Critique My Heavy Bag Work

thought you were an Asian FC1 ahahah. My tip would be to turn your punches over, and you better hope I don't become a boot camp RDC, because my goal is to whoop on the E-6. Just messin bro.

thats bad, rather put a double-end bag then, you will have more space.. you will have bad habits with just standing in front of heavy bag.

or you can spice your heavy bag workout by doing intervals with high (flurry) and low (bombs) intensity without moving too much, all your shots have same speed and power, thats not good..

good is that you are relaxed and you do combos and moving head, knees are bended and that all is fine, except your right hand, you have to put more power in it and try to practice more straight right hands instead of crosses.

 

You have enough space to move back two steps, then move in, or take a bit of an angle.

You can also do straight footwork drills between a made up ring or line. And shadow box!

Good video, good defense when throwing.

 

You seem to have decent fundamentals in your stance and form which is good.

One thing I notice is that you're pretty repetitive in using the same combinations; I understand you have limited movement, but try mixing it up more. Envision yourself slipping and countering a variety of shots, feint before throwing, throw leads, pump out 3 jabs, feint before throwing a jab or straight right to the body before coming up top, etc. They're also all coming in the same rhythm, which you'll want to mix up as you're thinking of different ways to throw, as to not become predictable, along with some varied head movement. Some rounds you'll want to just throw combinations, but try treating other rounds creatively like you would shadowboxing.

Another poster mentioned turning your punches over more, which is a good idea. You're not slapping, but try focusing more on pivoting and turning your body in the punches explosively while landing on your last three knuckles accurately. More intensity would be good to see as well.

Keep up the good work, hope I could help!

 

The technique is pretty good, but I'd suggest moving your head a little faster after punching. On the longer combos you stood there for a half a second too long...Just nitpicking.

 

You look good man. You fight heavily off of your front foot which isn't bad per se, but it implies you need to do a few things you aren't doing.

Add in some jab hook D by occasionally touching your left glove to your temple/above your ear. Your left was locked out there.

I would say watch jabbing down to jab the body. You are either going to have to change levels (bend) at your knees. With that said make sure to mix it up by changing levels (down) and jabbing up to make sure your level changes aren't predictable.

Also your lead body hooks you seem to **** over, think, wind up, then drive the hook. I think you should try to work on making it one fluid movement. Slide in and out(left) at up to a 45 degree angle while rotating your right shoulder toward your opponent. That will put you at the side of the bag with your weight over your left foot. At the moment your step is complete shift back and deliver the hook. If you don't get over far enough with that left hook to the body you can be smashed with a right hook to the head. (This could be due to the feet on the HB stand tough limiting your movement though.)

Keep up the good work you *******. :yep:good

 

nice work how many fights ave u had bro?

 

You're not bending at the knees for your body shots. You're "reaching". It's not a good thing because you're leaving your face open for counters.

I used to do it too, its a pretty common thing, so no worries. You look good otherwise.:good

Your left hook to the head looks good. When throwing a left hook to the body, bend at your knees until your in line with the body. Essentially, the only difference between the two punches should be the degree of bending at the knees. Your hooking arm is always always always parallel to the ground. Don't reach down!

When bending at the knees, make sure you aren't leaning forward (keep your torso upright). If you're leaning forward when bobbing and weaving you'll feel it in your lower back after a while (your back will hurt). That's how you know you're doing it wrong. If your thighs are burning at the end of the day, you're doing it right!

It's harder to bend at the knees at first, but really work at it. Bending at the waist is a really bad habit, and painful after a whole day of doing it!

 

Your problems are in your stance and your weight transference, or lack thereof.
When you jab you need to come off the back foot and extend that arm all the way out; jabbing short like that is asking to have right hands dropped on you. Start further away from the bag, and bring the right foot with you when you slide in.
You are pushing your right hand and this is because your feet are too far apart. The right hand begins with a sharp pivot on the right toe, to turn your hips and shoulders, which drive the right hand. Your turn barely reaches the hips and your shoulders don't turn at all. As a result your right hand is essentially a jab.
When you throw your left hook, that weight has to get back onto the right foot, so you can throw a right hand behind it. Again, your feet are too far apart and the weight is just pushing off your left foot and getting hung up in between. You are pivoting the front foot, which you should be doing, but the weight has no where to go because your feet are too far apart.
