Hey everyone! Quick question for the experts out there—can anyone point me toward some good reading material or studies on training explosiveness for kids in the 5 to 10 age range? We're working with little fighters in combat sports, you know? Trying to get that power dialed in early without overdoing it. Any book recs or coaching guides would be huge! Thanks a million!
Ugh, seriously, how do I make this Astra ad go away?! It’s driving me absolutely insane!
Hey Engine25, I’ve been rocking a freestanding bag myself and honestly? I’m loving it. But man, I ran into two little hiccups along the way. First off—total rookie move—I actually filled mine with water instead of sand, so every time I threw a heavy side kick, the whole thing would just slide all over the floor. Total mess, right? Second issue is the striking surface itself... it starts getting thin right around waist height, which makes training those low kicks, you know, knees or thighs, pretty much impossible. Personally, I think it’s totally worth dropping a few extra bucks to grab one with a longer striking area, unless you're strictly a boxer or something.
Hey everyone! Quick question—does anyone know if there are any good heavy bags for sale around here? Or better yet, does anybody happen to have a freestanding one lying around? Ideally, I’m looking for something sturdy enough to really hammer some low kicks into. Any leads?
