There have been a lot of cool new moves lately in our boxing class. This week we were introduced to backhands. While the instructor made it look super easy, it is actually pretty difficult. You not only need to step and turn the right way, but you have to be careful where you connect with the bag. My first couple of tries I didn’t really have any of it right and hit the bag at a bad angle, which hurts pretty badly. This video is after I had a better grasp on the overall movement, but I can tell I still need a lot of work to make this move look effortless.
