Traditional Karate Hand Conditioning

http://www.chrisdenwood.com Here are some clips from the dojo that show a sample of my personal hand conditioning regime.

I aim to cover anywhere between 800 to 1000 reps and a full session takes around 40 minutes to complete. If performed on a consistent basis, this I feel is adequate.

Repetition training on hard surfaces is different to power training - you need to be conscious of both the level of force and the changing state of your hands.

It is about slow, steady and progressive development. Seeking fast results can easily result in injury and this will only hamper your overall growth.

I aim to finish every session such that I can return again in the next day or two. If injuries do occur then I wait for them to heal completely before resuming my practice.

And apologies for the lack of lighting - training was at night!
