Boxing Explosive KO Power: Plyometric Push Up Exercise.

For us competent strength/conditioning coaches this is a basic plyometric exercise, well, there are coaches who still can’t coach plyometrics but not to the extent as many boxing trainers.

I know this as I have been to several coaching clinics where they were teaching pre plyometrics or warm ups and not true plyometrics.

Some coaches think they can have their fighters toss a medicine ball around and that’s a plyometic movement, or they have them jump around and they think hell, we’re training for power.

In this clip Micah demonstrates a plyo push up. Coaching cues here that can be used is the ground is hot, emphasize speed as I do in this clip. Remember, no matter what rep selection you choose or time you use, terminate the exercise if form breaks and speed slows.
