Can you train knockout power?
Kinda. You can train proper technique. Planting your feet in a strong stance, bending your knees slightly and torquing your hips/waist.

Some people are just “heavy handed” though. But knockout power is all about placement and sitting on your punches/kicks.

Funny story. I went to my doc a month ago to see my bloodwork results and everything aside from two things that were minor came out normal. So they know that it's not from any health issues.

So have to holler at the therapists the doc recommended me and etc. It sucks having to do this shyt but I have no choice apparently because nothing else is working. I'm not taking any happy or pharma pills. I was on anti depressants six years ago for six months. I am not going back to that. I would much rather go through panic attacks for the rest of my life than to go back to that again. My anxiety and depression is still in full effect and well but I'm using both to force me to get my act together. Right now, I'm having a hard time believing that this is reality as we speak so I'm doing everything in my power to calm down. This shyt is tough. Even starting to feel dizzy at work right now.
Yeah antidepressants don’t work that well from what I’ve heard anecdotally.

I’ve seen studies that mood stabilizers may be more effective though.

I figured as much. My fav boxer (Hagler) said you couldn't. Wasn't sure if that was true.

Can the ladies answer a question for me?

How soon after you meet a guy do you feel comfortable to ask him for money to help you with something ?:jbhmm:

I met this chick yesterday, and today she’s asking me for money to help get a pipe in her home fixed :what::why::upsetfavre:. I’m about to block her ass.
Not when you're just dating, met yesterday and she's already asking for money. She sees you as a mark with a temporary fix. Sounds like she's Bum Bytch Bush status -if she's up front asking you, then she's asking about 10 other dudes, you do the math. I wouldn't even feel right asking a man for money just up front like that. I don't even feel comfortable dating, if my own money is not right. Have to value yourself and have value, before you expect something from others. I would feel that I need to get my shyt together before I'm out here trying to "date" or have fun with men. If he's a male friend that I've known or a day one type - that's different; which implies that I have helped him in the past and he's looked out for me - and it doesn't always need to be reciprocated with money.

He’s kinda right :manny:

That “fukk you” power some fighters have can’t be taught. But good technique and placement can compensate for that.
