Drills:

The bag should be at a static position before you strike on it. This focuses you to time your distance and movement wisely. Your concentration should be basically on strike count, the first one.

The most common mistake done is that the person starts moving before the bag. The correct way is to start all the rigorous movements of hands and legs after the first strike count.

During the movement of the bag, you should remain static. The only thing which is to be remembered is to make the first strike count.

Your move on the bag should be like your move on the opponent. The attack should be like as if it is on your adversary and not the bag.

Tips:

· It is advisable for beginners to hit the bag with both the gloves and the wrap on to avoid injury of any kind, be it in the skin or on the bone.

· You should know when the right time is to hit the bag is. For example- If you hit the bag when it’s coming towards you, it will improve your resistance and power.

· When you’re using a heavy bag, its weight should be appropriate i.e. it should at least be half your body weight
