How To Build Knockout Power With Three Easy Exercises
Ever throw a punch?
Any martial artist worth their salt will quickly tell you that the secret in maximizing damage is turning on and off your muscles -- kinda like a switch. In traditional karate, throwing a solid right hand should begin with force at the bottom of your right foot, up through your abdominal core then straight through the knuckles. Speed equates to power. And to do that, your muscles have to be extremely relaxed. Consider a world class striker like Mohammed Ali. While it's entirely possible that the Strongmen you see on TV can lift more then Ali, none can match the striking power he delivers. Ali knows when to tighten up his glutes, abdominals and lats the exact moment he lands a punch.
Incorporate these exercises into your training regiment and then show yourself off at the MMA gym.

Exercise 3
Glutes-Abs-Lats Brace (The Broomstick Exercise)
Stand with your back straight. Make sure your feet are at shoulder width. Take a broomstick and hold it at its ends, chest level. Squeeze your glutes together.Next, tighten your abs up. Kinda like what you'd do if someone was going to hit you.
Afterwards, contract your lats by attempting to bend the broomstick.
When you've gotten the hang of it, attempt to tense up all three areas simultaneously. Don't go at a full 100%. You'll tire out too quickly.

- Why Fedor Is The Best Pound-For-Pound Fighter On The Planet
- Everyone's got someone on their minds. Anderson Silva. George St.-Pierre. Lyoto Machida. Miguel Torres. But Fedor has some sort of irrefutable quality that somehow makes him better then all the fighters in the MMA, cage fighting world. My thoughts on the greatest mixed martial artist alive today.
