Firstly, practise being at the end of your range, not so you are over reaching, but so you are fully extending your arms. One of the hardest things that beginners pick up is when they can actually hit someone, they get way to close and as a result can not get enough power or get tagged which is why they think their defence is so bad.
Secondly do not get into the habit of "hopping" after every combo, it gives a sign to your opponent that you are done with that combo. If you can stay light on your feet you can pause slightly which puts off the rhythm of your opponents defence. It also allows you to counter a lot quicker and saves you energy.
Nice work on keeping your hands high though and remember to punch at your own head height, a good idea is to stand next to the bag in your boxing stance then wrap a line of tape around the bag where your chin/mouth is so you have something to aim at.
Practise your footwork, scrap has a good post somewhere which has a string attached to you and the bag so you stay just out of range of the bag as it swings. But not looking too bad, I have seen a lot worst come in the gym so keep it up.
lol @ the bag falling
Not bad for a beginner brother, I see you have a good basic 1-2. Make sure you switch it up though. Your rhythm is too predictable...you hop 3 times and then 1-2...hop 3 times and then 1-2 again. Try 1-1-2, try feints, make the bag SWING and pivot around it. I know it's not the most secure bag from what I've seen in the video, but yo keep doing your thing. And keep your hands up. Shadowbox in front of a mirror and see what your opponent sees. Visualize! And constantly elevate your fighting skill. Boxing to me is literally a physical game of chess, and the day you realize that, your outlook will cause you to become so much better. Keep it up.
how not to hit a bag..(plus dad just got new camera and was trying it out)

This was a goofy vid post cuz I just made it and saw this post. Going hard like that on the bag doesn't serve much of a purpose. A good speed to work on form I think would be somewhere between OPs tempo and what I did.
You are incredibly uncomfortable with your hooks and crosses
nope.Quote:

Towards the initial post by the way not you Youngblood
oh ha thought you meant me, cuz I think I throw them too often.
I think the advice in this thread in good for OP. He looks tentative on the bag, for sure. I just look retarded. :bucktooth:
He's only been training what, a month? He really imo shouldn't even be focusing on too much more then just getting comfortable with it and finding a rythm.
:o;D anyway first 2 post the only one that matter, the hopping was fixed yesterday after some one on one lesson with sparring i noticed the hopping is the very things that gets me very tired and easily out of air.
Not bad 'pre.
wow youngblood you hit pretty hard. i still think i can take you :DQuote:
