Bagwork How hard should heavy bag be ?

[Trabaho]

The top of the foot bone when pressed. It’s not super bad but it’s enough to hurt when kicking a bag and when I press it with the heel of my over foot.

It’s been like that for a couple years now. My foot has been rested for a long time

How long have you rested it the most at a time ? Does it hurt when running ?

You should get it checked out. I got free health care, so when I probably tore my left glute I got it checked. Actually scanned my hip bone and was shocked it was normal. Than other doctor said it was my muscle. Sent me to scan it and I just never went lol. Took me 1 year to recover. I bet I tore my left glutes. I barely could walk for a month.

You probably never recovered your foot and are a training addict.

Maybe doctor will tell you to not use your lower body for 3 months. Like you can just do push ups ect.

You're just making it even more chronic.

- Did you scam that? I helped a guy train for a fight, he had a little bone on his feet sticking at skin, but he said didnt hurt, so someday he got to check his knee joint with a ortopedist, and the dude noted the bone. Lost cntact with the guy years ago. but he fixed at the time.

- This is true. We used feetguard in karate and tkd.

I had a 100 lb bag for many years that was hard as stone and never softened up. Aside from using it regularly I wailed on it with a baseball bat, dumbbells. Nothing worked. I eventually just pulled some stuffing out of it and it was much better. Sometimes they're packed so tight there just isn't anywhere for the shit inside to go.

What do you need a heavy bag for?

Sometimes unconventional works . Particularly trying not to bust your azz on ice this was supposed to be a warm up but I called it a day after almost sliding off my feet ..lol

A bag should be a large target and mimic a human body but still have minimal sway and that’s th3 trick , bags are hung way to high in most places this is no good ……this was the bag I used to hit it was hung on a 4 chain iron beam on both sides of the top bag and was just about anchored to the ground so it had no place to go .

A moving bag lets you work on moving and punching in a way a stationary bag doesn’t.

We’re talking power punching though ,you can’t develop power on a moving bag I know that’s a fact . You need something stationary where when you hit it the force you generate should be coming back at you and your entire body should feel it because that’s what will condition you to hitting something heavier.

A gym should always have that bag where you can do this , a bag moving all around is kind of a waste really an opponent isn’t going to be wobbling around on a chain bouncing all around you could be moving around a bag that doesn’t move much which would actually mimick a real fight more . A bag should be used mainly for set sequencing punching , moving around you really do on other bags or shadow boxing or other excercises like jump squats cutting off the ring movements Etc etc

Having one bag it’s vital to do it right if one really wants to correct their overall performance it’s why guys like Mike Tyson used bags that didn’t move anywhere he was able to utilize his sequences on the target and at the same time develope power .

If a heavy bag is constantly moving you cannot really pivot into another position for another angle to hit it appropriately your to busy looking at a wobbly thing bouncing all over the place .
