Learn how contrast training boosts boxing speed, explosive power and knockout strength through Post Activation Potentiation (PAP). Train hard, fight easy with RJ Boxing S & C 💪🏾

 

 

Contrast training for boxing builds explosive power and speed by pairing heavy lifts with plyometric work. Learn how to apply it safely.

 

Boxing contrast training is one of the most effective boxing strength and conditioning methods to build explosive power, punch speed and knockout punching power. By combining heavy resistance exercises with fast controlled dynamic movements, boxers can develop faster reaction times and more powerful strikes helping them perform with explosive power inside the boxing ring. This is what wins fights in my opinion, its not just about having knockout power put also fast feet to really unleash on your opponent like Beterbiev against Bivol when he won the first fight as he was dominating the later rounds as he was pushing Bivol back looking more of the aggresser. Both these boxers do alot of strength and conditioning and look how athletic Beterbiev is, even now he is 40. Shame both are injured as we are awaiting the trilogy! The fight us boxing fans look forward too!

A good constrast I'm impressed with Bivol does is a heavy barbell bi-lateral calf raise into pogo jumps. This is the first time I have seen this constrast of him doing this constrast on social media.

This method also fires up the nervous system through Post Activation Potentiation (PAP). A proven technique that makes your body feel lighter, faster and more explosive with every movement. It’s the perfect bridge between boxing strength and speed training, giving you that edge to train hard and fight easy 💪🏾.

Contrast Training – Heavy Kettlebell Swing to Double Broad Jump 🏋🏾‍♂

This contrast utilizes strength and explosive power which is great for boxing that's why I'm raving on about it. The heavy kettlebell swing activates fast twitch muscle fibers,  followed by a double broad jump to release full power.  A key combo for boxers developing knockout power and lower body explosiveness. Add this into your boxing S&C mesocycle to boost performance and power output.

🥊 Contrast Sets for Boxing | Speed & Power

Boxing Contrast sets are all about combining strength and speed to build that real knockout power when pick your right moment. You’re moving from heavy lifts straight into explosive movements which activate your  fast twitch muscles to adapt to fire to hit harder when required to push your opponent back and score points. Or even better and stop them by putting them to sleep. It's training your nervous system to react like a boxer giving you powerful, punches and great conditioning to last longer in the ring if you train the right way like an athlete including explosive movements and not isolating the muscle and doing long eccentrics which will leave you sore and stiff. This will decrease boxing performance in the ring when training. Add these sets into your boxing S&C sessions to develop faster hands and stronger legs as your be more explosive,
