Muay Thai Kickboxing or Mixed Martial Arts. You need a good jab.

    Why so?

    Well for starters a good jab will help you set up all your other punches not to mention kicks, knees and elbows.

    I feel like a good chunk of your striking training should be spent working on and trying to master the jab.

    I thought that tonight would be as good a time as any touch on the jab a little and toss some videos up too, which ya’ll need anyway.

    Get a lot of work on that jab via shadow boxing and pad work. Both of which you should get a good dose of in the Kickboxing or MMA classes offered here at Ivey League MMA.

    Check out the videos below and get a daily dose of the jab, an oldie but still a goodie!
