    4 week update

    Okay, so before you critique the living guts out of me, you should be forewarned this isn't the best video update. I just wanted to post something but ended up getting frustrated trying to get it perfect and sifted through to find a decent one to show you guys... even though it's kinda slow and sloppy (bc filming myself is not one of my strong points)... knowing I'm being taped doesn't help my performance!

    Disregard the swivel noise in some portions, that doesn't usually happen when I bag...

    Anyways, here is my 4 week progress

      Great Job! I know lots about miss hits....That's what they made titles and credits for.....to cover mine up.....you have a lot of variety in your vid for only 4 1/2 weeks in. Keep on Bagging and Posting Vidz! The more you do it the less you'll think about the camera! Keep up the Good work!

        NICE! I think you've been watching the same videos I have...
        To me (also a noob) you show great improvement since the last video, must be practicing a lot. It's SO addictive isn't it? I find myself hitting well into the night and lose complete track of time.

        Keep up the good work.

          Much better than me!

          At least you have a video too! (nice Apple sticker)
          What size Cleto is that? Looks like a good size.

          Thanks for sharing, makes me want to train.

            Well you certainly have been practising a LOT since your first video!

            You've added a bunch of new techniques in two weeks, I'm amazed!

            Fist rolls front and reverse, linking, double bumps, 3 way elbows, front and reverse double punches....

            Excellent work I'd say, and the consistency and fluid control that you're after is gonna come as you keep practising. Looking ace!

                Thanks! The only decent option was to put it in my bedroom, haha.

                It's so hard not to! I should just have a friend record me when I'm not paying attention

                I'm glad someone can appreciate my obsession with Apple
                The Cleto in the video is an extra small

                  Don't Worry About Perfection...Just Bag.

                  I must say,for 4 weeks in you look REALLY good! Triple elbows, double fist bumps,linking all looks great. So what if you're not at blinding speed yet. You're focussed on two of the main concepts: technique and control. I truly mean it when I say you're off to a great start. BAG ON!!!!

                    Really impressive speed bagging for 4 weeks! And, as Metaldad stated, you have really good control and technique. I like your style on the inward elbow strikes – nice from BOTH directions, too! The linking looks good. Heck! It all looks good! Keep up the addiction.

                    I can't wait to see your 8-week update!!

                          Great work. I am using your vid as a work out tool. I don't know if I will ever get that good.

                              Ah the bain of living in a mulitple occupant dwelling. I know your pain. I live next to the complex manager, but the noise from the units upstairs usually drowns out my workouts. I still use a freestanding platform tho, as the walls are thin with little insulation. A wall mounted platform would telegraph through at least half the eighteen units of the building I'm in.

                              BTW, you are doing great!
