what gets you more tired, shadow boxing or heavy bag?

[deh707]

to me, it's shadow boxing, at least for my heart/lungs.


i use 16 oz. gloves on the heavybag, throwing every punch at maxiumum speed/power. (i use the bas rutten workout cd sometimes, and he says every punch is to be at thrown at max speed/power for his workout).


after 5 rounds on the heavy bag, im a little tired, but my arms are more tired.


today i tried doing the workout for 5 rounds no gloves, shadow boxing and moving around, punching with max power (like he said again).

i'm way more tired after shadow boxing, my heart is beating much faster, but my arms are in good shape.


what gets you more tired? and does hard shadow boxing get your cardio better?

heavy bag by miles

I gotta say shadow boxing because i move around more and probably throw a lot more punches than I do on the bag.

i see... i was thinking that hitting air would be more tiring because you're not hitting anything, causing your punches to "dig in" more.

i guess i was wrong

isn't it better to be forcing yourself to get tired? (cardio-wise)

or it really wastes energy to shadow box at max speed/power?
