How To Side Strikes

[champlin]

Been hitting the bag boxer for a few years, and since having knee replacement found The Bible. Picking up on most of it pretty quick, however could really use any advice, tips, or slow videos on the different side techniques. Every video I’ve located never has a unobstructed view combing RCP, RSP to the side

What is "RCP"?. Just wondering.

There are three Reverse Punches.
1. Reverse Single Punch (RSP)
2. Reverse Double Punch (RDP)
3. Reverse Fist Roll (R-Roll)

In The Speed Bag Bible I identified 7 side techniques (6 punches and one elbow strike)

1. Side Single Punch (SSP) - single fist
2. Hook Punch (Hook) - single fist
3. Side Double Punch (SDP) - 2 fists = front-side (1 rebound between)
4. Reverse-Side Double Punch (R-SDP) - 2 fists = Reverse-Side (1 rebound)
5. Side-Reverse Double Punch (S-RDP)- 2 fists = Side-Reverse (one rebound between)

6. Side-Triple Elbow Stike (S-TES) L-L/R
* like a Outward Triple Elbow Strike but last (2nd) fist his SSP on side of bag
* or a Side Double Punch (SDP) with and outward elbow in front by the same lead arm.

I cover all of these in the Speed Bag Bible Videos. In fact in the 4-DVD series, DVD-3 is "The Side Techniques"

The Side Techniques are usually the most complicated and add the most variety for combinations. The create rule of rhythm #3. "When the direction of the next contact (fist of elbow) is from a "different side" (not opposite side...) it may be on an ODD or EVEN number of rebounds." [and sometimes both. ie...you can do the combo on 1,2,or 3 rebounds.

Like every other area of the bag (Front, Back or Sides), the bag area can span 2 bag panels, and the rebound angles can vary accordingly. for instance, if you put the laces of the bag dead in front of your nose, notice they are over a seam, and there is a left panel and right panel of the bag (see photo). You could hit the center seam or the seam to extreme right, or the seam to extreme left and be hitting "the front area" of the bag, and each will yield a very different rebound angle. me for side of the bag (or Reverse area), but since you can't see them, it's not so obvious. (see "side area" pick). Once you start learning the side techniques you will usually start learning to vary your fist placement around the side to purposely manipulate the angle of rebound. Side Single Punch (SSP) is the same as Reverse Single Punch (RSP), and basically you can move that fist technique anywhere around the rear-side, back areas of the bag.

This is the most relevant video I posted years ago, actually about the SDP, but it may help.... Again, DVD-3 of the Four disc series teaches all side techniques. (starts with review of DVD-1,2)

Yes sir the video and explanation is very appreciated. (RCP) was a typo, I got excited when I found the forum while sitting in front of my bag and was typing faster than I realized. I never had any real instruction on how to use the bag when I started but knew from the start I was addicted. It is truly an honor to have heard back from you. Thank you

Thanks. But in here there are no ego's or attitudes, just a dedicated bag of brothers and sisters. That's one of the magical parts of this forum. I hope it always stays that way
