How much do steroids increase punching power ?

[TheEvilSaint]

steriods generally dont give you anything except the animalistic desire to exercise. most roids are just extra testosterone, and when you take them, the more of a meat-head alpha male you become. your stamina increases, you sexual desire increases, you aggression dramatically increases, you desire to work out skyrockets, you basically become the ultimate macho man (truely pathetic).

not all roids are like that, though.

well, they help you get in shape. they help you get the feeling to builds muscle. it increases you aggression and stamina and speed and reflexes. so yeah, they kinda do help with boxing.

which is probably why they are ILLEGAL.

Steroids cut down on the recovery time necessary between workouts. You can train harder and expect greater muscle gains because of your increased intensity. In boxing however, cellular growth is not the primary objective. Boxers must increase strength while staying within the confines of their weight class. The boxer must train to increase ligament and tendon strength while initiating a response from a maximum number of motor units. The boxer can thus gain speed, power and explosiveness.

[John continued to say that steroids would make a fighter more susceptible to knockout]. Steroids cause an increase in blood flow and blood pressure, while reducing the body’s ability to clot blood. This equates to a fighter that is less able to go the distance and more vulnerable to knockout. John added that a problem with many trainers is their failure to understand the true science of conditioning. Each athlete is unique, thus requires a unique conditioning and nutritional program. Many trainers wish to help their athletes, but their actions often come back to hurt them. This may have been the case with someone from Fernando’s camp.

The Proper Way
Let’s put steroids aside and concentrate on the proper way to train for boxing. A boxer's objective is to maximize power and explosiveness, while maintaining his ideal fighting weight. Consider Kermit Cintron, John commented that his body fat is between 2 ½ and 3%. He added that body fat is not an important energy source for the boxer due to the sport’s anaerobic nature. “Kermit has the lean muscle mass of a guy 2 weight classes ahead of him.” This is one of the reasons that Kermit has been so explosive with his punching ability. Of Kermit’s 17 victories, 16 have come by knockout.

exhibit A: tommy terrible chin morrison. the guy was juiced up, had helluva power, and has to be labeled as a one trick pony. he gave a great shot, but if you took it or came back with a better one, you basically had the fight won.
