Lead Hook → Weave Rear → Cross → Lead Hook

What this combo trains

Lead Hook, Weave Rear, Cross, Lead Hook builds your ability to attack, defend, and counter without breaking rhythm. The opening hook draws a return you weave under, and coming up on the rear side loads the power hand for the cross; the closing hook lands on the same rotation. It develops fluid head movement under fire, hip loading through the weave, and the coordination to chain four beats seamlessly.

Step by step

1. 1.
   Lead Hook

   Open with the lead hook, turning the lead hip through with the elbow up, expecting a counter to come back.

2. 2.
   Weave Rear

   Dip under that returning hook, rolling to your rear side and coming up with the power hand loaded.

3. 3.
   Cross

   Fire the cross off the rear hand out of the weave, driving it with the hip rotation you just stored.

4. 4.
   Lead Hook

   Close the same rotation with a second lead hook, turning the lead hip through and taking the head off centre.

Common mistakes

• Weaving flat or standing up too early, so you come up out of position with no power stored for the cross.
• Rolling to the wrong side, which fails to load the rear hand and leaves you facing the counter.
• Dropping the hands during the weave, exposing the head as you come up.
• Throwing the closing hook off balance because the cross overcommitted your weight forward.

Who it suits

An advanced combo for fighters confident rolling under punches in the pocket. It works from both orthodox and southpaw because the app mirrors every left and right to your stance.

Why it works

Throw the hook, roll under the one that comes back, and come up on the rear side with the cross loaded; the hook closes the same rotation.
