Noah Ramsey set to fight on Saturday August 17th! Let’s go Noah 🙌🏻🙌🏻

2/2 for the team today as Remy gets the job done against a very game opponent. A close first round where Remy started to find his range and get reads, the second and third round he separated himself from the opposition with his killer knees in the clinch, checked low kicks and countered incredibly well 👏🏻 amazing work Remy!

3 rounds of brutal knees gets Noah the unanimous decision victory against a very talented opponent. Listened well and executed what he has been working in training! A very bright and talented young man. Enjoy the win Noah 🏆

Some graft this week from the lads who showed up in the heat (or hungover on Monday after the euros)! New techniques learnt, more rounds of application and sparring. As everyone in the industry bangs on about, consistency is key 👌🏻 well done fellas see you next week 👏🏻

Points to improving punching mechanics.

1. Raising up onto the toes of the lead leg when throwing the cross puts us off balance and makes the punch harder to recover. Vs Joe in the second picture where his lead foot is planted to the floor giving greater stability and the ability to recover the punch back to his base.
2. Joe is up on his toes in both images which is good! however in the first image we can see his foot is still in a side on position, this restricts the amount of rotational force we can deliver from the hip and we lose some of the potential punching power. In the second image you can see the foot has pivoted to be forward facing as he throws the punch, allowing for maximum force and weight into the punch.
3. In the first image Joe’s leg is locked straight on impact with the punch. This creates instability in our stance and restricts hip movement. Vs the second picture where he has a bend in his leg which we would call a more athletic stance.
4. Joe’s shoulder has over rotated in the first image to compensate for the lack of rotation from the lower body. This has sent his punch across his body on a diagonal trajectory instead of forwards. This means his punches force doesn’t travel directly through the target and this means less force and impact travelling through the opponent. Vs the second image where you can see clearly his shoulder and arm travelling forward through the pad!

Ultimately all these small changes have improved Joe’s stability and punching power! So now he hits ryt ard.
