I’m making an effort to beat the bag to the next spot, rather than chase it.

    Around the time I started trying side hits and elbows I realized if I got comfortable with the techniques before I tried to link them in, it was much easier. The learning curve is much shorter, IMO. I’ll spend a week on a new technique sometimes before trying to link it in with my other junk. I usually ask myself ‘If Mr. Kahn saw this what would he think?’ the answer is ‘ slow down....make sure your hands stay up (strike down at the bag) and pay attention to how far they drift away from the bag.’ Of course he is always right

    Pretty good run there, nice tempo changes speeding up and slowing down very under control! Especially if you have just started working on this riff this week.
    A good nights sleep does work wonders.. When it's real good after a hard week I notice when I'm fresh on a weekend morning I am taller to the bag even..
    Hell yeah Rusty, can't wait to see this at the Pro level!

    It looks to me like you are about ready to turn "Pro"

    Day three of practicing the exercises on the cheat board. At this point I’m at practice speed, slowly linking them in with other basic punches. It’s amazing what a good nights sleep will do. That’s when the magic happens. By the weekend I plan to be tightening up that (FDP)’(S-RDP) at the end and going immediately into a R-Roll.

    You can see what I’m attempting written out on my cheat board pictured below. **Bonus points to anyone who can spot the one mistake I made on the cheat board

    Another attempt at notation. This is what I came up with for the above exercise. I do notice sometimes I'm sneaking in an extra punch before the two rebounds linking the RDP, but I think I'm close?

    If anyone gets a wild hair, feel free for proof read. I'm interested to see how far off I am.

    This afternoon I'm trying almost the same elbow strike exercise I've been doing recently with the 4213. I'm attempting to eliminate the two rebounds I've been allowing for time to switch arms.

    I'm cracking on this newly acquired 4213 with the original plastic bladder this afternoon. Honestly, I think I like it better than the new bladders. I would have never guessed that. It feels lighter and faster. Or it could be the batch, I guess? I notice this one has the Gyro logo, rather than the Olympic logo. Maybe someone wiser than I can speak to that?

    Roger that! Most of the time I'm gloved when hitting the 4200 I have, and during the winter all the time pretty much. Cold bags and dry skin splits me open pretty good but another layer of skin certainly helps!
