Agreed.
I like to change my routine a lot and avail of all avenues.
But the bag is essential, if you're a boxer.

Pads are brilliant. Scrap doesn't rate them , but I thoink when used properly they're brilliant.
That's interesting, Scrap not thinking the pads are as good as a bag. I wonder why? I mean, for eg. right now I am working really hard on my uppercuts, and the heavy bag just doesn't seem to cut it for that.
Scraps rasoning is that if a combonation is thrown incorrectly and the sequence broke, the workout is wasted.
