Hi all, new to the forums here, and in need of some advice. I recently had some surgeries, and have been using the heavy and speed bag to build my shoulder muscles back up. I have always been an avid weight lifter/boxer, but now I can't lift heavy things. Therefore, I worked my way up from a large everlast bag down to the title 9x6 bag which I love. I have switched around from the s hooks, to chain link, and now to the U bolt. Love the U bolt by the way. Anyways, I want to step my speed and power up to the next level. I am curious as to which bag is faster. The new gyro by title or the basic 8x5 yellow bag. Also curious if you all would recommend me using these smaller bags, or sticking with something a bit heavier if you were trying to increase your shoulder strength again. Thanks all. Happy New Years!! Time to go bag for a bit.

But back to the original thought, I don't really think the BAG SIZE made any difference. You can hit a small fast bag slowly if needed.Speed Bag

The Art of the Bag

Thank you for the input Alan. My main problem has been a lack of guidance on the speed bag in terms of size. My father bought me the speed bag bible about a year ago, and I have progressed since. My physical therapist promoted the use of the speed bag in my rehab as well. It has had the best impact. Now though at the pivotal point in my journey back to health I wasn't just sure at which way to go. I am going to go with the gyro then. Loved the 9x6 pro title very much. Much more so since I got rid of the chain swivel as well. I call that thing "squeeky." The smaller bag and your input on the reduced use of power to push the bag makes all the sense in the world. Might even set myself up now with a 10x7 to hang up and look at. Make it a goal for the end of my next three months. By the way love this website!! I haven't joined the forums till now, but I have been a fan of the website and all your guys videos for a while. Silently you all helped me more than any physician has. Speed bagging is good medicine.
