This book is the definitive manual on speed bag training. The author is the leading authority on using the bag, and the best I have ever seen, hitting non-stop with all fists and elbows. Amazing!
Book Description
This book is the only comprehensive training program ever written specifically about speed bag training. The speed bag is an essential piece of equipment for boxing and it is found in many health clubs and fitness facilities. But it is also a very economical and effective exercise activity for the home. Physical benefits include a terrific shoulder and arm work-out, increased eye-hand coordination and improved rhythm and timing of your movements. Of course, there are obvious self defense benefits, such as increased punching speed and strength, as well as hitting a moving target. However, all of these benefits are attributes needed to play any sport, not just boxing! Regardless of your sport, speed bag training can increase your ability. This book uncovers the secrets of how it works. But since the potential benefits of speed bag training far surpass boxing, this book was not written from the standard "boxing" perspective. Therefore, many areas that are not used in traditional boxer workouts are covered. Also ,the author has developed a simple method to write practice exercises for each technique, and many practice combinations are offered.
It was developed to be used "under the board" during practice sessions. Topics include: equipment, swinging movements, bag rhythms, the difference between techniques and combinations, and individually identifies 24 PUNCHING & ELBOW STRIKING TECHNIQUES from the FRONT, SIDES and BACK of the bag. It clearly develops how these techniques can be joined into hundreds of different combinations. It also address how to use the unique rhythmic sounds of the bag to creatively hit with music, where you can improvise rhythmic "drum solo's" to virtually any song. This makes it the most creative and expressive work out you will ever experience. A special chapter is also included for using MARTIAL ART STRIKES and KICKING techniques. There is even a chapter for coaches and teachers, who are more interested in teaching others. The Speed Bag Bible is aimed at all levels of expertise. Don't forget to check out the two hour videotape also available on Amazon.com.
