They build muscle memory. Even without a partner, training your body to move correctly ensures that when you do spar, the movements are automatic.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"55\"><b data-path-to-node=\"55\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Q2: Can I train on a hard floor?<\/b> <b data-path-to-node=\"55\" data-index-in-node=\"33\">A:<\/b> Not recommended.

You must roll across the shoulders, not the head. Tuck your chin.
