Agility, speed, balance, reaction time and hand-eye coordination
are some of the most important skills necessary for survival in
the boxing ring. One of the best tools to help a boxer develop
these skills is the speed bag. Most, if not every, notable boxer
is very proficient at working the speed bag. However, you don’t
have to be a boxer to benefit from using the speed bag. A non-
boxer can realize all the same benefits—and get a great workout
at the same time.
Learning how to hit a speed bag without guidance can be
extremely difficult and frustrating. This handbook was created for
beginners to speed bag training. You will learn how to master the
basic punches, increase the frequency of your hits and progress
to combination punches. The simplest and best way to learn the
speed bag is to master each step before continuing to the next
level. Start slowly—and practice, practice, practice.
