The Anatomy of a Punch - Bespoke
The muscles of the forearm are primarily used to make a fist and also as stabilizers during a punch to keep the wrist straight. The wrist flexors are on the palm side of the forearm close the fist and stabilize the wrist. The extensors are on the back side of the forearm and also stabilize the wrist. Keeping a straight wrist is important for efficient delivery of force but even more important for staying healthy and able. Impact without a straight wrist can quickly injure the small ligaments of the wrist.
