How to Practice Defense on a Heavybag

[@cronin5488]

What the hell shane, you got some psychic powers. I was just in my basement asking how I would defend with the heavybag, then you post this. Much love anyways.

[@brandonivan8076]

Cronin same...wtf

[@kanekyer6655]

i was at the gym today and i was thinking how to do defense on the heavy bag... dang bro

[@FirstStrikeAthletics]

Cronin there seems to be some sort of weird psychic KZbin thing. Creator often upload something similar within a day of each other, and stuff like this that you mentioned.

[@Luffytaro39]

Cronin your not the first one lol in other vids people ask themselves something and Shane uploads im pretty sure he psychic powers

This video was urgently needed for younger fighters to watch.

[@chiyookeynes3007]

I've worked out on traditional heavy bags kzbin.infoUgkxp9-sf95nqfjey-uyzxUzQ7m9MXRPK1BE a spherical stuffed "wrecking ball" bag, and now this thing. What I like about it is that it has the heft to stay largely in place so I'm not chasing it around. It's tall enough to allow for headshots and body shots, but it's short enough to give an uppercut somewhere to land. I'm very happy so far. Filling it was a bit of a cluster. For top-offs, I've learned that you can screw the supplied nozzle onto any basic plastic water bottle. I can't speak to durability as I've only had it a week.

[@Spykidzink]

Shane you’ve helped me so much with fighting thank you for everything you don’t understand how much you’ve helped me

[@Malitubee]

Brooo the synchronicity of this is crazy , I was just wondering how I could work my defense on the heavy bag this morning

[@suicidalmode5775]

Nice!! Another one btw i wanna see ur sparring with the wonderboy

[@deceo2119]

Whenever I'm on the bag I can't help but change stances. And I have a few different techniques I like to go to in South paw. But some pointed out to me that it's easy to be offensive in both stances but not defensive. I noticed how much more awkward things like footwork and head movement is from the opposite stance. These drills are gonna be great for tightening defence in both stances. Top class again Shane.

[@InTheBleakMidwinter]

great angle on heavy bag training, you're correct to point out the insufficiencies that could result from relying too much on its use. Whether in the ring or on the street, keeping this in mind is essential, thanks for the great content as always

[@Consolous]

I'm glad I also thought that when the bag is swinging, it is like the opponent is fighting back. I still need to watch lessons on blocking and evading but I am getting better at my footwork.

[@TheMasterOE]

I work the punching bag once every week at my gym and your videos have really helped me tighten up on my skills. I’m not necessarily training for competition I use it as more of a workout, but if I am going to do something I would rather gain knowledge and do it correctly. Thanks, Shane!

[@corynorell3686]

Started boxing a couple months back; don't have any training partners outside of class. This shit is invaluable; thank you. Edit: Also, can someone tell me when some more fightTIPS gloves will be dropping?

[@freelancer5816]

Don't forget to keep those nice and tight. Eye level.

[@iMoRpHz]

thanks for the video , it’s nice to know I’m a step ahead of the beginners that don’t know how to move around the bag. It makes me feel good.

[@daabooks]

I just got a heavy bag and right after I bought it I see you posting a bunch of tips for the heavy bag. Appreciate it!

I remember how devastating you were on the heavy bag on the video titled “How to increase punching power” Yeah that little clip helped me hitting this big soab so much

[@yaboyjonez9476]

Parries catches pillars and helmet guards are all staples of a good defense. Parried with footwork and a good jab you'll be unstoppable.

[@KingMally89]

Best video yet! I took a lot of mental notes.

[@high_roller22]

Thank you. I'm moving to another town which is quite far from my team and the only other gym there is far from where I'm going to live. I was thinking of ways to effectively train by myself with my bag. Good stuff, and the way you explain things is easy to understand.

[@gorilla1875]

Actually about to box some friends in a moment and im always looking for great tips and advice to be better overall. Thank you

[@Daxxwabs710]

Great great content. You teach me things on this KZbin channel that even boxing coaches at gyms I have trained at don't give out. It's time for you to start your own gym man you have a talent for coaching 💪

[@miskatonicuniversityavclub202]

Thanks, just moved up to dutch kickboxing classes from muay thai and dutch class is all sparring and between all my home practice being heavy bag, and my background in tkd point sparring i need all the defense practice i can get.

[@tjcobbs7303]

Great video! Your heavybag videos have been really helping me out! Especially the exit strategy! I need to do that more during sparring.

Shane please do a video on the question mark kick

[@Darkness09ization]

Hey Shane, I love watching your videos they're always helpful. Question: Is there a way to set up a defense off your kicks? And could you make a video of the subject?

[@FirstStrikeAthletics]

GolbezSuccessor you mean like practice checking a kick and then return with one?

[@Darkness09ization]

@@FirstStrikeAthletics No. I was more thinking when throw a kick. Like a power kick or roundhouse or even something like an axe/crescent kick and being able to quickly set up a defensive position before being struck by the counter.

[@FirstStrikeAthletics]

GolbezSuccessor ahh, I see. Other than sliding off in the direction of your last kick (finish with right leg, Go right etc.) which is probably the best bet, you could also just back straight out or, keep attacking!

[@AnAverageFan]

I always pretend someone is throwing punches and move around a lot when using a heavy bag

[@jhonatanmandujano]

Great videos and amazing tips 😁

[@bryanp5534]

Damn man. Your footwork is smooth! Good stuff man! 👊🏿

[@freelancer5816]

A heavy bag is good for target practice. Also, an opponent won't stand still or move slowly. Aka heavy bag.

[@bryanp5534]

@@freelancer5816 I feel you, that's why I have a double bag too. I like the work on defense with a heavy bag. A lot of people only have access to just a heavy bag.

[@freelancer5816]

I feel you @ bryan pryor that's great! Study your opponent and the shadow box with imagination, mirror the opponent's unpredictability until their moves become preditable. Feel the punch from those back muscles(your wings) get technical with it. Study their footwork, get comfortable and practice propper breathing techniques. Breathing is key, followed by speed, and power.

[@freelancer5816]

@ Pryor also footwork, there are footwork techniques I am only aware of two; ballpoints and flatfoot. Flatfoot creates grounding, this is where power comes into play. I have arched feet so I can play around with both techniques. I love it! Don't be afraid to mix it up, train to the point where it becomes second nature. Study all fighting arts. Don't forget fundamentals. Don't think about or you WILL lose.

[@FirstStrikeAthletics]

Are you just boxing? It’s amazing how many people will “chase” you down and you circle out (away from their power) and end up putting themselves near the rope and corner all on their own.

[@DamnZodiak]

Good bag work is basically just shadow boxing with resistance.

Damn Zodiak that’s a great way of putting it!
