i sparred for the first time yesterday....
yesterday i sparred for my first time with a vet turning pro, we went 3 rds and i tried as hard as i could to keep my composure. you could tell my jab was throwing me off badly i just wasn't snaping it. But all in all it was good and thursday ill be taping my spar session so i can study what i do wrong O0
Re: i sparred for the first time yesterday....
cool. were you guys throwing 100%, or just going light?

we went alittle more than light, it was my first time sparring so he didn't really hit me like he could of just giving me a good straight if i left my jab down or a nice combo because i wasnt punching much. it was frustrating because i couldnt open him up with my jab and i dont know i need to be a little more relaxed, how do i work on that?

AdamGB, looking at your typing, your left hand is faster than your right hand ('saprring').
Are you a jab and move boxer?

breathing...focus on your breathing....in and out......breath when your getting hit....breathe as you throw punches......never hold your breath....the fact you went 3 rds in your first lesson/sparring match is promising.....
