Hey von was there another link you were gonna put up?

[Von Milash]

yeah, sorry for the delay. This is the first time I've ever even made a video. My first try. So I uploaded the wrong media type, had to do some reading as to what would work, then I edited it a bit more, etc.

The final version has been uploaded and is being reviewed by youtube so hopefully it'll be ready for all to see very shortly.

lol . cc nice clip! Question about the body hooks for ya.... Ive been dropping down to hook to the body, then normally pop up and hook to the head. Is it better to hook to the body while standing more upright?

[Von Milash]

thanks. whatever works for you. I like to get down a little bit. What you can't see in that vid is that I have a rather wide stance, so that's how I generate my power.. or lack there of. lol.

nice puching power exercise! just a little thingy there, when you throw hooks to the body, you lower your defending arm too much imho. if your opponent throws a hook to the head at the same time you might end up getting hit. that is just my point of view though

[Von Milash]

you're absolutely right. I keep my hands high on mitts, but I do tend to get a bit lazy on the bag. Seeing that made me realize it all the more.

Von terrific cc one point when throwing the jab youre not moving the right shoulder with the weight its spending all its energy stabalising the left move it. Or it will damage the biomechanics.

[Von Milash]

ok....I think I know what you're saying. Thanks. cc

Yep Nice Vid - I like the strength training equipment you have there.

What exactly is it? I was told my gym had something similar years ago but it fell apart.

I assumed it was home made since it looks a little different to the usual cable weights set up you see in commercial gyms - but now I see you have it too I'm thinking it might be possible to buy something like this.

Did you buy yours somewhere or make it yourself?

[Von Milash]

thanks. it's all homemade. the unit at impulsepower.com will run you $3600 usd. mine is about $25 worth of stuff you buy from a hardware store. wire cable, clips, pulleys and some black iron pipe and fittings.
