The best way to increase punching power..

[Pacmanjay]

Seems as you're unable to find the book i'm on about via google i'll quote some for you. I'm nice like that.

This one is certainly worth reading;

I guess he agrees that anyone with proper technique can achieve this?

That's just a few quotes because I got bored looking, just read up on boxing, might learn something. Now, who to believe, Jack Dempsey...or you?

Is this the book that you were referring to by Jack Dempsey? Since when did Dempsey's word become fact? You mentioned alot of "he said, she said" comments which are ***ing ridiculous and why I didn't even want to bother responding. Your effort in using the type of argument you have been using and this type of evidence is just as laughable as your claims. Since when did Dempsey have a Ph.D in Physics?

And what don't you understand about the statement "People are BORN with DIFFERENT potential, their hard work can only take them to the top of their POTENTIAL", I mean if you disagree with the statement you basically believe anyone can punch as hard as anyone if they just put the effort in. Then YOU must think that you can punch as hard as anyone if you just put in the effort (and your bodyweight, LMAO) into it.


I'm going to stop here because your so ***ing ****** that it hurts my head to try and respond to a stubborn knucklehead like you.

No you're right, your word is better than his, and physics. It's all good, you're obviously right and i'm so so clearly wrong. I'm bored of this discussion now, the end result is going to stay exactly the same, you'll say one thing, i'll say the other, you'll say i'm wrong but won't put forward an argument, i'll say you're wrong and put forward a brilliant, amazing, mind numbingly intelligent work of art which for for future will reference will be known as 'my argument' and we'll both inevitably continue this discussion until the moon glows green.

Tbh I think dumbell swings are good for the punch endurance but be carefull because I have hurt my back on them . Check out this Rosstraining vid he uses the homemade t-bar

Just develop your body for power. Doing this you more than likely will see an increase in weight. Do alot of pull ups and back exercises. That way, when you keep the hand that isn't extending to punch close to your body, your body will use the back muscles for punching power. Broad back = Power!

Genetics plays a part too but look at Pacquiao. His genetics weren't to knock people out but from his plyometric training, he developed the power and KOs people. Then again he also throws 300 punches a round, so the can play a factor in KOing people as well. 100+ flush shots in 1 round your going down.

yeeeaaaaaaaaaaaa.... I'm done with you too.


I have to say you're arrogance almost matches your ******ity/ignorance.


You just would not understand how ridiculous it is for someone like you to make a comment like that above.


Unbelievable...

I think it is definately technique recently I have watched a bit of tyson to pic up some technique whilst throwing. The first day after watching I sparred a boy and burst his nose, which is quite usual for me esp as im a right handed southpaw and it was my left that did it.
The next day the same thing, I broke another boys nose with a big left hand, even though i hardly throw my left.

It can be god given but if you try to improve your technique whilst throwing you will go a fair way to improving

Alll right sooooo back on topic Punching Power...........Im not a boxer nor have i ever been in a boxing gym or been trained by a boxer. I did read jack dempseys book championship fighting and took tai chi and wing chun (1 year 2 hours week private lessons) so i have an idea on how to punch and how to ground myself and use my whole body when punching. now as far as i see it F=MA right? so you can either increase your mass or your speed if you want more force behind the punch. So what i do is increase the mass with muscles, tendons, and ligaments that I train for speed and i do this with a series of 4 with each part of the series consisting of 6 sets of 40 jabs alternating so each hand gets 20 with a 15 second break between each set and a 4-6 min break between each part of the series. now you can throw a jab in the air like normal shadow boxing or you can put in 150% effort and pretty much try to throw everything out of their sockets as your fist whips off your wrist across the room and through the wall this is what you should be doing each time you punch(the shock strangthens all the tendons and ligaments....Perhaps). when i first started i could only do 6 sets of 10 and one set took me almost 5 seconds now i can throw the 40 in almost 8 seconds before i could barely do this twice a week now i do the whole series 6 times a week. for some one trying this out though what will probably happen is you will hyper extend your arm, elbow joints will bruise and your shoulders and back will beee sooooooo sore. Let your self rest and recover maybe 2 or 3 days. once recovered do the punching again and again and again and work up to more punches and try to punch harder and faster. Pretty much your remodeling all your tendons and ligaments strengthening your joints paving pathways for tendons over your fast twitch muscles and tearing down muscle fibers into 2 smaller fibers giving you a higher ratio of muscle cells to water increasing your muscle surface area and allowing for more ATP creation and resynsnythis along with a higher lactic acid threshold. In the end the fast punching should make your body be able to punch harder and faster also it gives you a chance to perfect your punch technique and allows you to pratice keeping your balance after throwing punches with everything you have. So im building muscle that are fast twitch and tendons that aid that and can handle the force being put into them which is an increase in mass and if anything an increase in speed and even if there isn’t an increase in speed you arnt going to be slowing your self down so atleast the mass will increase for harder punching. OK so that last part about remodeling your body No idea mainly mubo jumbo that sounds cool But I do read a lot about exercising sooooo thats my reasoning for why i do this. of course im not a boxer or a trainer or some one that has ever been trained by a boxer or a trainer so I have no idea what im talking about and I don’t recommend anyone try this because I have no idea what its going to do to my elbow joints and shoulders 30 years down the road. so with all that said Im not sure if ive surpassed my potential but if not my potental has increase many times over through the evolution of my body and if you tell me that the body cant evolve over that time period what about building up an immunity to a poison i imagine that any vaccine out their wouldnt work other wise I mean your potential is to get sick beforehand but once you evolve from weaker doses of the virus the virus dosnt even have a chance same idea punch really hard and get hurt let your body heals stronger then before and before you know it you can pull off 10 sets of 100 and your body isnt even sore and you have become a self-made puncher not a born one....Perhaps perhaps one day ill be heavy weight champ of the world and then everyone will be reading this post MUWHHAAHAHAHAHAH

This should only be taken as an idea "like an ink blotter on legs i asorbed everything i could and got rid of what didnt feel right" Jack Dempsey. sounds like something bruce lee once said something about asorbing what is usefull and getting rid of the rest. if this dosent feel right dont do it but try to figure out why it dosent feel right before you push it off maybe you can turn it into something that works better for you.

nobody's going to read that ^^^^ ****

it is technique to throw a good punch, I am very skinny but I hit just as hard as most people my age and bigger than me... but its also natural aswell, some people naturally hit harder than others.
