The majority of punching power comes from your hips and thighs...

 

[AngryMuscles]

feet placement, hips, thighs, timing

national geographic special: fight science. quite interesting too! part 1 covers the punching power and it involves boxing too..so that might help. enjoy

 

[ManOfMuscle]

Vegas is right. Like any explosive movement the primary source of power is the core. Also remember force = mass x acceleration so more speed and/or more mass equals a stronger punch.

you could watch angry's boxing video he posted up the other day. he has the eye of the tiger.

that was pretty obvious bro.

 

[AngryMuscles]

no money for boxing lessons at all. i hate money!

 

[Skarhead1]

I used to box... 80% of the punch is all form IMO... Also, the stronger my lower body and core got the harder my punches got

 

[AngryMuscles]

That second kid had some decent looking kicks.

 

[AngryMuscles]

yup. he's my best friend, ruel and he has practiced muay thai, basics. sadly, due to our financial struggles and schedule and his mom arguing about him wasting his money on muay thai, he stopped now.

[AngryMuscles]

[simpllyhuge]
