http://kbandstraining.com/how-to-punch-faster-resisted-torque-punches/ Combat sports are all about utilizing the torque/ rotational force of your core trunk for punching faster and packing powerful blows. In this video, we will teach you how to generate extra velocity by rotating your shoulders and torso in order to increase your punching power. The key lies in realizing that you need to tap the strength of your upper body to create the torque needed to produce a knockout punch. By using a Kbands Victory Ropes, we will add resistance to get you punching faster. By adding resistance, we will challenge the core muscles of our body that are engaged in the rotational movement, resulting in an increase in the speed and sending you on your way to punching faster. We begin by strapping on one end of the Kbands Victory Ropes to a sturdy anchor while keeping the other end in our hands. We need to walk as far away from the rope as possible so that the rope is stretched to the maximum, intensifying the resistance in your workout. About the stance - the legs are wide apart; one hand pulls the anchor strap while the other is shoulder width apart. Try to maintain the gap between your hand and your chest during your forward rotational movement. To get the maximum velocity out of your core, make sure that while rotating, you vault through with your hips, turn the back foot over and accelerate the hand forward.  Now that you are aware of the right technique, you know how to punch faster, try to improve it with practice. For about 20 seconds on each side, you should be very explosive for 3-5 sets. Of course, speed is but one element that decides the effectiveness of your punch. There are several other factors at play, such as endurance, conditioning, strength and explosiveness. Each of these elements is crucial to delivering that knockout, winning punch. In this video, we have amply covered the technique of punching faster.
