Answer 1

Twist your hips (technically your whole body) when giving a power punch. If you want it to be stronger, add a stomp to it.  But the ultimate secret to making your punch is through constant practice. Constant "proper" practice. ^_^

Good luck on your   quest.

Answer 2

OK someone asked this question today . Proper leverage and balance is the first thing get on the heavy bag 5 days a week and go 4or 5 three minute rounds on it put your whole body in every punch remember perfect practise makes perfect punches. When you jab with your left hand slide your left foot about a half step forward when you shoot your jab same thing with your right hand now remember when you were playing baseball and you were at bat how you turn your whole body when you swung the bat same thing with your left hook elbow slightly down the palm of your hand should be facing your face when you throw your right hand punch through the bag and roll your shoulder forward when delivering the blow this should help you a great deal let us know how it works

Answer 3

As the others have said, leverage is the key. Study clips of Mike Tyson, and you can see how he generated the power he did.

A good exercise to do is squats. This will strengthen your legs, and the more you can push with your legs, the more rooted you'll be and the more weight you can put behind your punches.

Of course you'll have to work on the technique to best utilise the strong legs, which are arguably more important for punching power than strong arms.

Answer 4

If you are still oyung your arms will develop naturally so just keep working at it and they will naturally grow.

Good Luck

Answer 5
