Striking workout w/ dumbbells for speed and power

I use 5lb weights, but it's good to start lower and work towards them. Small correction, we actually do 2 minute rounds with 4 thirty second workouts within that 2 minute round, then you do either jumprope, shadowboxing, or running for about 1 minute or so between these 2 minute rounds.
This is definatly a great exercise, I've seen a very big difference in my power and speed.

Dude! Finally someone who listens to metal! Everyone listens to that rap crap while training. I seriously wonder how they do it, rap does not pump me up, metal does. I like to listen to Walk by Pantera while boxing or any Lamb of God song.

Awesome workouts btw.

@himl994 lol...yeah I love metal, motivation is important when you train, i push much harder when 1) i have awesome music and 2) i have a team behind me. Hip-hop is cool for grappling, put on mathmatics by mos def and I'll tap rickson out

Awesome video man, could this work with striking using elbows as well as punching?

[psykojojo]

@EricSemenko if you do it properly and push yourself this will help explosive power in all kinds of areas
