hit n' miss

a quick question, sometime when i miss some punches, my arm tends to jar up at the elbow, sort of like a hyper extension, any1 no any stretches or anything else to prevent this happening?

My guess is you over stretched or hyper-extended and that's why it feels that way. Stretching is important but what is more important is never fully locking out your joints - it can cause pulls and tears and leaves you open to traps and breaks.

Maybe try some tendon/legiment aiding excersizes such as the almighty bicep curl.

You only need to a couple times a month though. Go heavy weight and only a few partial reps per set.
