Anyone working the heavy bag, film yourself. I thought I was doing everything right until I watched the playback, I was guilty of 90% of things mentioned in this video!
Yea you should film yourself every time if possible With anything you are performing watching your own video and improving what you see wrong will take you a long way
I improved a lot more when i did film watch try better film again watch try better film again and when youre satisfied starting with rounds this helped a lot more than first a couple of rounds and then filmed myself and saying "o i suck tomorow i do this better"
I have to write this comment. It is almost 2 years back from now when my life was not so good and my friend asks me if i dont want to try box. That was the time when my weight stops at maximum 124 kilograms. My first think was to look for some channel and i founded you - Precision Striking and when i had free time i had started to watch your videos to look for some begginer tips and when i see that what you say and show to me is helping me i was keep watching more and more. After 2 years of boxing my weight is on 90 kilograms and again you bring us this absolutely insane video. I have to tell this is one of the best video about training on heavy bag. Man what to say to you? You help me to improve my boxing, you help me to get my motivation back when my life was not so good and actualy you help to improve my life! And all just for follow and subscribe man. What other words to write you more? Hmm Simply in love Peter
I had my first sparring session and the coach said to me the exact same thing. I was not extending my punches especially my jab and was not snapping it as at the end. He said I picked up bad habits from the heavy bag. I was hitting with pit pat punches with speed but not effective. My sparring partner didn’t hit me hard and allowed me to hit him hard which was a very good experience in the ring for me. I have my first boxing match so thank you for this vid and wish me luck. I will try to benefit fully when using the heavy bag.
It’s at the end of October. It’s a charity event they match you up with someone your level. You Head gear and 16 oz gloves and it’s 3 two minute rounds. I’m only 52 KG But have decent power.
Guybrush Threepwood most people at that weight don’t have power so don’t worry about bout getting hurt just use the fight as a training tool to improve your technique and reactions. Good luck and have fun
I just finished my heavybag workout, Recorded it and looking for videos of heavybag mistakes and suddenly this video uploaded. *Feeling super lucky* Precision striking thank you so much 🙏🏼
Coach, just what I needed! A refresher on how to keep it clean on the heavy bag. Too easy to fall into these bad habits especially when your tired and don’t see yourself in a mirror. Thanks for keepin it real and brakin it down!
6:46 "It may take years before they discover this..." bahahah you are so right!! I started my boxing journey about 3 years ago coming from competing in bodybuilding and it took me a year + to learn to release at the end of the punch. I find this doubly amusing because I figure it out finally with shadow boxing/shoe shinning. Thanks for the great video man!
When that ad popped up, my automatic reaction was frustration. But then I realised i am helping u out and now I want u to put more ads. U deserve it man!
12:50 is hilarious!!! "Ah look at this! I can take a Nap" I love your videos man, i watch them and study and practice what you teach. I definitely see all these errors for myself, especially with Raising the Chin. Keep up the posts!
I've been a subscriber for a while now and got into boxing at age 37. I'm going on 40 in a couple months and am now an addict. I can say without question, your channel has helped me learn more than any other. Thank you for all the amazing lessons and content!
If you focus on speed and technique the power will come, try too much for power early on and you'll only pick up habits that will be hard to break later. Love your stuff man!
This is soooo true, too much power before you can good form can cause injuries too, in the first 3 months of training I severely sprained my wrist and had to take 2 months off from a left hook with crappy form- not fun. And even if you do your beginner fights they typically ask you tone down the power and focus on making contact and scoring points (at least that's my experience).
Great tips ! I am love boxing, but being a bit lazy I don't practice much, but now after watching your video, I am ready to start back up. I am guilty of that drop punch, but now that I am aware of it, I will remind myself to check my punches. Again great stuff, thanks.
Keep in mind that striking with the smaller knuckles is fine in boxing when your hands are taped and you're wearing a big, padded glove. But, in a street-fight where you could hit bone, if you hit with those smaller knuckles you will likely break the small bones in your hand. It's hard to finish a fight with broken hands. That's why in karate they teach to only hit with the two larger knuckles and to toughen them up by doing push-ups on them. Plus, hitting with a smaller point concentrates all your power into a smaller spot and allows for deeper penetration. Whole hand hitting the liver - hurts like hell. One or two knuckles hitting the liver breaks a rib and drives it into the liver. Fight over.
BRUH!!! Let me tell you this is the first video I have watched from you. I’m looking for another form of cardio and trying to decide on boxing. Let me tell you that you are THE ONLY one who has assured me about diving into this. Thank you! Your lessons are so to the point and so complete. I never thought I would subscribe to a boxing channel but you will be the first!
JT, u are so correct when mentioning "discovering". For me, this is done mostly during shadow boxing. I'm more in tune of how I deliver a punch and what my body is actually doing.
Love the videos, they really help out on those days when you are tired and just need some pop to get that work in. Looking forward to the headbands as well.
I forgot I had the play speed turned up I was like holy shit this guy is crazy...oh wait lolol still awesome technique and knowledge though, thorough stuff
Excellent video on the proper way to hit the punching bag. The Pre-loading of a punch segment is outstanding! I cannot tell you enough how many times that trainers in all the boxing gyms I was at never told their boxers anything about pre-loading their punches. I dropped boxers by watching them pre-loading their punches warming up and with that minor opening I would launch a counter which they did not see.
Thank you so much. I've been following you for many years now and you bring everytime the same energy man! You're the best coach in YT and out there for real Thank you coach!
I love the heavy bag. If even all you do is 10 rounds per day, your whole body gets a full workout. Of course this subsumes one has progressed through requisite footwork training. In a year one would lose a lot of weight, develop and condition the fighting muscles, and believe it or not, increase strength and lifting power. No weightlifting required, but if you must, only do dumbbells, kettle weights and such. Trust me, it works. Thanks.
I like the way you explained it, working on heavy bag as far I knew about boxing, punching on a heavy bag was just a big waste of time because when I deliver my hook, I keep my elbow down and not keeping the lower chin also my distance wasn't calculated. Thanks for this video. It helps me developing my skills for boxing.
In Karate we hit with the first two knuckles because they are the strongest ones and we hit without gloves. But the defense in Karate is mostly only managed by distance. The defense in boxing is a good addition for a Karate guy. You are a very good teacher with a very clean technique. Love your videos.
That release thing, been doing boxing for almost 1 year and just learned recently about that release. But i think thats the time when your muscles adjust to the punch
JT you've been an invaluable resource man. I eventually will get onto your site to patron, I appreciate this content. Thanks so much. I'm one month in to boxing so I've got a LONG way to go but my goal is to be a good boxer, and you have helped in that regards.
Your a cool guy not alot of people mention letting your shoulder blade slide forward. Alot of weight lifters ehilst lifting keep their scapula back and down to prevent shoulder injury, and may as a result assumr when punching it should stay locked too
Really enjoy watching you work the heavy bag! I noticed some of your punches actually remind me of Roy Jones jr. Throwing several lefts, like maybe two jabs and then stepping in further and delivering a punishing cross, or even a shovel hook or uppercut! Great heavy bag tactic to hype your arsenal of punches! Keep it coming coach! I can't wait to get my own bag and really get down to work! Thank You!
11:52 thats probably the most exaggerated thing i ever seen in boxing lmao, it was hilarious for me. i mean, i seen others lean in when punching, but that was too leaning in lol
Being old and having lots of years of practicing and studying sweet science, I always learn something from your films, it says something either about me being poor at boxing or your films being great :)
Thanks for the video. Great as always . But for me its hard to " release" the hits because i had a surgery on the shoulder. I am allowed to go full power again, but still worrying about dislocating it again :/
Maybe if you train your shoulders more you would feel more comfortable. I had a similar problem with my wrist so I trained it way more. Now it's almost completely fine. Ask your trainer for some shoulder exercises if you still have that problem
Thanks for share Teacher. Even does not speak english I like to much watch all your videos time and time again I pause it! I rewind it! And I "understand it" Lol. Thanks. Receive an hug from Angola.
4:05 "... like there's a bug on the bag you just want to squash it". That's what I've been telling my friends, only that I said an egg instead of a bug. I should try imaginary cockroach next time. Great video.
Anyone working the heavy bag, film yourself. I thought I was doing everything right until I watched the playback, I was guilty of 90% of things mentioned in this video!
Yea you should film yourself every time if possible

100% do this and can find stuff to work on always. You always look better in your head haha.

non stop good content, it´s unreal. one of the best boxing channels, IMO
Whats IMO
@@pwepwe2378 In my opinion.
And your opinion is correct
8:21 ... "So it's not just about keeping the chin down, it's about practising at fight pace with the chin down"
_This is gold_
I just finished my heavybag workout, Recorded it and looking for videos of heavybag mistakes and suddenly this video uploaded. *Feeling super lucky*
Precision striking thank you so much 🙏🏼
Man, ive been boxing for a year and it was your channel that made my skill go up.
straight-up best boxing coach I've seen
Best boxing channel on TH-cam. I love that you always emphasize proper diligent form in training. Quality over quantity.
what im seeing he's missing key body movements that create power strikes, so far im not that impressed
Your tutorials are comprehensive ,full of clarity and bursting with content . Love it ! Thank you🦾
12:20 "look at this" I can almost have a 3 second nap" 🤣🤣 that was hilarious
6:58 when you realize villagers also box
😂

Solid! Thank you
I just bought my son a heavy bag, he loves it, so this is good timing from my perspective, lots of good tips, some I didn't think of.
If you focus on speed and technique the power will come, try too much for power early on and you'll only pick up habits that will be hard to break later. Love your stuff man!
How the power will come?
This is soooo true, too much power before you can good form can cause injuries too, in the first 3 months of training I severely sprained my wrist and had to take 2 months off from a left hook with crappy form- not fun. And even if you do your beginner fights they typically ask you tone down the power and focus on making contact and scoring points (at least that's my experience).
Best boxing advice I ever received! Good job!
Gold as always man. Can't wait to get out of this cubicle and try out the new tips
Great pointers. Thanks for sharing! I still remember your first heavy bag mistakes video and it helped a lot. 👍👌
I appreciate that!
@@PrecisionBoxing What brand of bag gloves do you to recommend?Thanks!Great videos!
Hey coach, thanks for this video! This is the best beginners' mistakes videos on YT!
Great tips ! I am love boxing, but being a bit lazy I don't practice much, but now after watching your video, I am ready to start back up. I am guilty of that drop punch, but now that I am aware of it, I will remind myself to check my punches. Again great stuff, thanks.
This is pure awesome. One of the best videos on youtube.
Been boxing for years and even avid boxers need to be reminded of the basics. And u touched on a lot of things trainers never talk about.
Thanks. I learn something new every time.
Alot has been learned from your channel, thanks coach!
“This is hard work”- great video, great energy!
I’m getting the most out of a heavy bag session
Awesome... I wish I had him as my trainer.
is it just me or does he look like nate diaz ?
Now that you mention it...🤔
Nah I thought that too
Glad someone mentioned it😂. I thought I was just crazy
☠☠☠ i been watching for months and i couldnt figure out who he reminded me of.
"hit the bag like your squashing a bug" I liked that one
Damn
I'm happy to see that I do none of these mistakes.
Awesome content, dude.

I’m 66 and have been working out the heavy bag off and on for 46 years. This was an excellent video !
Great tips Brody Much appreciated!!👍🏼👍🏽👍🏼💪🏽
Love the videos, they really help out on those days when you are tired and just need some pop to get that work in. Looking forward to the headbands as well.
Love your videos always helping me out best boxing TH-camr imo
Thanks for the video Coach.🙏
I’ve been doing the tape thing on my bags for years. Also use the kids sidewalk chalk.
Came to this channel through the shorts, great idea doing them, kudos for you and keep up the good work.
the three second nap 😂

This is such a golden nugget of info. The chin line indicator makes so much sense to do. Thanks for this, amazing stuff as always.
At 1:57 he meant 2 big knuckles. you don't want to use your ring finger knuckle.
I’ve been binge watching your vids. Awesome work. I’m learning a lot of good info. You earned another subscriber.
"Releasing the scapula" is a great visualization cue to describe proper extension. Thanks coach.
That release thing, been doing boxing for almost 1 year and just learned recently about that release. But i think thats the time when your muscles adjust to the punch
On the bag I always use the logo as a chin marker personally
Thank you I make a lot of mistakes your video is going to help me a lot

Great advice. I shadow box a lot with a tree in the park
King Murphy I like trees that are in parks 🌲. Bushes are cool too
I bet you are that type that shadow box with trees in a park 😂😂🤡

I'm about to go on the TTC. All good tips for the morning commute. Will try.
Another great video coach! Thank you -------
Been following this account sense the days of that first video! Love the channel man
I love this guy, all this valuble information in one video, he is the best
Amazing Things to think about! definitely need to drill out some of these techniques.
You should remake that video on visualizing to improve your boxing as there are many ideas in that video that should be resurfaced imo.
11:52 thats probably the most exaggerated thing i ever seen in boxing lmao, it was hilarious for me.
i mean, i seen others lean in when punching, but that was too leaning in lol
Use as many muscles as possible in your punch, including those rotators and potentially the glutes like you're saying.
Nice solid advice, thanks so much.
Congratulacion Teacher!!! Thanks!!
Lolol 3 second nap lol I will always remember that when I catch myself leaning into the bag
Thanks for the video helpful for me I’ve experienced that double end bag reveals all your flaws
Being old and having lots of years of practicing and studying sweet science, I always learn something from your films, it says something either about me being poor at boxing or your films being great :)
