I would like to know if there are any good exercises to improve leg strength, particularly bending the knees. I am a taller fighter, and being so lanky, it is not natural for me to bend my knees as I should in boxing. In conjuction with the twisting of the hips with each punch, there is a need to bend the knees, which adds strength to the punches you throw.

So, do you have any suggestions for exercises to improve the legs, especially with bending the knees to increase power? The only thing I can think of is doing squats, any other ideas? Thanks!
