Trick to Triple Wrist Strength #fitness #boxing #martialarts #karate #kungfu #workout #mma #karate

Most martial artists make a fist, they show you even in boxing manuals.

Roll the knuckles in Iyama's book which came out in 1960 from Tuttle.

You lock the thumb over and touch his middle finger.

You see the Goju punching their symbol, the fist is like this.

That's incorrect.

Notice the distance between, now these are corporals, you've got eight corporals, five middle corporals, these bones right here, okay?

Now see the gap between, now these corpus turn into flanges.

See this knuckle here which formed by this flange, bone, and this metacorpus.

See that joint there?

See that knuckle joint there?

See the gap between those two?

Between here and there?

The further that gap, the weaker this muscle becomes, okay?

So notice when I open my hands up, see how flat that is in there?

But when I put these two joints together, see how they pop

The closer these two knuckles come together, the stronger this part of your wrist right here is going to be.

This is where a guy's wrist is weak, right there, okay?

And there's a muscle in here called pronator teres.

It attaches about here.

It comes underneath one of the flexors.

It comes across the hand this way.

That muscle is designed to rotate the wrist like so.

That's what that muscle does.

Now, when those muscles are deactivated, because you're stretching them out too far, these... Make a fist.

Hold your hand out like that.

What you want to do when you wrap your hands is you want to pull these knuckles, these metacorpals, tight together and lock them in with these eight corporal muscles back here.

The tighter those bones, the less chance you're going to break one.

Now, I want to show you something.

I want you to make a fist.

Okay?

And let that thumb roll over and touch the middle thing like that.

Alright?

And keep it like that.

That's the incorrect way.

Hold your fist level like that.

And I'm going to try to bend your wrist with one hand.

Keep it straight.

Don't let it be bent.

I just want to see how strong the wrist is.

Okay?

Let's just see.

Pull the hand back over so you remember this.

Make the fist again, this time we're gonna do it correctly.

Watch what I do.

If I put the thumb on top of the hand, that pushes all those knuckles together.

And see how this is much closer between these two?

But that's incorrect, because you throw a body punch, you're gonna break your thumb.

That's incorrect, so let's go right in the middle.

And this flange right here, you got a little, right there with this finger.

See it?

I want that little gap to go right against that thing like that.

Push it down like so for 45 to a minute.

Now block the thumb down, push in, 45 to a minute.

You see how your fist is now?

Get in.

See it?

Just a little bit higher so you really push it more down there.

There you go.

Right in there, just like that.

See it?

Now roll your fist over.

Now see the difference.

Hold it tight.

See the difference?
