"On behalf of Expert Village this is The Boxing Chef from New York City talking about family fitness. Right now I am going to show you how to throw a jab and a right cross from the trainer himself. Notice how I am standing I got my knee at 12 o'clock, my toes are at 1 o'clock. Here I go elbows are in. That is a powerful jab and that is how you do it. You see how I'm holding my hands to protect myself. If my opponent went to the left and hook I would catch him and then I can throw a right cross at him which is just like that. Notice I'm pivoting I am going to get more power. That is it that is a right cross, the left hook would be like this. Spencer hold that back bag for me. There you go that is a left hook. A right hook watch as I turn, my elbow comes up and then I throw my hook through. If I want to weave and hook I weave and I hook. If someone is throwing a left hook at me I weave under it, step and with a right cross that is the proper way of doing it. "
