  2. Rookie Mistakes Leaving Your Feet Do not leave your feet because it will comprise your balance. The superman punch may look amazing in films, and it may make your jaw drop in some styles of MMA fighting, but it never pays off during a traditional boxing match. Wildly Throwing Punches You do not just need to plan your punches intelligently, but you need to time and place them in an optimal manner and land them with a precise aim. Wildly thrown fast punches never find the target. They either get blocked by the opponent or the opponent moves out of the way. Telegraphing This is a mistake that every rookie makes. Do not telegraph or cock your punch by pulling your hand back before you throw your punch. This gives your opponent the time to come up with a defence against your punch.

  3. Basic Theories You Need to Know to Increase Punching Power Speed Is Not Power Remember that power is acceleration times mass. So, power is not just speed, you also need to have a weight or a force behind that speed. A fast punch won’t hit your opponent hard unless you add some body weight behind it. Move Your Body Just like Bruce Lee’s concept behind his renowned one-inch punch: moving your entire body 1 inch has a harder impact as compared to moving your arm 1 foot. Move your body to obtain maximum force (or weight) behind your punch. The trick behind this is to not focus on moving your body for a great distance but instead focus on moving it all at the same time. Use Your Legs The biggest muscles in your body always generate the most power when punching. People who punch by using their arms only never punch with real power. So, use your legs. info@aqfsports.co.uk www.aqfsports.co.uk

  4. How to Improve Boxing Punching Power Plyometric Push-Ups Plyometric training, also called “jump training”, comprises exercises in which the muscles exert maximum force and effort in short bursts. The aim is not just to improve power but also speed. Work on Your Form Work on your style, determine your reach and make sure that your punches never go outside your reach. More importantly, train extensively and spend most of your time doing energetic training sessions with a trainer that can help you adjust the punch bag and can spar with you. : Bench Press info@aqfsports.co.uk www.aqfsports.co.uk

  5. Start Slow Many people focus too much on their speed that their shoulders and torso never end rotating in their blows. They practically throw fast yet underpowered punches. To solve this problem, learn to note how energy moves into your fist. Take it slow. Pause at the start of a punch, and check your form and then throw the blow at half speed. Involve your body’s all muscles in the punch. Once you know how to add your body’s strength in your punches, then focus on your speed. Note Your Distance In a fight, you will have many opportunities to punch. If you are too far away or too close to your opponent, your punch will not pack enough power because it will lose its momentum because of overextending, or you just did not twist far enough. It’s not about waiting for the other person to be at the correct distance, it’s also about correcting the distance between you and your opponent and learning the right distance for you depending on your reach. info@aqfsports.co.uk www.aqfsports.co.uk
