[@memphetic]

Came to type this comment... disappointed...

[@JoZeJo]

It was too much for him, he was holding on for dear life there at the end.

[@letscookimhungry7316]

LOL

[@jonmerrick2239]

Bro is really good and his timing and speed are incredible 👍🏼👍🏼💯

[@gospelofgrace1]

Sickest demonstration ever , not one missed hit for at least the first few minutes 👌💯

[@PeonLfg]

Now, we need a video game company developing a Speed bag "pad" and an appriopriate beatmania game to use it. Would buy it.

[@terryroberts5309]

Thats a great idea better than guitar hero I have the rhythm of a dead donkey on those games but put a speed bag in front of me 😁😁😁😁 happy for hrs cant say the same for people living with me lol cant practice like I want because it annoys people so 🥺 but am getting good

[@gsg9ff]

It is rumored that wooden platform was used by many boxing legends as early as Dempsey.

[@ffryan]

Love watching true artists perform.

[@Allan4homes]

Awesome skills!

[@FireEater]

Conditioning your shoulder into keeping your hands up,muscle memory you can't miss.

[@ffryan]

Yup. That is a huge reason why all boxers do speed bag work.

[@PaulOrientedotcom]

Matt, always amazing to watch you hit the bag. Hope to be able to see you one day in NJ at one of the seminars. Respect!

[@angelgeeks]

Thanks for sharing! Matthew made it all look very easy and while it is once you know how. Of course knowing how and doing aren't always the same. To get to the level these people are at requires time and commitment. Keeping ones arms elevated, moving in varying directions and keeping varying rhythms punching a moving bag can be a bit tiring on some of the muscles used after a while. It's been awhile since I've spent time on the speed bag and after watching everyone doing their thing, I just may have to get back at it again. Very inspiring! Thanks again!

[@SpaghettiKing777]

That's amazing

[@michaelbradley5603]

This is pretty humbling, good demonstration and very talented people

[@rsbnyla8006]

AMAZING!!!!!

[@KazmoJones]

Wow! Awesome!

[@user-eb4iq2jw3y]

So inspiring. Thanks Dude. I find it so addicting. I have one in the garage and can’t walk past it without hitting the damn thing.

[@terryroberts5309]

Best speed bagger in the world wow a honour to the guys and ladys wish i got into it sooner think it would have changed my life but no regrets.

[@terryroberts5309]

08:32 the end punch was nice ive been putting that in my sessions epic performance the elbows are so clean and the moving while punching 👊👍👊

[@thealchemistfitnesscenter]

impressive.

[@haroldmcclellan3448]

I like that stuff

[@billr2375]

Our YMCA does that Parkinsons Boxing workout that was mentioned---complete with speed bag workouts that benefit the brain area as was mentioned in the video. Nice to see folks working it. They also have a seperate speed bag for us duffers that try hard as heck to look like they do in this video---to no avail, but the workout is incredible. IT helps too with my hockey skills--hand/eye/timing/reaction. All Good. Try it--get a bag put up in basement or garage.

[@terryroberts5309]

Ive watched this few times now its great wish I had a decent set up

[@haroldmcclellan3448]

First time seeing it

[@lhayes7516]

Wow looking at this even makes me more grateful I found your work. Punch drumming is awesome and you are a wonderful teacher!!! Mind blown! I'm going to use this to maintain my recovery!! 6 months now! Thank you again for sharing. I can never repay this.

[@jlev505]

Props for giving respect to Alan. The dude with the cane is expressionless?! I think he 💩 his pants or was mid stroke….😂

[@deskfive2905]

He even got kernel kfc's attention there at the back

[@carolward9177]

What size bag is that

[@ct2901]

8 x 5

[@onedayillpay]

Do you have any videos where you put some power behind it... I seen a few burst of power. I want to see more.

[@onedayillpay]

I have a few videos. Check mine out

[@lfvette0]

What is the purpose of a speed bag for boxing

[@0ckwa]

Increase endurance, build up hand eye coordination, train rhythm

[@DoomRater]

luis wilding Any time there's a learning curve your brain has to grow to compensate. More grey matter, tougher fighter. One you've learned it, your shoulders get blasted and it's possible to just ride the speed and take it easy too, meaning you can do a meaningful workout without over training. (Phone autocorrect edits)

[@Joaco-R]

Mister jagger?

[@Sarcoma1]

KFC dude

[@CalebStevensOutdoors]

@3:45 nah we didnt see you pick yo nose

[@miguelgutierrez5124]

[@muhammadfarid954]

Kfc founder detected

[@loboloco8914]

Nice....but who is that lady with the striped dress? Sorry...couldn't stop looking at her....haha

[@jemsultan]

Dude. I'm not joking or trolling. you gotta go on America's got Talent. Seriously. I think you could do well. Get like 5 guys and do a whole medley.

[@terryroberts5309]

What? Lol

[@kuina041612]

donde esta la enseñanza ahí ahí sólo esta de presumido en que forma esta enseñando vato mamila que mal me cae cuando quieren emitar el ritmo de la música

[@victorcuen9861]

kuinator28 you can't even do this.

[@umadbra]

See that Karen just cuts in front of others just so she can film it?

[@kidcopper7941]

Big deal. He is hitting a bag is as big as a beach ball.

[@williiamahkuoi6483]

As a former amateur boxer (usa boxing), we don't waste our time doing these fancy tricks. We get our reps done, and move on to the next workout. That is not to say that this is not an important part of a boxer's workout, but getting all the routine stuff (warm ups, ab workouts, jump rope, etc.) out of the way, and getting to the shadow boxing, heavy bag, mitts and sparring is where I used to put most of my focus. What you guys do though is pretty amazing.

[@VolV8]

Shuddup, William.

[@StealthElectronVIP]

You are busted bro, mashed in the head, this isn't boxing, this is a performance as he stated at the beginning of the video. It's nothing to do with fighting.

[@mr.houndoom9634]

i get ya but your comment is pointless, maybe you should listen to what he says in the beggining

[@DoomRater]

Williiam Ah Kuoi Take some time to learn some tricks. Learning develops brain cells and that toughens up a fighter. Why do you think people swear by the rope despite its learning curve?

[@ffryan]

Why did you have to try and tear the guy down? Why couldn't you just write, "What you guys do though is pretty amazing" and leave it at that?

[@davidson2004fatboy]

ALL for SHOW, U NEVER SEE REAL BOXERS PLAYING GAMES WITH BAG LIKE THIS ! REVERSE ROLL, SO YOU CAN PUNCH YOURSELF IN the FACE ? LIKE REALLY

[@ct2901]

You are correct. It's just for show. Nothing to do with boxing. Here is your gold star 🌟

[@CheckYourPremises]

Looks cool and everything, but absolutely useless for boxing....

[@yugen]

It does help create endurance for keeping your hands up. But yeah I agree, it's not the most effective tool for training actual boxing.

[@handybobandy]

He is not doing it in any way as a purpose to train for boxing, he is not a boxer even. He is a musician.

[@hyperkaioken4982]

this comment is so retarded considering he explains all this >.>

[@DoomRater]

I'll take killer shoulders and a way to go 100% without overtraining please. Speed bag is anything but useless for boxing.

[@mattg3696]

That’s why all the pros use them. Thank god for the comment section. Always good for a laugh

[@MrRobScho]

I can't imagine a more useless skill.
