At that point we're going to make sure their... after that we're going to make sure their hands are wrapped, and I usually wrap the person's hands the first couple times until they get used to it. After wrapping the hands, we'll get some gloves that fit them good and we'll start a little bit of light working out and learning some combinations on the heavy bag. From there we're going to go to like the speed bag, we're going to do some other things in the gym: some foot work; some shadow boxing; I'll show them a little bit about how to use the head target mirrors mounted on the wall; also the stair stepping that we do on our set of stairs that we have - a little bit of everything to get them a good firsthand, first day knowledge of the general gym itself.
