Is Isolation muscle have any benefits in Martial arts?

As a martial artist it isn't a great idea to do body building techniques to build good fighting techniques. Repetitive motion, even such as curls, CAN build endurance but not typically for punching.





Isolating muscles, in my opinion as a practitioner of Goju Ryu Karate and Hung Gar Kuen, should primarily be used with less weight and more repetitions in an aim at building strength endurance as supplementary training, rather than just bulk.





Miyagi Chojun Sensei (Founder of Goju Ryu) had this to say:


';Hojo Undo (Supplementary exercises) are practiced with the aim of perfecting the kata. The purpose of the exercises is not only to develop strength and power in the body as a whole, but to develop each part of the body individually in order to develop complete body power.';Is Isolation muscle have any benefits in Martial arts?
Strength training is part of overall training for martial arts. Remember, the formula for kinetic energy is 1/3mv^2





That's basically half your weight times speed squared





Keep the entire formula in mind when you train

for striking you don't want huge arms because the bulkier your arms are, the heavier they are, and the heavier they are the more the shoulders have to work to hold them up, and also if your arms are heavy your going to drop you hands alot, and you'll get tagged with your hands down, and possibly knocked out. And also if you have heavy arms your punches will be slower, USUALLY. not all the time, depends on the person i guess.


Muscles to work on would be alot of core building exercises, back, shoulders, triceps, and legs.
You are better to use combination/compound exercises. Huge biceps aren't going to help you if you don't have the lats as well. In martial arts you use a combination of muscles to perform any move so it is best to grow all the muscles that connect to perform movements. Not doing so could lead to injuries.
large thighs and lower center of gravity = kicking power %26amp; more difficulty to be taken down
