Chewing gum to increase punch resistance.?

when you get hit on "the button" you get knocked out because on the other side of your face your jaw bone is jammed into a nerve.
sooo like if you get hit on the tip of the chin on your right side, on the left side back near you ear the jaw bone is pinching a large nerve.
by keeping your teeth clenched you help preventing your jaw from pinching the nerve and by chewing gum you increase how hard and how long you can clench your teeth.
but really the strength of your jaw only plays a role when your getting hit on the button, get hit any where else on the head and you better have a strong neck/shoulders.Comment

It's not the strength of your jaw that prevents knock outs, it's your JC (jaw coordination). That's why guys like delahoya always moving their jaws around before fights gettin' it ready. Instead of chewing or lifting weights with your mouth you should focus on the jaw's coordination by doing exercises for its dexterity. Start by tying your shoe laces with your teeth and move up to tying knots in cherry stems. I don't necessarily recommend blowing dudes, but my coach said it's really useful so I've made it part of my routine.Comment

The trigeminal nerve.
when you get hit on the tip of the left side of your chin the right side of your jaw under your ear pinches the **** out of this never causing intense pain and making you pass the **** out.
please stop talking out your ass.

as you can see in the 5th post there are also several other nerves and aterys located diretly behind the jaw.
its a nerve center very similar to the solar plexus.Last edited by Spartacus Sully; 11-01-2011, 01:23 AM.Comment
