You finished sparring. What did you actually learn?
Session plans, round objectives, partner checklists, and review sheets.
Printable PDF. Instant download.
Most people leave sparring with a story about who got the better of whom. Few leave with a clear idea of what they practised.
When nobody agrees what a round is for, it turns into a contest by default. Pace creeps up. Ego joins in. You remember the shot you took and forget the rest.
This playbook gives every session a plan and every round a job.
What this actually is
A simple system for planning, running, and reviewing your sparring, built around conversations with your partner and your coach.
Agree the pace before you glove up. Give each round one clear objective. Review it the same day. Track the problem that keeps coming back until you can describe it precisely.
What is inside
13 pages. Every worksheet is built to be printed and written on.
A partner checklist for pace, contact, targets, and the stop signal.
Build a shared contact scale with your coach so the words mean the same thing.
Vague versus clear objectives, plus six cut out objective cards.
The Speed Upper, The Statue, The Tank and more, with what to say to each.
What you set out to do, what kept happening, what surprised you.
A tracker for the situation that repeats every week.
Turn vague questions into precise ones. One page to take into every session.
This is for you if
- Your light rounds keep turning into fights
- You spar regularly but cannot say what is improving
- The same partner catches you with the same thing every week
- You want more out of the sparring you already do
Your coach decides how hard, how often, and with whom. This playbook helps you get more out of every round you are given.
