For american football and rugby
Fill a rugby ball with sand and seal it again
You can do this by cutting an x into the ball and then put sand in it
using a funnel
Note that some rugby balls might be hard to fill or aren't qualified for this kind of thing
Hold the heavier ball and run around with it do sprint starts and do the agility ladder
If you hold the normall ball after doing it with a heavier ball it
will feel like a feather.
You can just train with a normall ball and sometimes with a heavier ball here and there.
You can also fill up a baseball with sand, it will weigh around 5 or 10 kilogram
I forgot the weight
It's harder to hold and will really train the holding of the rugby ball
You can also do the agility ladder with this and run around the distances ran over the field
You can also just use a medicine ball

backward sprint starts for shot put glide
For the glide shot put technique
Do backward sprint starts for the glide
Will increase power and explosive power
Sometimes do a backward 20 to 40 meter dash with explosive start
Be careful not to stop abruptly as that is bad for the knees and hips

Small boxing handbook 11
Small boxing handbook 11
By JJefArt Jeffrey Koelewijn
Tip:
Don't foget the groin guard
Something to know
Boxing, also called; pugilism, prize fighting, the sweet science or in Greek pygmachia
The earliest known depiction of boxing comes from a Sumerian relief from the 3rd millennium BC
Later depictions from the 2nd millennium BC are found in reliefs from the Mesopotamian nations
of Assyria and Babylonia, and in Hittite art from Asia Minor
Boxing was part of the greeck olympics
Boxing was a popular spectator sport in Ancient Rome
I forgot a couple of things in small boxing handbook 10 when it comes to knuckles and punching
In bare knuckle punching the head it's possible to hit only with the middle finger knuckle
or only with the pointing finger knuckle
-Though this is pretty dangerous as you might injure that knuckle
And sometimes only the middle finger and ring finger knuckle will make contact
or only the pinky and ring finger knuckles
You can also just punch randomly or just punch
Slipping
rotates the body slightly so that an incoming punch passes harmlessly next to the head.
As the opponent's punch arrives, the boxer sharply rotates the hips and shoulders
This turns the chin sideways and allows the punch to "slip" past
A slipper will also most likely be a good counter puncher
Most of the time a slipper will immediately strike their opponent back
Sway or fade
To anticipate a punch and move the upper body or head back so that it misses
or has its force appreciably lessened
Also called "rolling with the punch" or " Riding The Punch''
Duck or break
To drop down with the back straight so that a punch aimed at the head glances or misses entirely
Bob and weave
Bobbing moves the head laterally and beneath an incoming punch
As the opponent's punch arrives, the boxer bends the legs quickly and simultaneously
shifts the body either slightly right or left
Once the punch has been evaded, the boxer "weaves" back to an upright position,
emerging on either the outside or inside of the opponent's still-extended arm
To move outside the opponent's extended arm is called "bobbing to the outside"
To move inside the opponent's extended arm is called "bobbing to the inside"
The cover-Up
Covering up is the last opportunity (other than rolling with a punch)
to avoid an incoming strike to an unprotected face or body
Generally speaking, the hands are held high to protect the head and chin and the forearms
are tucked against the torso to impede body shots
When protecting the body, the boxer rotates the hips and lets incoming punches
"roll" off the guard. To protect the head, the boxer presses both fists against the front
of the face with the forearms parallel and facing outwards
This type of guard is weak against attacks from below
Philly Shell or Shoulder roll defense
This is actually a variation of the cross-arm defense
The lead arm (left for an orthodox fighter and right for a southpaw)
is placed across the torso usually somewhere in between the belly button and chest and the
lead hand rests on the opposite side of the fighter's torso. The back hand is placed
on the side of the face (right side for orthodox fighters and left side for southpaws)
The lead shoulder is brought in tight against the side of the face
(left side for orthodox fighters and right side for southpaws)
This style is used by fighters who like to counterpunch
Check hook
A check hook is employed to prevent aggressive boxers from lunging in
There are two parts to the check hook
The first part consists of a regular hook
The second, trickier part involves the footwork
As the opponent lunges in, the boxer should throw the hook and pivot on his left foot
and swing his right foot 180 degrees around
If executed correctly, the aggressive boxer will lunge in and sail harmlessly
past his opponent like a bull missing a matador
This is rarely seen in professional boxing
as it requires a great disparity in skill level to execute
Technically speaking it has been said that there is no such thing as a check hook
and that it is simply a hook applied to an opponent that has lurched forward and past
his opponent who simply hooks him on the way past
Others have argued that the check hook exists but is an illegal punch due to it
being a pivot punch which is illegal in the sport
Overhand right
The overhand right is a punch not found in every boxer's arsenal
Unlike the right cross, which has a trajectory parallel to the ground,
the overhand right has a looping circular arc as it is thrown over-the-shoulder
with the palm facing away from the boxer
It is especially popular with smaller stature boxers trying to reach taller opponents

Parrying
It's almost like a block but you're slightly deflecting your opponents punch away with your hand.
A small parry can take the power away of the opponents punch
And a big parry can guide your opponent off balance and make him vulnerable using
his own momentum
Long armed punchers are more vulnerable to parrying as it takes longer for them to
retract their arm
It doesn't work well to light punches
The palms forward guard
A guard where the palms face forward and are slightly in front of the face at or just above or
below eye height
Normally used in thai boxing
Can be an effective guard for parrying
Knuckles and punching
It could be effective with bare knuckle boxing fights but now with gloves it actualy
cares less with what knuckles you hit your opponenent
You can hit your opponent with the knuckles of the pinky, ring and middle finger knuckles
You can hit your opponent with the two front knuckles pointing and middle finger knuckles
wich ads more piercing power because of the smaller surface area
You can hit your opponent with the pointing, middle and ring finger knuckles
In bare knuckle at places like the abdominals all five knuckles can make contact but
with bare knuckle hitting the face normally only two or three knuckles will make contact
Some trainers prefer their athletes to hit with the two front knuckles other prefer
them hitting with the middle, ring and pinky finger knuckles
The knuckles and punches
You can just hit your opponent randomly
It's fun to know but it's not really helpfull in gloved boxing
Although hitting with the two front knuckles pointing and middle finger knuckles,
can give more piercing power(less surface area)
And on the other hand punching with as many knuckles as possible can create
a better push punch
Something to know
Boxing is often called the manly art of self-defense
Apron is the part of the ring canvas outside the ropes
The ring floor is called canvas
Break is a referee's order for boxers to step back and seperate
if they are in a clinch
Tips to not get countered throwing a jab
Don't telegraph, don't make it predictable
Get a faster jab
If you have a slow jab chances of getting countered are higher
One reason why a jab might be slow might be because of too much tension
or pushing the jab instead of snapping
If you throw a power punch jab push punch is more effective
Another way to increase jab speed is using less hip rotation
it decreases the power a little bit but can increase speed if done correctly
it's less predictable and you will use less energy
If you want to throw a knock out jab you probably need as much hip rotation
Throw a jab with more commitment
Recover quicker and better
Don't always aim at the same place
-Unless he has a certain weakspot or opening in his guard offcourse
Feints and then a jab
Some times feints jab feints jab
The feint jab feint jab feint jab and then jab
The feint jab feint jab and then jab
Boxers who use this technique constantly seem to throw half jabs
and then suddenly a jab
This behaviour can be very confusing to the opponent
Tip
Don't always lead with a jab
Some times throw another punch at first then a jab
Other tip:
You can use a jab to set up a power punch, knock out punch
modern boxings prizefighting predecessor in which bareknuckled pugilists fought to exhaustion,
with fights often lasting several hours
A round ended only when one combatant was floored
he then had half a minute's respite before placing his toe
on a line scratched across the centre of the ring and resuming battle
There were no wins on points those days

information on punching out candle flames
A candle flame can be punched out and is a good speed training
Best done wearing a dust mask so that breathing out while punching does not effect the
candle flame
Bare arms so that clothing especially long sleeves don't drag wind to the candle flame
In a room with closed windows, the candle flame should be still if it/they flicker around
there already is wind acting on the candles
Can be done with two types of punches:
The normal punch where the fist is closed (a little bit relaxed)
The whip punch or snap punch where the fist closes at one of the latest stages of the punch
Can be done from two guards:
From a boxing, kickboxing, mma guard
And with the fist at the side of the body
Used in karate
This way the fist travels a further distance
Can be done in two ways:
Extending the arm, making the punch and then holding the arm extended
Extending the arm and then rapidly pull it back to the guard
A normal punch
If you want to measure the distance you can stick out your fist, extend the arm and
measure the distance
Another thing to think about is the distance between the fist and the candle
Other interesting ways to punch out a candle
In horse stance
While kneeling
The one inch punch
Spear hand
With the palm of the hand
With the palm already facing the candle
With the palm facing the ground and then facing the candle
Multiple punches
Multipe punches and multiple candle lights
From a distance like 50 cm away from the candle or 100 to 200 cm away from the candle
Punching out 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or even 6 candle flames
The distance between each candle
Put against each other
With 1 cm or 2 of space in between
With 2 to 10 cm of space in between
With 10 to 20 cm of space in between
Types of candles
Tea lights
Long thin round ones
Thick round candles with a stronger brighter flame
Maybe a garden torch is possible
But be carefull not to knock it down or anything

The snap punch or whip punch
Normally the fist is somewhat relaxed and closed or almost closed
before punching and at the beginnning or around quarter ways to half ways the fist is closed
With the snap punch the fist only closes just before impact
A whipping sound can be heard if done bare knuckle and correctly
Although this type of punch is more effective bare knuckled it can still be used with gloves
two types of whip punches
One where the hand travels like a normall punch but closes just before impact
One where the hand is ''dragged'' to increase tension and the use of the
myotatic reflex(in a light form and the build up of energy
and also closes just before impact
Tip:
Don't tense up too much
Ways to get out of the corner
There are basicly four ways to get out of the corner
To the right
Normally the side of the opponents jab
To the left
Normally the side of the right cross or powerpunch with the back leg
Getting out through the right is safer as you don't walk in to a right
cross or power punch but there normally is a little less space then going out through
the left
Getting out through the left normally has a little bit more space but
you can walk in to a right cross or right powerpunch
The other two ways
By pushing the opponent backwards by punching and getting the upperhand
By clinching
Making a feint by acting like you go out one way but then go out the other way can
also be effective
If you can't get out you can always shell up and maybe do rope-a-dope in the corner by letting
the corner absorb most of the punching power
And while shelled up sometimes oppertunities come, like the opponent letting down his guard to much
or an opening to get out of the corner
Also if you first ropa-a-dope or shell up good enough the opponent looses a great deal of energy
punching and after that chances of getting out might be bigger
Breathing
Normally you breath out a little bit with a punch, with each punch
offcourse you also take air in you need air
Some people make a sissing sound when punching
Sometimes a powerpunch is done while holding the breath to build up energy
Also the breathing out with a powerpunch is a little bit different it's hard to
explain but more pressure is build up and so the breathing out is done a little bit
differently
Tip:
Doing breath exercises can improve performance
Other tip:
Practicing on holding your breath can improve stamina
Be carefull not to hurt yourself with this training gains come through time
-Don't do this in a training session/workout that might-would be dangerous
Two types of muscle tissue
Type I
Type II
IIa, IIb, IIab
It depends on the type of training that is done
which type grows mainly
So basicly muscle fibers can be converted and muscles can grow
Which type of growth and which type of fiber depends on the type of training
A new training can also induce hyperthrophy or conversion
Hyperthropy, muscle growth
Two types of muscle growth
Myofibrial
Increase in muscle fibers
Sarcoplasmic
Growth of the cell
It depends on the training which type of muscle growth is growing
Bodybuilders tend to have a lot of sarcoplasmic type of growth
But offcourse also myofibrial
Both forms of hyperthrophy can grow at the same time
Multipe punches with one hand, normally the jab hand
can be done with a normal guard or something like a cross guard
Flickr punching
Is done with one hand normally the jab hand
Is most sucsesfully done by people with long arms
Can be done with a normal guard or something like a cross guard
Flickr punching is making a lot of random punches after each other with one hand in a special way
Two ways
By pulling the hand back completely to the guard position
By pulling back half way or three quarter ways (or even quarter ways)
By pulling back less the next punch can be made faster though
the less pullback the less force the next punch will have
One punch that can also be made during flickr punching is hitting with the upside of the hand
(with the knuckles)
Flickr punching is somewhat loose and flexible
Flickr punching is making a lot of random different kind of punches from different angles
And offcourse a double of the same punch is possible
The bowie punch is also seen during flickr punching
If you want to sucsesfully flickr punch you also need to have good eyes as you need to
make use of every opening in the guard with the loose and flexible punches you can get through small
openings
Can be very effective if power punches are used here and there at openings
Flickr punching is a lot harder than it sounds and looks and needs a lot of training
And it needs to fit the fighters fighting style
The double jab guard breaker
one or two punches of the double jab guard breaker can look somewhat like
a push punch
Mostly the hand is not pulled back to the guard position and the punch already starts
quarter or half way back
Mostly it's a direct punch in a downward angle
