    Just tried the speed bag for the first time today...

    That **** is hard...

    went on it for about 30min and while I slowly worked my way into some rhythm, they were just in like 2-6 sec spurts...but I will be on it everytime I go to the gym (NYSC)for practice...I think I think too much when doing it...things seem to flow better when I just let my hands go and try to hear and feel the rhythm rather than watching the bag...

    it was fun trying to figure it out though...that is what I like most about boxing..trying to figure out your opponent...in this case...a bag

    yeah speed bags are much more difficult than they look on on TV...start with a heavier rubber bag, just to learn the technique, before trying out a lighter leather-covered bag, it helped me quite a bit
