Mu Ryuk Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 Okay, so we all know that the heavy bag is (one of) the greatest invention(s) of all time. So, now to the drills. I am looking for good combinations to work on the heavy bag. This is all I have so far. Jab + Punch + Roundhouse Jab + Punch + Pull -> Knee Strike Pass Jab + Pull -> Elbow Strike + Knee Strike Jab + Punch + Hook (high) + Straight Blast (3 punches) I do twenty repititions of everything, these are just the combos, I also do single techniques. I am looking for combinations that you have found helpful and effective in your heavy bag training. Just throw it out there! I'll give pretty much anything the benefit of the doubt Tang Soo! Passion transcends pain.
battousai16 Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 i've always been a fan of jab, punch, roundhouse, roundhouse... y'know, with the same leg. i would advise, however, that you stay away from hook kicks. it's a good way to mess up your knee.

Sounds like a good combination, I'll do it. Do you bring the kicking leg all the way back, set it down in front (making it the lead leg) or not set it down at all? I meant a Hook Punch...Hook Kicks are for Point Sparring only...unless I go crazy and decide to Spinning Hook Kick someone in hard contact sparring...if you're good enough, it can be done...and I wouldn't want to be hit by a good Spinning Hook, would you? I also want to break two boards and a full beer bottle with a Spinning Hook Kick. Passion transcends pain.
Mu Ryuk Posted November 8, 2004 Author Posted November 8, 2004 Jab cross hook elbow elbow Two elbows with the same arm? Elaborate, please. Passion transcends pain.
delta1 Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 Two elbows with the same arm? Elaborate, please. Inward flows through, then return the motion with an outward. Upward, then step in and drop a downward to chest or solar plexus height. Looping inward/downward, followed by an inward. Lots of combinations with the same elbow if you don't get hung up on the strike and rechamber mentality. Freedom isn't free!
Ted T. Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 Here's an exercise I do - the compression really fuzzed it out but I think the pov gets thru. More cqc than traditional use! http://raisingcanes.net/Bag-Dancing.mov Ted TruscottThe Raising Canes Club

Beiner Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 I just lead with whichever is my lead hand, and then switch punching hands between hits
