The most powerful attack?

I have had this idea of the most powerful toolless attack a human can possibly do and came up with something, that might sound ridiculous, but definitely has some truth or I should say power to it.

To really understand how I came up with this idea, I want to share with you the characteristics, that I think the most powerful attack should have.

For me its basically

  1. the attack should be backed by the whole mass of the attacker

  2. it should be done at insane speed

and

  1. the striking surface should be small so a highly concentrated energy transfer can take place

The attack I came up with could technically be done by everbody but just like with every other attack its deadliness is determined by who is doing it.

Now imagine this. You have a very brave human being, that is capable of running at olympic level sprinting speed. This might be somewhere between 40 and 44km/h. If we think about this attack being done somewhere randomly outside, probably closer to 40kmh, because the attacker lacks a bouncy track and sprinting spikes.

Sprinting itself doesn't sound really dangerous, but it becomes a very deadly thing, especially at olympic level speed, if it is not the finish line, that is aimed for, but a human being.

Now you probably can imagine, where this is going.

This very brave attacker will start accelerating. He needs a lot of room. Somewhere between 45-60m to reach his top speed. He will target his victim and aim for his head. He will make use of his most dense bone - his own skull - and hit his victim at 40km/h.

I haven't done the physics here, but I am pretty sure, that the victim won't move for a very long time if not forever.

The attacker has to make a sacrifice obviously. His own brain will definitely not thank him for this high velocity impact, but he will probably survive.

What do you guys think? Is this the most powerful attack, a human being can do without the use of tools? To make this clear, I am not talking about the quickest, the most precise attack or whatever. It's the concept of the most powerful attack. If it hits, it hits.

Daniel Cormier's reaction to Brock Lesnar seemingly retiring at WrestleMania last night

Crazy how Brock Lesnar dominated every sport he entered. NCAA champ UFC champ WWE legend even made it the NFL.

A masterclass in offense versus defense that still holds up as a spectacular chapter in boxing history.

I hope this helps to improve your solo boxing trainings!

Most people think they train consistently — but if you’re honest, a lot of sessions are pretty unstructured.

I got tired of that, so I built a free app to fix it.

Set up your training in under 10 seconds, customize rounds and rest, and just go — no stopping, no taking off gloves to reset timers.

Plus, you can track your full training history and see what you actually got done.

Simple, practical, no fluff.

Curious what you think and would love to get some honest feedback! Enjoy your workouts :)

Hey guys, I built something free for our community to improve our solo workouts!

I started boxing about 6 months ago and honestly I'm loving it. Apart from regular gym training I find myself hitting the heavy bag at home on off days, doing some jump rope, or
meeting up with friends for light sparring. For all of that you really just need one thing — a decent timer.

Sounds simple, right. I tried basically every boxing timer app on the App Store and I was kind of shocked by how rough the experience was. A lot of them forced me to watch an ad
between rounds — and I don't know if you've tried closing a popup with boxing gloves on, but it's not fun. Others would just stop running the second my phone locked, so I'd look
up thinking the round was almost over and it hadn't moved. Some only let you set two or three presets before asking for money.

I've been teaching myself to code for about two years now on the side, so at some point I thought screw it, I'll just build the one I actually wish existed.

It's called BoxTime. A few things I specifically wanted in it:

  • Timer keeps running in the background when your phone locks or you switch apps, so you don't have to touch it mid-round
  • No forced ads between rounds
  • Fully custom round length, rest and number of rounds for whatever you're doing that day
  • Log your solo sessions and sparring with notes on what you worked on
  • Training history so you can look back at the past weeks
  • Works the same for kickboxing, Muay Thai or anything round based

Most of the things you'd actually use during training are free, I only kept a small part of it behind an optional upgrade to help cover costs — so you can genuinely train with it, it's not a 7-day trial or anything like that.

You can try it completely free without signing up

Obviously not a replacement for a coach or proper gym work, just something to make solo training and open-gym days a bit less annoying.

If anyone feels like trying it and telling me honestly what they think — what's missing, what's clunky, what annoyed you — I'd really appreciate it. Rather hear it now than keep
building in the wrong direction. Link: [LINK]

Cheers.
