Did some more reviews, and found out I needed wrist wraps on my hands under my gloves. Than after going to some random boxing forums found out their actually is a method to the madness, and that you have to learn proper form and punching technique. Searched around for heavy bag drills and came across this DVD. Ordered it and wa-la got it in about 4 days.
Popped it in and wow, I was amazed at how many things I was doing wrong.
This DVD is great for someone just learning boxing from scratch that would like to get a good workout by hitting a heavy bag. Now it is also one of the lowest budget boring DVD''s you have ever sat eyes on. That said, it still gives you exactly what you need. You honestly only need to watch this dvd 2-3 times and you will pick up the technique.
So my advice is get an instructor for a couple of weeks to teach you the basics. If you can''t afford an instructor, this is the next best thing.This video only about 9 bucks. No big deal, right? Right. But, even for a retard beginner that doesn''t know how to use YouTube, it''s only marginally decent. Otherwise, it''s just a waste of time. Sorry, TITLE, I love your other products, but this one falls short. What could have made this dvd better is if they made it longer with more content about the basics. They should have FULL segments on preparation, the punches, the purpose of the heavy bag, a brief history of the bag, the types/weights, the importance of it, footwork, etc, etc. It literally seemed like 8 mins of content. What you really need it this Boxer''s Start-Up: A Beginner''s Guide to Boxing (Start-Up Sports series) for the basics. I''m not saying that other TITLE videos are bad, but this one is.
