How fast does a punch generally travel?

I know at first the idea sounds crazy, but with your eyes open the body cant see the distace of a shot when shadow boxing. When shut the senses which react faster Touch and feel take over you are more aware of what the body is trying to achieve, plus your posture improves as does speed and power

Interesting Scrap. Oddly, I actually believe you this time.

So how can the boys and girls utilize this info when on the mits or in sparring or a real fight. Should we see "Beyond" the target.

When I played baseball, my accuracy was big league, but I didn't look at the target. The target simply faded into the background, became hazy, and I aimed for an imaginary 4' by 4' box that I positioned in my mind about 90% of the distance. Then I simply threw the ball through the window, which is a lot easier to do than hitting a small mitt. I think there are some parellels but I'm not sure how to find them quite yet.

What it does, is give the muscle and joints the correct memory. Body fibre has memory and will adapt to what ever motorized information it receives, thats why strecthing is a vital part of fitness. It prepares the body for explosive work and correct mobility and alinement of joints.If your technique is poor shadow boxing it will effect your performance doing the real thing because of memory theres a restriction on performance. Hope this helps Von

Eyesight's always in the past, by the time it tries to catch up it's already missed it.
