Everything you do, you should ask your self how will it help you do be strong during a round, deliver a punch with speed and power etc ;)

Not the worse I've seen, to watch at least any way... snapping your arm in half is snapping your arm in half :P

Re: Strength is nothing with out technique
a lot of guys have the wrong kind of strength. Now that I've taken up boxing, I'll never lift a weight that I can't lift explosively. My theory is that if you can't lift it such that they load would fly out of control if you weren't holding onto it, it's too much weight and is targeting your slow twitch too much. My other theory, whch seems to be supported by my reading, is that you should elift working backwards, with the reps staying the same but the weight decreasing... and eventually leaving you with next to nothing. Therefore the fast twitch is being worked more and more with every set.
For example, a clap push-up is far better than struggling to bench 300lb for one rep. The muscle head benching 300lb might be strong as an ox but he's got hands as slow as S***.

Pretty much like masturbation it sounds to me

there's obviously a meaing to the work masturbation that I'm not aware of.
