Do I need any equipment to use the studies?

No. Most studies are shadow studies: you need floor space, a clear wall and something to read this on. The bag and pad studies assume a heavy bag or a pad holder and say so in their equipment label.

Which study should I open first?

The Stance and breathing study, then Jab / return to guard. The Foundations tier on the home page is the order the room would teach them in.

How long should a session be?

The starting plans run ten to twenty minutes. First bell is the shortest; the four-week progressions on the Sessions page build from there.

Can I change the work and rest times?

Yes. Every block in a session has its own work, rest and repeat values, and any saved plan can be edited again later.

What does the drill prescription on a study mean?

It is a starting point a coach might set: how many rounds, how long each is, how much rest, and what to do inside the round. Change it to suit you.

Why do the studies loop over four seconds?

Four seconds is slow enough to see where the heel, the hip and the elbow are at every moment. Real punches are much faster; the studies are for looking, not for pace.

Can I slow a study down further?

Yes. The speed control offers half speed, and the scrubber and the phase buttons let you stop on any moment.

Why is the figure orthodox?

Every study is authored once and mirrored on demand. Turn on the mirror control to see the southpaw version of any movement.

What are the walk-through phases on a study?

The four to six moments a coach would stop you on. They map onto the phase buttons in the player and the frames on the built page.

What is the second figure in some studies?

In the pad studies it is a holder drawn to show pad height and range, and in the range studies it is an outline at jab distance. It is an illustration of a position, not a partner technique; see the what this app is not page.

Does the app check my form?

No. There is no camera, no sensor and no assessment of any kind. It shows a reference movement; comparing yourself to it is your job and your coach's.

Has a coach checked the studies?

No. Every study was authored from published coaching descriptions and measured against written ranges, and the ranges are stated openly in the study notes. No qualified coach has reviewed them yet, and the app says so on every study.

What happens to my plans and notes?

They stay in this browser. There is no account and nothing is sent anywhere. Settings has a backup export and a restore for moving between devices.

Will the round clock work with my phone locked?

Not reliably. Browsers suspend timers and audio when the screen locks. Keep the page visible during a round; the app pauses when it is hidden so nothing runs on without you.

Why is there no bell sound the first time?

Browsers only play sound after you have touched the page. Press Start round and the bells work from then on.

Can I use the app offline?

Yes, after one visit while connected. The whole app, including the model and the phase images, is cached. Settings reports whether the offline copy installed.

Why does the study page show a still image before the model?

The rendered frame of the first phase is on screen at once and the 3D model takes over when it has downloaded. On a slow connection that can take a while; the images are real frames of the same model.

Can I print a session?

Yes. The session plan has a print button, and each four-week progression on the Sessions page prints as one sheet.

What do the common faults mean?

The three things that most often go wrong in that movement, and where to look in the player to spot each one. They are prompts for your own eye, not a diagnosis.

Can I make my own combinations?

Yes. The Combination lab lets you arrange any of the twenty-one actions in order, preview the sequence and add it to a session.

Is this a substitute for a boxing gym?

No. It is a way to look at movements between sessions and to run a timed round at home. Learning to box needs a coach, a room and other people.

What should I do if something hurts?

Stop, and ask a coach or a clinician. The app does not give medical or injury advice and is not written to.
