I do shadow box and I feel very self aware as far as being able to feel whether or not I executed something correctly.
    I have no real boxing gym available unfortunatley. I'm also not doing this as a part of a health club or for some sort of boxing based fitness program. There is a recreation center on the island where people spar twice a week. Some people show up just try to beat people up but they dont ever last long. There is about four or five guys who show up consistently who have had prior training of some sort. Some have boxing experience some have mma. basically we all do the best we can with what knowledge we can put together.
    I do get alot of complements on my progress and on my form, so I'm not so sure If that would be it. And 'd say the only person who wants to make progress nearly as much as I do would be my hawaiin friend chad

    Oh, and as far as hitting the bag when coming towards you, I realise thats a bad practice. I typically try to use those oppurtunities to sidestep the bag and hook into its direction rather than against its direction.
    shoot some video and post it up, too hard to try and help you by reading text. If you're wrists are hurting, it could be 1 of 2 things, or a combination of both. Bad form when hitting the bags, OR, lack of calcium/bad bones.

    That sounds reasonable enough. I just have to get my hands on a camera. I'll see if I can borrow one. No promises on time, but hopefully I'll be able to get a video up.
