UK Speed Bag

[novice]

Hi Novice....

From what I can see and hear you're doing fine. The sounds of the bag tell us a lot. Yours sound like a smooth even pace to your punching. You got going faster at the end but it seemed like a control acceleration, not a desperate attempt to keep up - so your pace is smooth and continuous. Fist contact seems solid without constant mis-hits on the bag ( I do notice a couple of mis hits with the left fist at first) but I don't hear any "late" contacts and it looks like you are making contact at the correct point in the rebound (note your contact afterimage).

Fist movements are a bit more difficult to determine since your video "crop" or zoom-in choice is a bit high and your hands drop out the bottom of the screen. You might zooom out or show more of your body/shoulder so we can see more of your arm movements and position.

but all told you look and sound pretty solid. Remember, speed bag is much more about "control" than "speed". If you are trying to hit "hard and fast" then chances are it will hold your progress back as you try to learn new techniques or combinations.

Thanks alot for your comments, i had to balance my camera phone on my dodge ball and it was just a spur of the moment thing, but i`ll get a mate to film me and make a better video for you...i can go at a slower pace for a long time...to be honest i`d like to make up some sort of cardio workout/training routine involving my speed bag, heavy bag & dodge ball... and of course get more skill full at the same time...

thanks again for everyones advice, this is something i really want to get good at...
