How long do you hit the speedbag?

[08speed3]

Kinda curious? I hit the speedbag for about 30 mins. About 2 times a week. Trying to get it up to an hour. But i also hit the Heavybag & the DE bag as well as train on the slip bag, slip line, medicine ball, jump rope, treadmill, bike & workout with weights. Oh, i cant forget stretching out, this is key too!!
Its hard to fit all of this in a week when i have a demanding job that takes 10 hrs of my day 6-7 days a week. YIKES, i cant forget family time. lol!

* Also when i get Alans book & dvd's im gonna want more time on the Speedbag. Damn, not enough hours during the day!!

First month while the addiction was at its peak i hit 7 days a week.....untill my hands could take no more....then i would pace the basement back and forth untill i could hold my arms up to hit some more. Now that i have been hitting for 6 months the addiction is not so intense. I average about 4 days a week 15-20 minutes a session. I need to really get serious with it though. I am not making big improvements at this snail pace.

LOL, yep that for the first 6 weeks. I’ve been really busy lately and have only been getting in 30 minute sessions two or three times a week. An hour session is great when I can find the time.

Being that the economy is slow and I have some spare time, I usually try for 5 days a week, 30-60 minutes a day, just on the speed bag. I start with a large bag and work my way down to the Atomic Small. Then I do a regular workout, and then run (ok, I'm now over 50, so jog is a better word) a few miles.

When work picks back up I am sure I will be forced to cut back.

About an hour each weekday except Monday & Wednesday when I have class, 2 ~ 3 hours Saturdays, Sundays either none or about an hour. I've been sick the last week & a half, so about 40 minutes to an hour every other day and 1 to 2 on Saturday. I stopped for a couple days because I got my first bloody knuckle, but I overcame with a couple layers of clear nail polish coat. I'm going to get back into it solid tomorrow.

I only get to the gym once or twice a week so I put in two to three hours. In apartment I tipped over a salvaged dresser and mounted platform to the top so I have to sit on the floor to bag. It limits movement so elbow strikes don't work but good enough for a short workout. Although at a speed bag convention people are known for punching for three days, LOL.

The inspiring part is that the abilities and skill level can be yours. When I see an impressive ability I try to immediately picture myself doing the same. This skill can be mine. This skill will be mine. And then go practice. The only way up the mountain is repetition.
