If that helps, fine. If not, you should start with larger bag if you can find one. Lots of practice will do it - remember, Boxing is mostly a repetitive training except in sparring session.

[Sage]

forget a big bag go for a smaller one.

repetition, repetition, repetition.. be aware of your body movments and your footwork during speed bag.. shift your weight from foot to foot. Learn to circle around the area of the bag. Go to the left and then to the right etc..

don't know how long your doing on the bag at a time.. try three 3 min rounds x 2

[KAOSKTRL]

Ok I set the times for 15 min and was about to do8 min of one's then had to slow down to 3 for 5 min and then finish up with ones.
Need more training for sure. Bad lactic acid just quite smoking 3 weeks ago.

Jump rope takes a little time, but soon you will get it. Make sure you using your wrists to turn the rope not your arms. Small jumps not big ones to start, work to twisting your hips and different footwork exercises. Footwork and stance are key for boxing.

For cardio I warm up on the treadmill... I'm running for 10 minutes at his point, medium pace. You can start with 5 minutes of brisk walking eventually over time you can work up to 20 minutes running

After the treadmill I mix my skipping with jumping jacks. I do about 3 minutes rope then 50 JJ, then another 3 minutes rope then another 50 JJ till I have 200 JJ.. so its about about 12 minutes rope and 200 JJ. I fit in 75 pushups throughout the workout.

Then off the speed bag for 10-20 minutes, then 20 minutes on heavy bag, 10 minutes reflex bag.. then 20 minutes mitt work, 20 minutes footwork, 10 minutes slip rope, 20 minutes shadow box.

I split my weight training into upper and lower body. Will do upper body one day then boxng workout, Next day Abs and boxing workout, next day Lower body and boxing workout. One day a week nothing but lay around and sleep, rest TV etc..

Oh thank god ,
What do you know about increased endurance using creatine?you would figure I would be fit for anaerobic ,being I have smoked for 30 plus years

Ok I went out a got some, Nothing yet,

[Sage]

Oh thank god ,
What do you know about increased endurance using creatine?you would figure I would be fit for anaerobic ,being I have smoked for 30 plus years

there are 3 different kinds of creatine

Creatine monohydrate
Creatine monohydrate is the most scientifically recognized, widely available, and commonly used form of creatine supplementation. It's popular with the scientific community because it's the form used in the majority of research studies. However, there are alternative forms of creatine available that offer similar (although sometimes limited) benefits to the monohydrate form.


Creatine Phospahte
Research has shown both creatine phosphate and creatine monohydrate are equally effective. Many so-called experts have tried to suggest that since our bodies use creatine phosphate naturally, by all means, the form of creatine phosphate as a supplement would be better than the monohydrate form... But maybe not. Here's why...

Upside There is none. You see, the way it works is that once creatine phosphate enters your gut, the phosphate is immediately snatched away, and you're left with free creatine (what your muscles want). But the same applies to the monohydrate form — once dissolved in water, the monohydrate molecule (water) is released, and the substance left in your gut is free creatine (again, what your muscles want).

Downside
Creatine phosphate is extremely expensive to manufacture, and there is no mass production of it nor popular demand for it; thus, it remains over-priced. It has also been reported by many users to be quite grainy in texture, unlike the monohydrate form, which is a slightly gritty, tasteless, and odorless powder.


Creatine Citrate
Creatine citrate has been shown to reach its peak concentration in the blood within one hour, as opposed to creatine monohydrate, which takes up to three hours. Nonetheless, this may not be an overly beneficial effect because muscle cells must be fully "saturated" with creatine before creatine can produce any real effects.

Upside It has been noted that creatine citrate tends to dissolve more easily in water than the monohydrate form, which may indicate that creatine citrate is absorbed more quickly into the bloodstream. This means it may be more readily available for use, more quickly. However, no studies have yet supported this contention.

Downside You would need to consume nearly twice as much (in grams) of creatine citrate to get the same amount of creatine as you would with the monohydrate form. This is because creatine citrate is only 40% creatine and 60% citrate, whereas creatine monohydrate is 90% creatine and 10% monohydrate. As well, many consumers of creatine citrate have sited an acidic taste and sometimes stomach discomfort.


READ THE REST http://nutros.com/nsr-0202m.html


What I use

NO-Xplode
Extreme Nitric Oxide & Creatine Surge!
http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/bsn/xplode.html

Tri-creatine malate is a compound made from creatine monohydrate and malic acid. The substance is so named because the compound is made from three creatine molecules attached to one molecule of malic acid.
READ THIS http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/tricrea.html

NO-Xplode has eliminated this problem by increasing your body's creatine saturation point. It completely opens up the blood vessels which feed the muscle, allowing the Muscle Volumizing Creatine Matrix to stretch the muscle cell and force it to hold more creatine and other volumizing nutrients. And, what's even more amazing, is that this starts happening within minutes of ingestion.

Ok, this stuff is really good product, I have continue to use it. It tasts like hell but just toss it back its over in no time. You will get a great pump and it helps with mental focus. Read the info for all the details. But I like it in spite of the taste, in fact I'm just ran out and have to go get some more.. so far the orange seems to go down the easiest.. lemon lime is a little harsh.

Hey KAOSKTRL,

When you say "time to move down", It is not clear to me if you mean moving to a smaller bag, ( which is faster.. ) or moving down to a slower bag (or larger one.)

If you are letting air out of the bag, I suspect you want it to go slower. (or move "down" to a slower bag.. ) the next larger bag is an 11x8. ( titleboxing speedbags

There are a few things you can do. First, try using 5 rebounds instead of 3. ( 3 is the normal triplet rhythm you hear most boxers do. But 5 rebounds will also work if you can't make 3.)

Slow down. Hit with less power. A 10x7 bag will easily make 3 rebounds with just the weight of your hand hitting it with no force. The secret to speed bag control is hitting it consistently with equal force or power with each successive punch. And, you have to do this over and over with both hands. It takes a little practice.

look here of speed bag help.

Bag tips.
• To determine proper inflation level, pump until all the wrinkles are out of the outer leather and the bag is smooth. Then put in one or two more. You should be able to gently squeeze the inflated bag and push the leather in slightly.

Great links thanks
Found this, Mine was as hard a seat in a ferrarri Testerrosa
My son could do singles but his hands are as fast as they get, from guitar I guess never knew him to hit a speed bag around here.
I figured a smaller bag would be faster but smaller allowing my ham sized hands
Room the letting the air out has worked well enough and Im really enjoying the time on the bag .
I may incorperate a balance board when my knees feel strong enough to trust.
I need to accept the time constraints of rest relax and enjoy myself

Hi, I have some information about L-Glutamine which I want to share with all of you.

L-Glutamine is energy sources utilized by rapidly proliferating cells. Glutamic acid the most abundant amino group in the human brain. L-Glutamine and Glutamine Powder plays a vital role to building and maintenance of muscle tissue.
More detail please visit: http://www.nutrovita.com/store/l-glutamine.htm

I hope this information will be useful for you.
