Butterfly Challenge - Week 3

Our weather predictions were rather varied this week! Thank you to Thelma (Who accurately predicted that it was okay to train at our usual location). The slight downpour was a relief from the 30 degree heat.

The heat for our Challenge is also turning up a few notches with Gareth having the Butterflies stretch a little extra this week. We are noticing an improvement every week in all our Butterflies. Whether or not you are setting your intentions every week, did you think that you would be training like a Fighter 2 or 3 months ago?

This week we covered over our basic stances and punches and added to our Butterfly cocktail, the Left Hook.

Remember the Left hook can be just as dangerous and powerful as your right hand. When throwing the left hook, your weight sits mainly on your back foot, leaving your front foot free to rotate with your hips. The best hook is one that is delivered while protecting your jaw at all times!

Congratulations to all Butterflies for doing some great partner work and also for putting in the extra effort in squats and pushups. Let us know how you are feeling! We are excited about next week and are looking forward to seeing you there!
