How To Hit a Speedbag

[BLASSTOID]

@ivegotabfmv...doesn't matter bro....if u set it up good it should be no problem

[ivegotabfmv]

i dnt mean to sound like an idiot but ive just bought myself a cheapass speedbag + mount and all, how important is the type of bag, swivel and board u use? does it matter atall?

[Madorem]

i remember i was 13 when i started using it, took me about 30 minutes to get it down. is that normal?

[juanrosa46]

Sick dude explained and sampled nicley thanks!!

[LASuperboy]

this shit looks easy but believe me it's not...it gets really frustrating when you're starting out

[B1IGMAN]

wowww awesome thanks for that

[fernandoluis7]

I am going to use your advice. Most people do not teach the right technique so that one can develop the proper form as one advances in the training. Thank you.

[Samurai7able]

very nice!!

[markfire1000]

excellent trainer... good job giving a nice practical tip...

[rodeo179]

i have never done this. what is the benefit, the bag looks very light? is it just for speed in punching?

[mkmoloch]

@rodeo179 Yes, it helps speed, and the bag is virtually weightless. You could push it around with your pinky finger like it's not even there.

[AC4Dude]

Hi, i just uploaded a video before and i was wandering if anyone could watch it and give me an tips on what i could improve on? would be much appreciated :) thankyou!

[tkokid57]

actually i just looked on youtube search shane mosley speedball training, that is exactly how you are supposed to do it moving around it, it is ten times harder to do then just standing there. if you could see his legs you would be able to see he is lifting the while hitting it kind of like when you are actually fighting, manny pacquiao even does it in his videos and there are like 100 people in his way take pictures while he works out

[mkmoloch]

@tkokid57 Well this is more of a tutorial for people starting out.

[ezjon1985]

Great tips. will try them next session...

[GidzGreazy]

Best tutorial

[tkokid57]

i know you are trying to show newbs how to use it, but you are also supposed to move around the speed bag while hitting

[ezjon1985]

@tkokid57 can you post a vid of this moving round pls?

[tkokid57]

@ezjon1985 yes if i can get someone to go to the gym with me next time i go i will, Iusually can't get anyone to go though because the gym is in the hood,

[bonkthetube]

good teacher.

[SnowballGaming]

His hands dropped at the end

[aychavito]

Thanks a lot for your tutorial!!! From Mexico!!

[lene325420]

hey pussy boi u have to hit it sqaure not like a hammer lear the harder way you poon that bag is so flat im 17 and would work that bag all night

[ty99999returns]

THanks so much for posting. that trick you taught us to get out other hand use to it was really useful. by far the best tutorial on the speed bag!

[carlosb1]

5 morons cant install the speed bag..lol

[carlosb1]

Haha kool man thanks!

[MAD6699]

Now I Kno :D



[PalangiKB]

Great tutorial Master Scott!

[mondo88]

good video thank you

[MrRebdog911]

i can go aheaad and name a couple of things this guy is teaching you wrong right her. #1 his hands are down and if you practice with your hands down that is where they are going to stay. #2 you want to hit it with the back side of your hand and hit it more thean 2 times because it develops hand to eye coordination and gets you use to hitting it.. you have a karate belt on go kick something

[ingenious138]

I notice that you hit first with the left hand -- I must ask, are you a South Paw?

[third233]

Great video! Thanks Scott.

[ramrattansolanki]

Awesome

[scalifire]

good stuff



[ERNESTO5800]

THANX HOMIE

[mjm2005]

thank you sirrrrr!

[WesthamDB]

All other videos say either just use all your knuckles or just use the back of the hand? wht is right!

[WesthamDB]

Good stuff i didnt even realise you had to hit it with your knuckles then the back of your hand i was just hitting it with the back of my hand. good video.

[1996ragnar]

@boarding5401

Why is there always an asshole commenting on people hitting the "dislike" button?

[killajoy714]

This video is awesome! I am completely new to speedbagging and just got mine set up today. After about 2 hours, I am now pretty good, thanks to the techniques you showed in this video!

[chrismarksbury]

Sensei Palangi is an awesome instructor...great video!!!

[gtor71]

Thanks man, as an amateur, I think that's the most helpful video I've seen yet. Much appreciated.

[jozyboy]

very good video..

[conworldus]

Thank you so much!

[Retroman2000]

Cool...Ill try that now

[Flex2012Juggernaut]

Why do you teach to hit with 3 knuckles and not 2? Is there a specific way to hit with all three as to not injure your 3rd knuckle?

I'm just curious because for the last 12 years that I have been training and teaching TKD I have always known and taught to hit with your first 2 to prevent injury to the other 2 knuckles. Trying to expand my knowledge.

[ogonga94]

@Flex2012Juggernaut If you look at your wrist while trying to hit your target in line with the center of your chest with the two knuckles, the wrist bends outward, and away from you. It's harder to concentrate your punch like that while wearing gloves and turning your whole body into the punch. When boxers throw punches, the punch goes across the body's centerline, so it's much more natural to keep the wrist relaxed and punch with the three knuckles. It may also help spread the impact.

[Flex2012Juggernaut]

@ogonga94 Now that I am trying to two different motions on a speed bag I understand what you are saying. Thank you for the thorough and informative explanation.

[MrPaxinbello1]

Hey Scott--thanx for the instruction, i'm lookin forward to employing your technique on the speeed bag. see ya at Lowes again - Vinny

[bigbillyrox]

Great video, thanks for sharing your expertise!

[rp1guy]

Great video, I can honestly say that because of Palangi kickboxing I am a happier human being.

[maxdevjesse]

Master Palangi is the best trainer around. He's knowledgable, motivating and demands results. When he speaks, I listen! Learn from him and you'll be better for it...

[sdebiasa]

Master Palangi is just that a master... great video!

[51182123]

Great job on the speed bag tutorial.  Follow Master Palangi's advice and you'll soon be hitting the speed bag like a pro.

[madrid556]

[19jramirez]

Without a doubt, really helpful. Hopefully he puts more videos up because the live strong videos fucking suck.

[dun4ukwitmebiach]

Thank you Mr. Speedbag bag man!

[katmandu699]

STOP IT WITH BOTH HANDS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheGazzaful]

A boxer & a martial artist will always come into conflict! No you don't always have to go twice each arm, there's plenty of variations you can do on the bag mate

[MmmTouchMe]

that looks so baller



[TheAcidgum]

you are without any doubt a real master

[xDIESLOWx]

very good video!

[fyckthissht]

I whip all yall niggas asses

[gtbcs123]

@fyckthissht stfu

[Solowizard]

I don't see anything wrong with hitting the speed bag with one hand for a while, because when you're boxing, you would normally use your jab for a while before you throw your lead punch. In this way, the speed bag is used as a training tool to mimic what you would do in the ring. Most videos like this focus primarily on just hitting the speed bag, as opposed to demonstrating how it correlates to boxing.

[123456789imthatguy]

@Solowizard by only hitting it twice instead of a bunch of times with only one arm your able to increase your hand eye coordination and timing for both hands.. much more effective than just hitting with only one hand and i dont need to tell you how precision striking correlates to boxing

[Solowizard]

@123456789imthatguy - I don't disagree with that.

[Solowizard]

Instead of focusing entirely on hitting the speed bag as if that alone was some sort of career, I wish there was a tutorial that went into more detail on how hitting the speed bag relates to boxing.

[gtbcs123]

good vid

[UnknownGamerSketchy]

man i love speed bag's

[itsCONTROVERSY]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[92Sevv]

What Martial Art style does he do? I'm curious...

[truebeliever786]

Thank you man. That'll help.

[brainiacgr]

i have a problem...my bag is not coming back so fast...:/ what's the problem..?

[lilogboy14]

@brainiacgr NEEDS MORE AIR MAYBE 

[johnnwaters]

@brainiacgr bags usually come with a stock rubber bladder, but the plastic ones are better and bouncier. u have to buy those seperate. doesn't make sense, but its true

[brainiacgr]

The problem is on the locker, something's wrong there...i don't know.

[TheGazzaful]

Fair play to you mate I thought you were a boxer but noticed your black belt!!

[arizonamythtv]

Great video. Thank you for doing this.

[ozzyfreak994]

damnn man u really helped me out! im a new boxer and i was pretty much doing all the wrong things u stated hahaha....well ill keep these tips in mind for 2moro when i hit the gym

[MolagBal89]

thank you! awesome informative vid!

[TheRealTKnibbs]

Great vid!!!

[UnderstandingAll]

SON... That made sense. Bklyn.

[hmafia03]

that helps alot thanks

[hmafia03]

that helps alot thanks

[electrodinobot]

my brother made a custom top thing for the sppedbag...its about 6mm thick...is that okay? will it bounce off right?

[mmafreak11]

Here is a question pl answer! when hitting a speed bag do you hit then let it bounce once then hit again or do you hit then let it bounce twice????????

[TheRealTKnibbs]

@mmafreak11 fist, then back, then front, then back, then fist

[mmafreak11]

@TheRealTKnibbs yeah man thanks ive figured it out and your right.

[THETOMANATOR2]

fantastic tips

[fernandoluis7]

Thanks so much, no one in the gym ever like to help, and if you do ask they just make you feel dumb for asking! great advise!

[BlEaChFaN897]

where can i download this video to show to the idiots i train with?

[richardtiffin]

good video, well explained

[crimetime15]

Hey, my speed bag isn't going fast enough. Please help?

[dragonbut]

Very informative!! Great video

[TheStreetking317]

awesome video man! the right way to hit the bag

[nismo606]

Master!! At the speed bag!!

[Rilamin67]

Very nice video. Thanks

[JohnBoxing1]

Excellent video great for explaining how to hit a speed bag but I can assure you that there is nothing wrong with hitting the bag with one hand for an extended period of time. This video seems to tell you to just use the same technique over and over again and variation is wrong. Again great video but I just doesnt make sense for someone trying to learn the many benefits of the speed bag.

[PacificFlows]

i thought you were never supposed to land your punches on the weaker three knuckles of your hand. instead i was always lead to believe that you should try to land your punches on the middle and index knuckles to avoid boxers fractures.

...?

[Rodchesterlol]

@PacificFlows yeah but for hitting a speed bag your not actually fully punching really so hitting with the other three knuckles makes it easier to recover for the followup hit.

[l2HaWfAx]

nice brother thanks for the help

[EXQD2]

thanks man awesome video but i have a question, why would you ever punch something with your pinky knuckle??? Top three i could understand but the bottom three???

[dannizz1e]

amazing video, i learned alot from this

[blackbloodvomitorium]

this is the correct way to do it! great lesson!

[MrBulletproof07]

thats what i do and i havnt seen the skunk master do that yet i guess i miss it cause hes to fast lmao

[foornaa]

"and thats how you do a speedbag. thanks"

what a beauty

[kooljose123]

No No No Thank You! >:|

-Link Justice

[Ivan1781]

good video i learned alot

[PhantomPiney]

Thank You ...your video was very informative and I will do my best to apply your technic into my own training. Thank you so much.

[smpoinde]

good teacher. I like the 2 hits "stop" as a progession to the next step

[rob67ghost]

awesome lesson. thanks scott

[icantthinkofascreen1]

great video best on you tube

[BMXBEN1196]

this guy is such a punk and people actually pay him...watch your wife and girlfriend around him

[abyssofjosh]

@BMXBEN1196 ahahaa y?

[NotoriousMick]

This is the best speed bag training video on you tube

[MrBenmartinez]

Good informative video and the techniques were well explained! Thank you, I'm going to try them out!!!

[hulk90000]

thanks

[maxallmighty22150]

flupe flop fleep flerp flink

[StevenRM2402]

definately one of the best speed bag videos online.... way better then that live strong video

[TwinSkies]

My thanks for this video. I've recently gotten into boxing, and this will definitely help me keep an eye on what I should be doing properly.

[omniblue77]

Good video. I'm not sure of striking with the pinky and ring knuckle, as I've been taught to stirke with the middle and index knuckle.

[Operation60]

well you do strike with the middle and index knuckle just not on the speed bag cause ive been taught how to do that to

[dav00ss]

thanks man

[barbellz]

Great advice, ill try it next time on a bag, i too hit it hammer style

[laynick1]

best speed bag video online

[MrUbitchU]

this guy by far shows you best how to hit the speed bag

[rayseanjomaya]

fantastic tutorial, thanks.

[randyrhoads6]

Great instructional video.

[NiggaPlease2222]

DAMN GOOD!

[PhillyB217]

Good Video! I was taught to hit it with 1 hand 5 times then switch, it worked out for me. what type of martial arts do you practice? check out my video Speedbag Combinations.

[sha2smoove]

good video... do u have an email adress i wanna ask some questions

[jodyjaywatson31]

Good video man! Nice the way you explain it. that will help a lot of people. The guy that taught me how to box hit straight one after the other, all straight punches. I do all the hammer fist one after another and have my speed bag a little high to work the triceps harder, and then work on real fast speed. This will also develop the triceps to keep your hands up. Good video, I liked the way you explained it-jody

[rockhard2407]

cool ill try it I hit both times hammer style

so I bet it will take some time ti hit with my knuckels on the first punch with each hand.

like you said I got good at doing it wrong

[100percentserious]

wow dude that was amazing!!

thx dude

and yeah though i dont know how to hit a speed bag yet, but when i do im gonna try ur way!!!!!!

[tossmysalad67]

dang thanks alot dude you help alot

[02bash]

wow really helpful, what i dont understand why do you have to punch the bag 2 different ways knuckles than palm

[Joeboxer89]

Nice instructional video your hott I'd like private lessons.

[bagpuncher]

good,my brotha from anotha motha

[TheniLetTheAlpinePla]

This video was great! it even looks better when you hit it that way! As soon as I saw this vid I ran to my spped bag and tryed it but I dont have a very good sppedbag so when I get a better one this video will come in handy.

[42047]

awesome video brother!!

[daauer]

Very good Scott! That's exactly how I was taught when in my teens (double strike). All the other techniques follow. I haven't seen the hand grab but it could definitely help a beginner. I hadn't hit a speed bag in over 40 years. I started again 2 years ago Bursitis in my shoulder is gone and I lost fifty pounds in part to my 20 minute daily speed bag workout. Also great oration!!

[thraavenunder]

Kick ass thanks man that helped alot

[dpspeedbag]

Good stuff that was the way I started awesome bro!.

[rosscius]

cool. i gotta agree it's better that way than way most people do. thanks.

[showstopper316]

It actually works I love it! I was hitting the damn thing like a goof,I appreciate it thanks
