There are some fighters who don't do the heavybag, and I can't imagine why. :dontknow:
clubber, you've never even WORN boxing gloves.
Oh yes I have. I shadowbox and punch the heavybag a good bit, although I'll get into it for a couple of weeks then slack off for a couple of months, so I never get any better. :banghead: (I have a pair of bag gloves for the bag and boxing gloves for the shadowboxing. ;D :fyou:Quote:

sorry man... the 2oz gloves and 20lb bag that came with your kids boxing kit don't count. :cool:Quote:

While I enjoy all aspects of training, I feel that sparring is the most effective. Controlled sparring allows you to get a feel for footwork, and measure the distance of your punches against a human opponent. I feel there is no better way to train, but I also feel it should not be overused.
10 oz. bag gloves, 14 oz boxing gloves, and a 120 lbs. heavybag. ;)Quote:
