    Default Re: improving your weaker side

    If your right handed then your right eye will also be your dominant eye the left eye sort of just supports things, now im not 100% sure but that says to me that you could never be as good as a southpaw as you will be as an orthadox, i think its more a mind muscle control issue throwing with only your left hand will awaken the muscles in your left arm and in time when you have good control over them you will be able to recruit more fibres with the punches which will inturn give you a better feel for what your left hand is doing, if i was you i would try to dedicate a round or 2 of sparring a week using just your left hand, same on the heavy bag and other equipment, using your left hand more will give you better control over your left hand, it can take a while to get the technique down for a good left hook aswell so all of these things are issues but i suspect a lack of control over the muscles in your left arm because i was the same when i first started boxing i felt like i couldnt squish a fly with my left hook never mind knock someone out, everytime u have spare time throw your left hand if your waiting for kettle to boil, running a bath, etc just shadow box with your left hand if you do this whenever you get chance during the day you will speed things up.
