Martial art exercises

[Eye of the Tiger]

Whats the best method of training for striking arts, kickboxing and karate?. How often should I train in?I have heard Plometrics should be added to any fitness routine for martial arts as you practice going from a relaxed state to a explosive state in a blink of an eye.

 

THX in return

Plenty of endurance work with Cardiovascular exercises and high repititions to basic bodyweight exercises such as pushups, situps, and pullups.

 

And yes incorporating Pylometric exercises are useful for any Martial artist, do a search on the web or for examples on this forum and I'm sure you'll find plenty of results.
