How to Increase your Punching Power for Beginners

Описание: In this video, Everlast Nutrition Trainer, Mike Gales will walk beginners through some basics concepts and then an exercise routine that they can use to immediately improve their punching power.

Increasing punching power in boxing is a combination of developing proper technique, building strength and explosiveness, and incorporating power-specific training exercises.

First, it's important to work on proper technique for each punch, especially the power punches such as the cross, hook and uppercut. This includes using proper form, and using the entire body to generate power, including the legs, hips and shoulders.

Secondly, building strength and explosiveness in the upper body, core and legs is crucial for increasing punching power. This can be done through weight training exercises such as deadlifts, and squats, as well as plyometric exercises such as medicine ball slams and jump squats.

Thirdly, incorporating power-specific training exercises such as heavy bag work, focus mitts, and double-ended bag work can also help to increase punching power. These exercises help to build power in the upper body, as well as improving hand speed, coordination and timing.

Another important aspect is to pay attention to your nutrition and hydration, having a well-balanced diet and staying hydrated can help to improve your overall performance and strength.

Finally, it's important to remember that power is not only about brute force, but also about technique, speed, and timing. Therefore, it's important to keep practicing and perfecting your technique, and work on your overall fitness and conditioning.
