Thanks for a great video. You emptied my cup for sure. I might add IF you practice 10-15 minutes a day it helps to "Practice with a Purpose". Have a lesson plan for that time, as well as (hopefully) some knowledgeable instruction, or oversight occasionally by a knowledgeable teacher, lest you practice "bad form, bad movement," over and over day after day. Just my two cents. It is very hard to know if you form and movement is correct on your own. Loved your advice to keep the elbows up. True, especially when passing fist through front to back to front. Much easier with a parallel arm and belly of bag set correctly. I think of a cup of coffee resting mid point between my shoulder and arm...don't spill the coffee. Great video and insights! #KeepPunching!

Ramsey, I know I am late to the party but I just discovered this video s little while ago and it was a game changer for me. Your advice on limiting the time on the speed bag and “sleeping on it”, as it were, was spot on and made a huge difference in my progress. I am now a fan of your channel because of this video and other great content.

Thank you for this video! I’ve said this to you before but I have to say it again, your grace and timing with this piece of equipment is nothing short of beautiful. Your movements really do put the ‘Art’ in Martial Arts. Keep up the great work!

Little late to the game but I just made myself a speed bag mount and bought a bag, been using it for a few days now and this is by far the best tutorial I've seen on YT for it. Thanks for sharing more of the wealth of knowledge you have. Ive learned alot from you and I'm still learning from you. Love this channel.

The best and most complete video for the speedbag on the internet! Half of these i didn't even know you could do. As I am training boxing and everything that involves improving the boxing technique, the number 9 is definitely most useful. If your feet don't move, the fastest hands won't help you.

Great tips, coach! I'll be adding a speedbag to my Christmas wish list now

Thanks fantastic video one ov best iv seen explain it brilliantly

Well edited, real informative!

Thank you Mr. Dewey, very educational. Thank you so much, your a very good teacher.

I have my own way of hitting the speed bag: i basically "link" my hands and feet together, meaning if I hit it with my left hand, i tap on my left foot, right hand, right foot, same mechanics when throwing a punch. Also i put the hand thats not hitting the bag near my cheek, similar to how I would in a real fight. In the last 10 seconds of the timer, i jog in place while hitting the bag to increase intensity. I also incorporate head movement here and there. Or sometimes, I just shadowbox with the speedbag as my target. Its a great tool, it just takes creativity to use

You can easily apply this to learning instruments! I practice certain bass licks for 5 minutes a day and I'm getting better at it over night thinking about what I do wrong and how I can fix it. My fingers then usually move and shadow what I do on the fretboard. Thanks for the video! I do BJJ so I don't use the speed bag. But the theory behind it is still very interesting!

The man is the Truth. Thank you, Ramsey.

This is dope i never thought of trapping before

Learned a lot, very awesome explanation.

This was great, I wanted to find out more techniques for using the speed bag as I want to get more use out of it. Plus I want to use it in relation to the type of style of training I look to achieve.

This is gold Thank you

Perfect!!! just bought a Speedbag last week :D

Thank you, learned a lot.

I can do the frame/ block and the falling step my speed bags kinda a cruddy homemade one and they're honestly the only ones that my feedback lets me do . Plan on getting a new speed bag for Christmas though going to learn some new stuff for it

This is so dope- thank you for this

This is awesome thank you

Pretty awesome 😎. Thank u my brother 💯!

Yea, very good video. I am subscribed now. Thank you

It's very great coach very excellent footwork speed our timing coordination reflexes very awesome

After searching through youtube this is the speed bag video I knew I was looking for thanks! I was literally just watching paquiaos video and thinking why is no one talking about footwork! its fundamental!

This is crazy. I never even knew there could be so that many ways of the speed bag. I'm really only familiar with the frame/punch(#8), maybe drumroll#3, didn't know that was even a real method), and the falling step(#9). I've probably seen the punch/block(#1) and thought it was the same as #8. I remember seeing one of my instructors do a combo on the speed bag that was cool. But I was still to novicy to try it. I was getting better at #8 for a little while. Was working on it and it definitely helped my other areas. Like the arm rotator for cardio(arm bike, idk what it's really called). That definitely helped, plus the speed bag, made everything better. But the gym I'm at now doesn't have a speed bag. Now I'm bumming cuz I cant work on one now.

GREAT video!

Maaannn what a cool Video with many insights for me of my mistakes I Made After reading Benny Urquidez book king of the ring where he also demonstrated some techniques. I Think I have to Go to the cellar and get my speedbag Back on the wall. Thanks for your inspiration, Mr Dewey!

Thanks for all your info

Great stuff! Thanks.

This is the most difficult thing I have ever tried to do in the martial arts and boxing!!

Great skills, Ramsey!! I think there is one other that you can do, probably easily, with what you already do. That's a forward elbow and back elbow with one side followed by the same with the other arm. Same rhythm as the punch followed by the back knuckle then the other side, etc.

Thanks a lot for this!

ok, as always, super cool video, but this one was more than that... all your explanations make a lot of sense, and I don't get why it is not more common in gyms to work on the speed bag, and why no one explains to you how important it can be. definitely my next acquisition ^^

That's fantastic shoulder rotor cuff exercise. Even if you don't do martial arts, the speed bag can improve general sports skills.

Your method reminds me of how I trained my power punch as a teenager. I trained on the heavy bag gor 15 minutes every day just working on one or two good punches at a time rather than trying to pummel it as a cardio workout. Trying to make every punch good quality. It really worked, I was out punching my older brother, also a kickboxer despite him having 40lbs on me

He really didn't have to have to add music over this the satisfying notice of the speedball is enough, and also this is like my 5th time watching this it's the skill level is insane

Again, great video. Could you comment on bag height. What if the bag is a 30cm lower or higher? A 1.5m tall person and a 2m tall person training on the same bag height might help one and create bad form on the other. Conversely is it better to train on speed bags with different heights or consistently on a fixed height bag? I found wear on my shoulders at too low or high speed bags. Love to hear your thought. Thanks.

Thank you for this video... I'm just beginning to get into the speed bag and was going to ask you about it after seeing you use it in so many of your videos.. You have said in another video that it also helps with power... In what way? You have pretty much answered most of my question with this video, so thanks again. Just one last question... You explained the specific reasons behind the block punch drill... are there different particular reasons behind the other drills or are the reasons for them pretty much the same as the block punch one ? Thanks. 🙂👍

Each of those patterns represents a different technique. The speed bag develops power by stimulating the fast twitch muscles from the elbow down to the hand. It’s the last extremity of the punch we’re training in massive numbers when we use the speedbag. Even if you never use any of the practical fighting applications of the patterns, if power development is all you get out of speed bag training then it’s well worth it. After watching Marcos Maidana work out, I made it a point to develop my power to the point that I could break a speed bag with each training session. After breaking 12 of them, it started getting expensive, so I stated focusing more on technique. But yeah, correct speedbag training will add that extra POP to your punches you didn’t even know you were missing.

Great videos man, i just now came across them, they're very helpful, i have a question i want to ask you thought i figured you can help me out somewhat, im 21 years old and ive boxed on and off since 17 and did well, ive recently made my way back into training and wanting to compete again to make a pro debut and see how things turn out but heres where my question comes in, i suffered a slight tear in my left shoulder after a hook landed wrong, since then my arm gets fatigued and my shoulder blade feels a little weaker sometimes when i throw my jab alot or when i throw hooks alot, surgery isnt an option rn dont have the money for it, and this is what im truly passionate about, my main punches are my 1 2 and im not a crazy output fighter more of a boxer puncher but as of the past couple years ive enjoyed watching glory kickboxing guys such as massaro glunder etc have drawn my attention, im jw what can i do to continue to make sure my shoulder isnt a problem and what would it be less stress on it if i decided to compete in other martial arts such as mma muay thai etc any feedback helps thanks

You have to rehab injuries like that with strength training to build up the muscles around the injury to better support the joint. Start small and build up from there over time.

I'm actually starting to notice a difference in my cross after working the falling step on the speed bag; I just started doing it in class last night without even thinking about it.

I get the feeling I'm gonna be watching this more than once I don't box but these hand fighting techniques look very similar to movements I use when sparring with boffer swords framing and deflecting are both used a lot with weapons as well, Its funny how much translates between different types of fighting

Sleep to sleep philosophy is an interesting concept. I suspect that was why a friend of mine liked juggling before going to bed.

Hey Ramsey, I'm a boxer and I've been watching you for a while, do you think that a speed bag like this would be useful to train in pure boxing with no mma elbows or back/side fist punches/blocks? If so how useful do you think it is?

Yep. I’m making a whole series of videos about the speed bag and double end bag. For boxing, besides the round elbow, there’s a practical use for all of these movements. And even if you never use those specific techniques, the speedbag is one of the most underrated developers of punching power when used correctly. If you haven’t already check out this old video of Marcos Maidana’s coach complaining about how Maidana keeps popping all the speedbag sin his gym because he hits so dang hard: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hISFtrd7cryaoM4.html
