Thread: Beginner, need help and advice.

I love the sport and am really interested at getting into it but unfortunately can not afford the membership fees at my gym and have no time due to work commitments, instead I have purchased a speed ball and have just purchased a punch bag which is the link below(Could you tell me if this is a good bag). I plan to become the best I can while learning at home so I would really appreciate some advice from some of you guys. I will have some videos uploaded soon.
Thanks.
Here is the link to the punch bag:

Looks like a good bag to me.

You can become fairly decent while training at home, but you won't stand a chance at turning pro unless/until you get with a trainer.

It's 27 Kg. that is roughly 60 lbs. Way too light. Not sure of your size but it almost doesn't matter. This thing will be flying all over the place in no time.

That is JT Rocks picture.

If you get on to Missy, she's a mod here, I believe she can direct you to a place wher you can download the Title DVD set. This is a good tutorial when beginning boxing.

Tell her Julius Rain sent you to ask.

(If it wasn't Missy it was my man Dizaster. But I'm near certain it was Missy who metioned it)

P.S. Do NOT tell her Julius Rain sent you!!!
