Twist your way to fitness: powering your punch and kick

The Jump twist is a great way to prepare your waist and torso for the twist involved in your punches and your kicks. This makes the torso very light. Also, when you jump high in the air you become aware of the attitude you bring to your jump: do you jump light, feeling lithe? Or you jump heavy, with effort? The latter is a strict no-no with a fighter. You must always feel light. For that, of course, you need to practice.
Make this Jump Twist part of your warm-ups before actual Muay Thai. Even a ten-high jump, with twists, should be a good start-up.
