That was mean. How is the bag sound inside your garage? Sounds like good room acoustics. Must be like a thunderstorm when you get going on it?

Hey thanks guys! Yea, the acoustics aren't too bad in the garage, but lots of the sound gets dampened by the big industrial fan I have blowing on me, that's standing beside the camera, right out of view. I live in Fl so it tends to get real hot and muggy working out in there sometimes.

How long have you been training on the speed bag?
You are pretty damn good!

[Alex Skylakos]

Hey thanks man! I learned how to hit a speed bag the conventional boxer style back when I was 19. I started learning how to hit it bible style with elbows and all about a year ago now, when I put up my first board. Way more fun, and way better a work out then hitting it boxing style that's for sure. I can stand there and hit it the conventional way all day, but it gets old quick, and your body just gets used to it....lol

What size bag did you start out on and what do you use now?

I just picked up a 7" Title.
My platform will be up and running in a few days.

So you're saying I pick up the speed bag bible?

[Alex Skylakos]

Started on a medium, now I use an ex-small. The bible definitely helps. Teaches you how to hit from all sides of the bag and with elbows.
