Just for the comment from boxinglad, ive seen you on the bag and trust me technique ****s your wrist, ive never known elbow placement as bad on a right hand before, let me guess its your right that causes most problems because its oh so powerful? lmao And for ylem put up a video mate and ill spend an hour showing you exactly where you need work i can guarantee your technique is shite because you dont even have the basic knowledge to grasp what me and virus are telling you.
Haha this is funny now where finding out what kind of guy you really are.. well ive done martial arts since i was 8 (over 16 years), ive done thai boxing 5 years im a blackbelt 1st dan in TaeKwonDo and have been for 12 years i also competed in over 30 tournements and competitions in the WTF and im currently training with a well respected pro boxing coach to learn how to train boxers and box myself and im now 24. So now weve got that load of **** out of the way.. ill try to educate you once again.. here goes. The post about range has everything to do with strengthening the forarms.. i was just trying to explain it like you would to a child.. maybe it was too complicated yet again. Range has everything to do with not needing to strengthen the wrists if range is messed up (smothered) then so is your wrist, even with correct technique. thats what i was saying.. understand? And finally Ylem US real fighters wear hand wraps because we dont just hit heavy bags and walls/dummys we hit unpredictably moving opponents that can sometimes cause missed shots or inaccurate connections on elbows, faces, shoulders, etc. are you sure youve done any sort of martial art before? and im not talking about the non functional **** im on about the real combat sport types which are tried and tested in the ring or octagon. this is like talking to my 3 yr old son but slower. waiting for those vids of yours ylem you can show us all how you punch these walls and work the bag without wraps, you hardman you. but wasnt you just arguing that you need wraps? confusing.. anyway re read my origional post and educate yourself further in boxing till you have the basics down enough to understand what im trying to explain. please do this before replying to my post because your clearly just making a fool of yourself and are in over your head around here.
such a physic. really i mess up my wrist on 2 occasions. 1, around the time of my most recent bag video i had placed a 22 lb lead weight wrapped in 10 lb ankle weights (to coushin the blow if i ancedentally hit the lead weight) and hitting this unevenness in the bag caused a few wrist issues. since then ive simply replaced just about everything in the bag with sand and i dont have any issues. 2, some times ill throw the left hook alittle late as the bag swings back and just catch it at a wrong angle in the concret like sand and roll my wrist. never had a problem with my right though. man for having such horrible form according to you...i should really count my self lucky never injuring it. im at work, ill have the videos up as soon as i get home. and range still has nothign to do with your wrist forearm and hand being more elastic at impact when you are in proper range as one would assume we are talking about people who know how to punch and are in proper range and wheter or not strengetening their forearm will improve their punch, not some one with strong fore arms who cant punch to some one with weak fore arms who can but some one with strong fore arms who can punch compared to some one with weak forearms who can punch. so really nothing in your post has to do with strengtheing forearms, and essentially to sum up your whole post you could have just said "some one with proper technique and range can punch harder then some one with out proper techinque and range."
Hand wraps are for support. But like I said earlier you can have the strongest wrists/forearms in the world but if you don't know how to punch you will injure yourself. The point is you maintain a straight line from your elbow to your wrist to your knuckles, you don't require much strength at all to do this. If your wrist is bent when you make contact with a punch it's down to bad technique, not weak forearms. Do you understand yet?
why does it matter where i work? yeh i work for nasa....i got autograped pictures from buzz aldrin and alan shepard.....ill post them up after i put my videos up. oh yeah, and john glenn.
yeah thats great.... but it dosnt matter if you dont know how to punch....if you dont know how to punch you should be asking how to punch not if strengething your forearms improves your punch. as the question is something about strengthening your forearms and if it improves your punch one would assume the asker knows how to punch. sooo lets say both people know how to punch, is the guy with the strong fore arm going to have a more solid fist wrist and forearm then some one with a weak fore arm? what about after 5 rounds in, when your fore arm is getting weak and your form starts to get alittle sloppy? who has the better punch now? strong forearms or weak forearms......
I dont think he'll ever understand virus, hes just going to spread miss-information and cause people injuries with all the crap hes talking about punching sand, simple physics enough force built up and somthing is going to conform to the shape of whatever its coming into contact with and sand is pretty strong when tightly bound, idiot.
Most people, like yourself, think they know how to punch. If you knew how to punch you wouldn't ask half the questions you do. The original question was "is strengthening the forearms important" It was you that started with the whole "it needs to be done for improving punches" BS. Far more factors in a fight than who has stronger forearms. You really are going to stupid extremes to make yourself look right. Again, stupid, pointless extremes. You've proved nothing, ever.
what about my right and my **** form? wernt you wrong just a second ago? seems we skipped that just like how we skipped how you make stupid assumptions like how a person who wants to know if strengtheing their forearm has any use in boxing inheriently dosnt know how to throw a punch. and how about you point out where i reccomend hitting sand to any one? i guess your wrong about that too.
i claimed it needs to be done? i simply pointed out what it does and stated its not pointless. you guys are awesome at putting words in my mouth. so "is strengthening the forearms important"? apparently not to you....
And yes better technique with under developed forarms is better than strong forarms and poor technique after 5 rounds, that is so stupid you clearly dont understand what good technique is and what it does for you just from that statement alone.
