I remember when I didn't get into boxing yet or any sort of combat sport for the matter and I punched the heavy bag with cheap ass MMA gloves without any wraps, prior conditioning, or proper gloves and my wrist is still fucked up to this day.
One time I was doing an intensity round of 30s. My mind stuck between an uppercut and a hook. Went in the middle and sprained my right wrist. Hurt to do any pushing movements for a while there. Much better now
I would also mention that the endurance you cultivate towards striking does not transfer over well to grappling or submissions work. If striking feels like a calisthenics session, grappling feels like endurance swimming. cultivating these different types of stamina is very useful for MMA training.
We’ve all seen “that guy” who’s clueless w/ a supersized ego & walks over to the heavy bag & starts pounding away at full force with no technique & ends up hurting their wrist or shoulder. 🥊🤦🏻♂️
Thats me, I injured the tendon that goes over the middle finger and it took months to stop hurting, it doesn't hurt anymore but it still moves sometimes I don't like it
I really wanna make a manga with Adam and Grant as the two main, super-OP, characters. One's really strong and overpowered and smart, whilst the other is lightning-fast and powerful and also smart! (Guess which one's which.)
Great video! Honestly, the first good bagwork video I've seen that actually explains all the different mental and physical zones of training used on the bag. So many kickboxing gyms I've gone to that just don't understand basic bagwork and they just teach people to wail on them and burn themselves out. The bag has so many uses but people dont think they just follow what they know or see. The hardest part about bag work for me, is foot work around an unmoving object. I just feel awkward as hell practicing my triangulation and counter strikes on bob because he's so lifeless.
Thanks for the great video. I bought the book "Functional Training and Beyond" and I've started reading it. I'm a big fan of the TH-cam channel The Bioneer. I'm wondering if a video could be made on Human Longevity that includes the right exercise program and the right diet program? A video on how anyone can live as long as possible, I would think using joint friendly exercises to strengthen the cardiorespiratory system, muscles, ligaments, tendons and bones as well as I would think following a plant-based diet. I think on record, the oldest person to have ever lived was a woman from France that made it until 122 years old. Would it be possible to live longer? Thank you for all the hard work to bring us a lot of useful information.
That was great! Thanks. I’d love to see one of these with the double end bag, as I always tend to freeze up and don’t know what to do when training on one.
I would suggest for self defence and power/endurance training as well as mindfulness aggression.Stand hands down and blitz for 5 secs rest 5 repeat for 3mins.
Ever thought of learning wing chun ? It would be very complimentary to your knack for hand replacement strikes and transitional elbows , speed, short but powerful strikes etc
@@SessleIsosceles he might be influenced by people who are saying wing Chun doesn't work. Although a lot of the techniques are pretty difficult to apply realistically, some of them hold a lot of value and it's certainly worth dabbling in to see what you can make work. That being said, I think he hasn't studied or learned wing Chun because he's simply found something else that works for him. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
@@ryanpayton3812 totally agreed, I have been trained in wing chun for 10 years, now I'm getting into full time boxing, I am finding they compliment each other beautifully, application is only limited by one's understanding of the movements , my wing chun isn't broken and nor would I consider boxing trying to fix it, martial arts all share a commonality that enhances you as a artist !
Mr. Sinicki, I have questions. Do you experience soreness throughout the week of your training? Or do you just train for the sake of consistency? Curious to know about the Bioneer's training intensity and also looking for inspiration.
If you're not a beginner and you're pushing yourself til you get sore, you're going too hard. After a few weeks of exercise you should be getting used to it so you don't get sore. It's more about the overall weekly volume for training that is the important bit.
Sage advice and great form, had to adjust me eyes for a few seconds though, I'd just woke up. I thought it must be an old video 👍😎🍀 good luck with the channel, will add.
I notice I get extremely tired on the bag as opposed to shadow boxing and Im wondering if it's because I'm using gloves that are too heavy. I guess I should experiment
I am curious about a few things. What is an effective way to front kick a bag? I worked out the other kicks through trial and error, but front kicks either barely connect or make the bag flop all over the place. Should I wear shoes (and gloves for that matter)? I kind or prefer the feedback of bare feet, but it really, really sucks in the winter, or when you misfire a kick.
8:00 think when you see people as robotic it is you are a very planned fighter and have many combination all forms of fighting for long series diversity.
I would love a video on how to hold pads and hit pads, also when starting out is it better to just practice the martial art/sport for conditioning until you develop consistency for 30-90day then add in other training modalities or should I start trying to follow a modified pro athletes plan?
Personally I think its better to practice the actual sport for however long you need to until you feel comfortable enough to start learning the more complicated things and you don't want to overwhelm yourself by doing a pro athletes routine. I have been doing boxing for about 4-5 years and when I first started I spent a lot of time working on conditioning and technique before getting into the complicated stuff. Also if you are just starting out on the pads make sure to completely focus on technique and accuracy instead of power.
@@maxhooymans3751 thank you so much see i know the pros jog every morning but i just want to consistent with showing up to class first before adding in stuff like that
@@Zaid26127 sorry it was the 8th. Got carried away there. The point is that, it is possible to go full whack for a long time, or should I say, full whack at a constant pace. Joey calzaghe is another example, he was throwing so many punches, in fact he trained for going 60 rounds when leading up to his fight.
@@TwistedSoul2002 calm ya pants down, it was an mis type and go watch the fight and tell me George wasn’t going full whack. Ali even invited him to keep punching him to try and tire him out.
Whats fun about martial arts or martial artists is that they all have their own idea of what's right. ''do it like I do or else you are doing it wrong!''
@@wallcroftbrigs2344 rn I'm not sure which I'll be getting, definitely one that is hooked onto a wall mount, but I've been looking at those ones that are kind of upsidedown cone shaped which makes it easier to throw uppercuts vs a normal shaped heavy bag
Every time i spar, my bag training imprives by 100% because then I know what to do in a fight and how to train that movement. So for me it’s an accesory to the fight. (I am not a pro I mainly do fitness)
Teach yourself. Start slowly and on basics via any learning material. Train infront of a mirror and record yourself. Watch the recording and reflect on yourself. Use your surroundings I.e., draw an even square in your driveway or use kitchen tiles to learn your stance.
@@vsmrc3743 You can't teach yourself, you need a coach and training partners to get even half way decent It's not that hard to find somebody who's had some training to meet with you once or twice a week for a workout
Let me anounce something, Grant stevenson is officially an alpha male as he really broke the medical parameter of having high testosterone, (29 is the medical limit, 29.10 is his score) and his free testosterone which is active testosterone is 0.68 while the medical limit is 0.62. Nowadays TH-cam guys are screaming worthlessly for proving how "Alpha" they are, this guy is literally alpha but he is cool about it and downright providing you great content in his own channel and bioneer. *ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR THIS MAN*

Just a little constructive criticism, the music was just a tad bit too loud at some points and made it a little more difficult to hear what was said
I had to stop watching. The scratchy guitar noise was too annoying while trying to listen to him talk.
The music is too distracting! I like to focus on what is being said and done, I get a lot from this channel and adam is inspiring!

Mr. Sinicki, I have questions. Do you experience soreness throughout the week of your training? Or do you just train for the sake of consistency? Curious to know about the Bioneer's training intensity and also looking for inspiration.
.
Personally, I would recommend doing short amounts frequently for consistency if its skill based and you have the time to be able to do it like that
If you're not a beginner and you're pushing yourself til you get sore, you're going too hard. After a few weeks of exercise you should be getting used to it so you don't get sore. It's more about the overall weekly volume for training that is the important bit.
which martial arts has Grant trained and/or currently trains in? his techniques look so slick!
Probably kickboxing. Maybe Muay Thai, but the lack of knees and elbows make kickboxing more likely.
@@joelhernstrom6060 yeah and his kicks are definetely not thai style
