30 AUG: Heavy bag
I was tired, but bored, so I decided to work the heavy bag again. The basic rule I always follow is a slow warm-up, then work on crisp clean form. Once my form is spot on, I gradually pick up the pace. After a few rounds of fast paced work with crisp form, I work on power. Normally I end with a conditioning drill, but i was too tired today. 8 rounds (3 min work, 1 min rest) Rnd1: Straight punches while circling the bag Rnd2: Lead kicks and round kicks while circling the bag Rnds 3, 4, 5: All forms of punches with emphasis on head movement (ducking, slipping, rolling) Rnd6: Power kicking drills (lead, rear, side kicks, back kicks,). Reset at each kick and focus on speed and power Rnd7: Power punching drills (mostly hooks) Rnd8: punch-kick combos
