Heavybag training (video) . . . critisism please!

im no expert but i think you might be backing up from the bag too much

 

LOL. No but seriously, one thing i would like to see you improve is the positioning of your hands. they are so far inside that the gloves are basically touching. That's hurting the speed on your punches ESPECIALLY your hooks. It's adding an extra step in your punch technique because you have to bring your gloves outside first before throwing instead of them being out already in position.

 

no when the bag swings it's like you back up from the bag and wait for it to swing your way haha

 

You dont throw a straight cross properly, you usually over extend.

 

You may be a natural fighter, but not a natural mover. It looks like your thing might be pressure, rather than groove.

 

Nah, I mean you don't move naturally. That goes for punching, footwork, and other ****. You don't have the things I like - dynamism, versatility and fluidity that is innate and effortless.

But that shouldn't matter, because like I said, it might be that you're a natural fighter with regards to mind set and durability. You might find that with even more training, you could define yourself as an intense pressure fighter who takes chunks out of his opponents.

 

I have my share of short comings, but just as with everyone, there are things I do well, too. I've always seemed to impress people with technique, and that goes for boxing, football, martial arts, musical instruments and so on. Not to say that I'm especially good at any of it, but I've near enough always managed to pick up correct technique (and then expand on it) very quickly. It's something I value highly, and probably the reason I love watching the great boxing technicians of the past so much. Despite my shitty stamina, questionable resilience and lack of dedication, I do punch and move very well, and look upon it from a very scientific perspective but am always careful to keep it all flowing.

You don't give out the impression that your brain is totally in tune with your muscles. But then again, you probably have the hard working attitude (which is a talent in itself) that I lack.
