How do you perform this exercise?
- Stand in an orthodox stance: left foot forward, right foot back shoulder-width, knees soft, hands at cheek level.
- Brace your core, tuck your chin, and keep the left hand guarding.
- Initiate from the ground: push off the ball of the right foot and rotate the right hip and shoulder forward.
- Drive the right fist straight from your chin to the target, turning the palm down at extension with a neutral wrist.
- Exhale sharply on the punch and keep a slight bend—do not hyperextend the elbow.
- Let the rear heel lift as you pivot; keep the lead foot planted and weight shifting slightly forward.
- Retract the right hand immediately along the same path back to your guard.
- Reset your stance and repeat smoothly for the desired reps or time.
