How to do it

  1. Take a fighting stance - one foot forward, fists up in guard, chin tucked.
  2. Snap your lead hand straight out in a jab, shoulder rolling up to cover your chin, and pull it straight back to guard.
  3. Then fire the cross: your rear hand drives straight out as your back foot pivots and your hips rotate behind it.
  4. Jab, cross, reset - the jab is speed, the cross is your bodyweight arriving, and both hands snap home to guard the instant they land.
