The absolute best way to work a heavy bag

[mconstantine]

Adding a ball or object like this to your heavy bag takes bag work to another level. It is so easy to get mindless on the heavy bag. Adding this forces you to think defense as you're hitting the bag and avoid bad habits (like not moving your head enough). You can slip to the side of the ball when it's head on, duck under it when it swings over your head, or envision it's a punch and catch it with your glove and counter. You can even use it to work angles.

I used just an old draw string, black sack stuffed with paper and it works just fine. If you ask me, every heavy bag should come with this as an "attachment" or accessory.

Do it. I am loving it. Can't wait to see if it translates into better sparring for me.
