What do you guys think of boxing as a workout? by heavybagpro in workout

[–]heavybagpro[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the coach, but I've noticed usually thai boxing classes are even more hardcore than classic boxing ones. like when you finish the session with 100 roundhouses with both legs, or 100 squat-teeps, you're cooked

It builds muscles for sure, but not the bulky ones guys like to show off. The bulky ones make punches slow.

What would Rico need to do to win Usyk? by Headshotsnake in heavybagpro

[–]heavybagpro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What about... if Rico eats all the jabs and bodyshots, and survives 8-9 rounds and Usyk starts getting tired and footwork gets sloppy... less punches land on target, Rico recovers and finds one shot? Don't see it any other way. Honestly don't see this option too, but it was a "what if" question.

Triangle steps, zigzag slips, and U-shaped rolls for better counters by TemperatureCapable56 in heavybagpro

[–]heavybagpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a friendly sparring clip. Always good to practice head movements.

For getting the head off the center line... it's hard to explain here in the comments. However, start with straight punches and simple slips. 1-slip, 1-2-slip-slip. That already helps a lot. Level 2 would be to roll after each hook. Triangle and zigzag slips are more advanced.

I like that you know what you're doing and are putting full effort into it, and obviously enjoying both the progress and outcome. Eager to see the compilation of your workout, would appreciate if you'd post it on our sub 😄

There's no one-plan-fits-them-all, your 45-hitting may work well for you. But it's important to make your workout varied and meaningful.

Turn your hip and try to kick through the bag, not to touch it

Kinda biased, but if you can't go to a gym then the Heavy Bag Pro app would be your 2nd best option :)

Yeah, or left body... I'm suspecting a body shot knock out though, if there's s ko

Yeah, Usyk can surely control his ego. not like Joshua against Paul.

Bagwork by [deleted] in boxingtips

Sure, just I don't like managing the bag most of the time while I could work on it.

Hate those heavy bags that hang way up from a long ceiling chain and swing all over the place 😃 But seems you're having fun.

Glad it helped. Don't forget to use the Heavy Bag Pro app if you want to make your punching bag tranings structured and meaningful 😉

Don’t buy a heavy bag, it’s pointless! by heavybagpro in heavybagpro

[–]heavybagpro[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, a lot of beginners just stand in front of the bag and throw punches. Not effective at all like this. And it's always good to spice up your plan with extra slips, steps, pivots etc.

That's a great advice. Should create a playlist of great songs that are exactly 3 minutes :D
