    Default Re: Correct form for throwing uppercuts.

    say you've come off a left hook and your coming back to neutral position,
    A) pivot your right foot around as if going for a straight right
    B) bend your knees slightly
    C) bring your elbow out from the tucked position, forward sharply, as if you were hinting at elbowing your opponent in his lower chest. Keep forearm facing directly upwards.
    D) twist your right fist anti-clockwise so that your palm faces your face, or maybe a rotated a tiny bit past - as connecting with chin.
    A to D above done simulatneously

    E) Twist slightly more through the hips to give your arm more extension through opponents chin
    F) Tense your bicep sharply to power through opponents chin and add slightly more extension upwards at the same time.
    E to F above done simulatneously just after A to D, to give good connection and do more damage with the punch..

    Hope that helps.. I'm not very good at technical descriptions of punches etc.. And my form may not always be 100% correct with how others perform certain punches. So anyone feel free to add or critique, or straight up tell me i'm doing it wrong..

    edit : Ooops forgot to add, the above is for orthodox throwing a right uppercut...
