Which muscle makes you punch harder ?

Question

Which muscle should i train to make my punches harder ?

Answer 1

The gluteus maximus aka the butt. When you extend for a punch the kentic energy shoots from your gluteus maximus down to your leg and through your arm to give you the power for a punch. This Kentic energy allows you to get good leverage. So technically its not a muscle but the muscle that helps you get the leverage is The  Gluteus Maximus.
