@@monster17368 iv seen femail boxers using a EZ curl bar (olympic) with 5kgs either side and punching and the girl in question elisha baumgarden hits hard👊

@@theovela6655 Well I think you have to build up the muscle you are using and punching uses quick twitch muscles but if the weight is too heavy, you are no longer working the fast twitch muscles and now are working the normal strength muscles. My theory is, use a bit of weight just over what feels normal when punching and work to make those weights feel normal to punch with, then go up a step in weight until that feels like the new normal and the punches feel quick and accurate. I’d like to say this would just take a few weeks but realistically, it would take months to have noticeable improvement. Like when you hit the gym for the first time in a while it feels like you’re making good progress and are putting on muscle but it’s going to take months for you to actually build the muscles the way your brain thinks they’ve been building.

Who knew an impromptu backyard video would be one of our top viewed still 2 years later. Scares me that our regular content doesn't compare! Hahaha 😉

Anatomically, bands can increase your serratus anterior strength (boxer's muscles). Which is a great additive to training.

Toning and better physical conditioning, so not a bad thing!

@@wadocombatcanada Better physical condition is what you need as a boxer or MMA without tiring and throwing more punches especially if they land wins you fights, right?

Absolutely fine to do a couple times a week as long as you're not overloading the muscles. Unfortunately just one time too heavy can cause damage.

go up

It's all individual - doesnt sound too much, but if you have a muscle imbalance or a weak muscle that is requiring other muscles to do its job, then even a can of soup could be the right weight. When in doubt - seak help from a health professional/physiotherapist, etc! They can help you determine what is right for your body.

I punches with weights 4 times per week and got incredibly powerful

@@floatiner how does it affect ur speed thats what im looking for because ive gotten my power down, im increasing it still but you know.

@@aptafy7167 I quit cus I got a back injury from lifting so I can't really help u However it did help me win a boxing tournament against my mates

😆 some people deserve a good weight punch!

We did - but it's more than a yes or no answer, unfortunately.

@@wadocombatcanada ANSWER MY QUESTION …..

Dude, you’re clearly touched in the head!

Curious, where does the inaccuracies accumulate from?

Bench press makes you punch harder? Pushup is basically an inverted bench press, no? So will weighted pushups do the trick?

@@smart-ass8518 , tbh, weighted push-ups are awkward to perform, no? And you can only add so much weight. If you have allergic reactions to bench pressing, i would choose weighted dips. Everything that makes you actually stronger will add to your punch, look at the physical formula for kinetic energy. Problem is, boxers are the most stubborn breed of them all to this kind of thinking. Every track and field athlete knows this, even byciclists are doing anabolic steroids. Even this skinny guys that run marathon are doing strength training nowadays, just boxers be like: nah, i do processing wood with an axe and i'll be fine. Or doing boxing movements with light weights, or some such shit. According to the logic of this, all i need is a pair of pencils and doing even more reps, a million per day, no? Well, pencils and 5lbs dumbells don't make anybody stronger, or faster. Fast movements are done with your muscles, believe me or not, and you train your muscles the most effective way with heavy loads on the basic compound movements, and if you don't want to add weight, bcs of your weight class, you even add a few pounds to the barbell so your rep range is two to three repetitions. This way, you will get stronger without building more muscle mass. I was not only a boxer, when i was young, but also a track and field thrower, shot put and discus. There was'nt even a question, the stronger you get, the further you throw. Just boxers are..... ahhh, i give up. I will not bring one boxer to a proper strength training regime, so i'm wasting my time here. By the way, i am a boxing trainer in an MMA gym in Vienna, and ALL of my students are doing strength training now, after seeing me destroying one heavy bag after another in a matter of weeks. 52yo, still plenty of punching power.
