Training device

John,
I've shown your videos to a few friends. they aren't really into boxing but love to exercise. They all said it looked great and that they would definately buy one if it came on the market. A few of them like to hit the bag and pads, purely for fitness. Sometimes i throw a few jabs at them while they do it, just to tire them even more. So they are well aware how much more tiring it is when punches are coming back at you. Which is why it would make a fun and effective fitness tool.
I mean, if its a choice between a 5 mile run or slipping jabs and countering with booming hooks, theres no contest really.

ryanman, thank you so much for showing it and then letting me know what your friends thought from an exercise point of view. That means a lot to me.

Last Friday I smashed my thumb pretty bad building something so several days had to go by before the swelling went down a bit. I sure missed boxing against the RBT and yesterday I was able to do it again and bare the thumb pain. I look forward to it that much. Like you said, it is amazing how much more of a workout it is punching AND trying not to get hit. I can only do about 4 rounds because my shoulders are screaming by then. I can see why boxers going many rounds get sloppy. Still, they show what great shape they are in to go that long.
