Speed Bag Workout #1

Speed Bag Workout #1

Speed Bag Workout 1 of 3

 

This is an awesome conditioning workout that you can do that will do the following:

  • Develop Explosive Cardio
  • Toughen shoulders and arms due to sustained flexion
  • Develop hand-eye coordination
  • Develops mental rhythm for sustainable focus

The exercise is 3 3-5 minute rounds.

Warning: I know to some of you this may sound like cake, but after a minute of hitting the speed bag intensely, the seconds start ticking noticeably slower.

Don't forget that as one blocks, the other one hits. Start slow until you develop the a consistent pace. This is a skill that develops over time.

Challenge: Try to hop as you hit the speed bag for an increased cardio workout.

In this video Chris is using the EZspeedbag -- a door-mounted speed bag that also doubles as a pull-up bar, but it should be noted that this exercise can be done with any speedbag. Remember that the smaller the bag, the higher difficulty it is.
