In the martial arts, hand speed is a determining factor. According to experienced boxers, anyone can increase their punching speed by following the principles of training. Many believe that speed training is almost one hundred percent psychological. In any case, in order to achieve the result, you have to adhere to a certain program.
Instructions
Step 1
Learn to watch the professionals.
Step 2
Use smooth, flowing strokes. The Chinese flowing style is much more powerful than traditional karate or boxing strikes because it is generated by impulse. This is how the brain and nervous system are trained to deliver quick blows. To get the result, do the "smooth" exercise. Include consistent movements in it. Start with a few strokes at a time. When you bring the technique to automatism, start adding more movements, then a little more. Your subconscious mind must learn to link each separate blow into one stream. After a while, you will be able to do 15-20 full movements in a matter of seconds.
Step 3
Focus your aggression. You must be able to instantly switch from a passive state to an active alert state. Attack before the enemy predicts your actions. Doubts about your ability to respond must be removed through mental preparation before you enter a stressful state. Calculate so that your reaction time to any movement is one-sixth of one second, in which you perceive the threat, make a decision, and act. Maintain a constant state of readiness, be extremely attentive. Any person can combine physical, psychological and emotional stress under one condition in direct confrontation with the enemy. Try to force the feeling of combat, the environment and sounds in your brain center with an effort of will. Repeat this exercise until you are ready to immerse yourself in this mental attitude at any time.
Step 4
Take ready-made racks that provide choice. Your stance should be capable of chopping, clawing, elbowing or thrusting depending on your opponent's attack. Learn to choose a position that allows you to catch your opponent off guard.
Step 5
Don't get caught up in the psychology of one fatal blow. Your attack must have a specific sequence of three hits.
Step 6
Practice a visualization exercise. Think you are hitting as fast as possible. Stop and describe the color of your car. Then your breakfast. The part of the brain responsible for the reproduction of images can be fine-tuned. So you will learn to imagine a real fight, to feel that your actions are reaching targets.
