    Anymore?

    Fine tune your technique and practice it at angles. Most people can get themselves to when they can stand and throw a good punch but not so many can do it at angles.

      These are all upper-body workouts. You need to work on legs and core. Power is generated from the feet upwards and through the rotation of your body. Golovkin for example, has strong, sturdy legs and core. Do the following:

      Plank.
      Squats / burpies.
      Box jumps.
      Sprints will tugging weights.
      Lunges.
      Rotational sit-ups with weights.

        I have very good technique and angles but don't hit as hard as I should. I can barely do 20 press ups so I guess it's probably due to that

            Get your foundation strong bro! Your arms are at the end of the power generating mechanism.

              That isn't really strength, it's muscle endurance. If you can't punch as hard as you "should" be able to then you don't have your technique down. How long have you been training with a trainer? i'm guessing not very long if you can barely get in 20 push ups

                We don't work groundwork he believe a fighter should do his own groundwork so I do my own thing with that. I've had 84 amateur fights, won 76, so you're not talking to a newbie. If you want to DM and compare resume for resume instead of trying to make me look like an @ss lets do it. I just want to perfect my game for the pros and asked a harmless question.

                  Pushup pull ups running heavy bag

                  Out of the four...heavy bag is the most power and strength building. If you have a good heavy bag session... it develops your power..core..legs arms and chest. Its a full body workout done right.

                  Not a big believer in any weights. Muscle built from weightlifting is too tight to be effective. Should concentrate on building muscle for what you want to do. Intuitively... this means build your muscle DOING what you want to do.

                  If you want to lift a boulder. Lift weights... if you want to fight..build muscle training to fight.

                    Defensive much? It was a safe assumption that someone who can't do 20 f@cking push ups hasn't been training long. The conditioning from having 84 fights alone should give you the ability to **** out 20 ffs. Like I said, work on your technique. You clearly need to work on the basics like your ground work. If you plan on going pro and are content with your technique then you won't go too far. You need to thrive for excellence and continually try to improve. Worry about your damn lack of conditioning before your power.
