im a tall, skinny guy, but i dont consider myself VERY fast. i notice that my strongest punch is usually my first punch. and im not very good at connecting with combos or being able to throw multiple strong punches.

i was watching clips of mike tyson training and he can throw 5-7 different punches in a row lightning quick. and it looks like every punch he threw was full force and could knock some one out.

what or how should i train if i want to be able to throw multiple punches quickly but with a lot of power also? work out my core? weights? free weights? cardio? tips and suggestions please.

  1. build your bicepts and forearms. make sure to focus on where you land your punches


  2. train like a boxer.. here's a couple of vids.  NOTE that you can train for EXPLOSIVE POWER with very little gear, very little expense.. i highly recommend the Sledgehammer and Sandbag techniques.  these two vids will get you started.  beyond this, just search youtube for "sledgehammer" , "sandbag training" etc...

  3. Balance and pivot excercises with a medicine ball

  4. Ginkgo Biloba and Vitamin B will help you out regardless how little you train because it reduces fatigue so even if you're exercising and training 1 hour a way, you'll see gain more than if you train 4-5 hours a day without Vitamin B. Oh, remember to HYDRATE!
