Such a proud (and painful) moment as a coach. 🥲
Me: “Ben, lock your elbow! More power! Sit on the punch!”
Ben: Unleashes a absolute nuke 💣
My Rib: ✌🏼💀
We’ve been drilling Ben’s form specifically to lock his elbow on the cross. The goal was to stiffen the punch and generate true power.
Well... it worked.
I was holding mitts and giving resistance back, he sat down on the punch perfectly, and the transfer of force was so solid that something had to give. That “something” happened to be my rib. 🦴💥
Suffering for success. Great work, Ben!
Who else has been broken by their own student? 👇🏼
