Its interesting while were on the subject of the Head, what I now call the Oral Cavity. Thats where thought is transmitted, the body is there to carry it about its designed for that purpose the body. To give protection to the Head every movement when danger comes the 1st thought is to protect the Noggin. Its the Pscyhcodynamics of vision of the eyes that gives us warning. Thing is both eyes not seeing the same thing can be tricked because the eyes have only 1/6 of a second memory. There lies the Rub, thats Boxing, plus eyes are the slowest sense to respond to danger, its all interesting stuff.:good

 

Am i the only person who just did the chin thing and found it didn't affect my speed at all?

 

some idiots in another thread got upset with me bc i said i only used calistethcis and did not believe in weight training. I said i used pushups, pullups and practice explosion in my sparring with some good heavy 16 ounces gloves and they all got upset with me bc i did not approve of weights.

I actually agree with you 100%, practice the technique properly and explode when you practice it, just like sprinting.

I used to run with weights in my hand in the beginning it appears that you it improves your speed but after a while i noticed that the speed actually slowed my hands down. But when i stoppped using the weights, and went back to expoloding on the back and in the ring, my speed came back.
