Power Training Tips

[jbarnescombat]

*Learn to generate more power by focusing on mastery of body mechanics. Learn how to leverage your full weight in your power attacks.
*Leverage modern training equipment (heavy bag, punching dummy, focus mitts, etc) to accelerate and maximize power development.
*Train to increase your movement speed. Power equals speed x weight. A faster fighter is potentially a more explosive fighter.
*Get stronger through resistance training. Science has proven that a stronger fighter is faster and more powerful.
*Develop power weapons for all fighting ranges in order to maximize knockout proficiency. Consider cross-training in different combat systems.
*Spar full-contact regularly so that you can learn how to use (and counter) power in a real fight/bout.
*Train with a partner who is stronger and more powerful to accelerate your progress.
*Become a student of combat power by studying the most effective knockout artists. This will increase your power IQ.

This is 20 X more important than all the others put together when it comes to generating power.

The hallmark of practise is, as Pierre Bourdieu contends, that it follows "a logic that is performed directly in bodily gymnastics" without the intervention of discursive consciousness and reflective explication, that is, by excluding the contemplative and de-temporalizing posture of the theoretical gaze . . . . . . in other words, tout your wares elsewhere Barnesy.

resistance training -1.
train with stronger/powerful oopponents -1.

u want to train for fast twitch muscle fibers not muscles to lift... unless you are skin and bones and need some foundation.. but since this is a "Power Training tips", no.

train with stronger/powerful opponents? wat the **** is this bull****?
train with smaller/faster guys to learn to time faster ppl. train with bigger/powerful boxers to learn to take shots.
train with someone who is experienced and can see your flaws/exploit them so you can learn from ur mistakes...

full contact sparring regularly? i dont see much power being acquired from that. i see brain damage lol

power does not equal weight x speed.....
power = work over time... ma*d/t = fv
"power equals mass x accel. x velocity"

most power is generated from rotation.
elastic energy is powerful **** u want to learn to apply.

does the writer of the book even box wtf

lol? If you want to be a world class fighter than you have to spar daily when in training. Your eyes/timing will never adjust if you don't, as well it is THE BEST way to build endurance for fighting. Brain Damage LoL?............Rockin'

Hard sparring everyday is a no. Light sparring, go for it.

If you hard spar everyday I gaurentee you will end up with some type of brain damage. When you are hard sparring you are pretty much fighting, your brain cant take shots like that everyday and not take damage.

As far as weights, lets take sprinters for example. Most of there speed comes naturally, and practicing sprints. Everything else is just working on shaving fractions of seconds off their time (of course these fractions of seconds can matter, especially at a world class level).

Sprinters can lift all they want but they wont improve unless they go out and practice sprinting. In turn, they can never lift a weight but go out, practice sprinting and still put on speed.

The weights can help, yes. But its not what you want to focus on to work on power.

So if you want to work on power get on the heavy bag. I don't think anything can come close to the heavy as far as working on power (once you have proper technique).
