The Darth Vizzle You don't lock out when you punch. You punch THROUGH the target metaphorically speaking, meaning you would theoretically lock out somewhere past the point of impact. Flightless: I would lock then because you don't do leg curls with heavy weight, and you want the full range of motion. The hamstring has been called the bicep of the leg, it serves the same function. So you want max ROM then, especially since you should never be doing a ton of weight anyways. The weight I'm doing is too heavy then, or my technique is wrong? My muscle doesn't burn or shake.. so that means it's light enough for a lot of reps. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. And I hold my breath. Someone told me I'm supposed to breath a certain way when I lift.. like in when I lift and out when I set it back down or something?

Punching a punching bag and punching someone is very different. Punching a bag is to get your senses use to hitting something so you don't get shocked by say how hard you can hit. Punching another human being deals with hitting bones or muscle or slippery flesh.

Well, that's true.
Body shots to a man that outweighs me by at least a hundred pounds isn't going to get me anywhere. Though I have been humored in being allowed to try.
Kick to the nuts always works though, no matter how big the guy is.

Never hold your breath. Breath in while lowering weight, breathe out while raising. Best example is bench press: Breath in on the way down, breathe out on the way up.
If you can't do a full ROM, then yeah, too much weight. You should be able to move from point A (legs straight) to point B (legs curled as far as possible) fairly smoothly.
If you have to heave your body forward to move the weight, it does no good for the hamstrings. If the weight moves too easily, it's just going to make you sweat and that serves no purpose.

Colonel Iyam A Heita I@Tenkai- i dunno what you called yourselves because I forgot but it was you, Vansin and Kichiro...you I had no problems with but you three ruined a fight because of some grudge. You mean the Kensei? Wow, that was....a long time ago. But I don't remember ruining any sort of fight, or any sort of grudge. I'm not even the kind to hold grudges. ._. I don't think "you three" would be the right thing here, since I was never aware of ruining any sort of fight. What was this fight anyway?

It's not important really...
I prefer a throat jab personally...some people can take a nut shot and press on with their intent. I've never seen anyone just "eat" a throat jab.

I have the same problem when I try to sprint, either on dry land or in the water. I'll breathe out for about 15m if I'm underwater, until I'm empty, then hold it until it burns or hurts.
And with sprinting short distances, I just forget to breathe. And hold it.
What if I strapped my hips down, and kept the same weight? Would I hurt myself, or would that help me?
Why do you have to breathe like that when you are lifting?

It's hard to get a closed fist in for a throat jab and unless your use to stabbing things with your fingers...I wouldn't suggest that. So I would leopard paw someone.

Colonel Iyam A Heita It's not important really... I guess I won't press it then. ._. But the Kensei...wow...that's like...ancient. I haven't spoken to Kichiro in quite a while, too. I'd like to think I'm a lot different than how things were back in the Kensei days.

You don't HAVE to, but having a breathing rhythm is better than not.
Also, breathing out hard while pushing up has shown to help in moving the weight.
And it's worlds better than holding in your breath.. which deprives your body of oxygen.
