In boxing and kickboxing, there are several different punches and punch combinations that you can throw. In order to keep things systemized, the majority of boxers and boxing coaches will use a number system to help with overall consistency. Each different type of punch is given a specific number. When first learning to box, it can be confusing, but FightCamp is here to help you every PUNCH of the way. Today, FightCamp Trainer Aaron Swenson will go over the punch number system that you will use for all FightCamp boxing and kickboxing classes. The six (6) main boxing punches are numbered 1 through 6. He will also give you some tips for how to properly execute each punch so you’ll be ready to go for your first boxing workout!

Before You Begin…

Odd numbered punches are thrown with your lead hand

Even numbered punches are thrown with your rear hand

To figure out which hand is your lead and which is your rear, you need to first determine your proper boxing stance

Boxing Punch Number System

Let's break it down to a few key things that you want to think about while throwing each punch.

Jab | 1

Legs

Start on the ball of your rear foot with your weight on your rear leg The amount of weight you can transfer from your rear to your lead leg determines the power of the jab All of your punching power comes from your legs As you throw the jab, push off your rear leg and transfer your weight forward

Arms/Hands

Your elbow should remain tight to your body, perpendicular to the ground

As you throw the punch, “snap” it by turning over your wrist

As you retract the punch, pull your hand straight back towards your face, in a defensive guard This is effectively known as “chambering” your punches Bring your hands straight back with your elbows tucked into your body

Cross | 2

Legs

Start on the ball of your rear foot with your weight on your rear leg The amount of weight you can transfer from your rear to your lead leg determines the power of the cross Focus on pivoting your rear foot to help transfer your weight forward All of your punching power comes from your legs As you throw the cross, push off your rear leg and transfer your weight forward

Arms/Hands

Your elbow should remain tight to your body, perpendicular to the ground The closer your elbow stays to the midline of your body during the punch, the more power your cross will have As you throw the punch, “snap” it by turning over your wrist Your shoulders should rotate to help maximize punch power

As you retract the punch, pull your hand straight back towards your face, in a defensive guard, chambering your punch Bring your hands straight back with your elbows tucked into your body

Lead Hook | 3

Legs

Start with approximately 70% of your weight on your lead foot

As your throw the punch and follow through, shift your weight backward to your rear foot Focus on pivoting your lead foot to help maximize the weight transfer backward All of your punching power comes from your legs and torso rotation Weight transfer = power

Key tip: If you were to pause your punch mid-throw, can you lift your lead leg off ground?

If not, focus on proper weight transfer to maximize power

Arms/Hands

From your guard, start executing the punch by bringing your lead hand about one foot outside of the midline and your target (towards your lead side) Your hand should still be semi-perpendicular to the ground From here, “pop” your elbow upward so it is parallel to the ground Shift your weight backward and rotate your upper torso to follow through on the punch

Key coaching cue: Think of punching “around” your opponent during the hook

Give yourself about one foot of space, performing a “semi-circle” while executing the punch The punch finishes at the midline of your body with your top two knuckles making contact Both palms down and thumbs up are okay for punching contact

Rear Hook | 4

Legs

Start with approximately 70% of your weight on the ball of your rear foot As you throw your punch, follow through and shift your weight forward to your lead foot Focus on pivoting your rear foot to help maximize the weight transfer forward All of your punching power comes from your legs and torso rotation Weight transfer = power

Arms/Hands

From your guard, start executing the punch by bringing your rear hand about one foot outside of the midline and your target (towards your rear side) Your hand should still be semi-perpendicular to the ground From here, “pop” your elbow upward so it is parallel to the ground Shift your weight forward and rotate your upper torso to follow through on the punch

Once your punch has landed, “chamber” your hand back into your guard

Lead Uppercut | 5

Legs

Start the punch sequence by bending your knees and dropping your center of gravity The majority of your weight should be on your lead leg

As you execute the punch, explode upwards
