looking for a cardio workout using a heavy bag...

[jerkbox]

all you boxers out there, I am looking for a good cardio workout where I can pound on a heavy bag....

maybe some kind of intense interval thing....

I could bang on a heavy bag for a half hour, but I am looking for specific things like do this 30 times then this 30 times...etc. etc.



any good routines?

Not sure if you have the equipment but I like to do fast and quick work on a double end striking bag for 10 minutes then serious heavy bag work for like 5 minutes and then back to the double end striking bag and so on. The double end striking bag has to be the most fun I could ever have.

Boxing feels so natural and when I'm doing it I'm just so into the moment.

Get a timer clock. I keep a list of combos on my wall. I'll work in 2 minute rounds some nights. 3 minute rounds some nights. And some night speed drill rounds.

Boxing is the most fun workout there is.

I work the heavy bag with 3-minute rounds. 3-minutes on/1-minute of rest. Typical boxing rounds.

I train in a boxing gym, so there is a boxing timer on at all times. This is exactly what I do too when jumping rope.

Do whatever feels cool for you bro. 1 min/1 min.....2 min/1 min..... all the way up to 4 minutes and down to 30 second rest ints.

Mix it up. Flow lightly and easily one int....then explode on the next. You could have 3 minute easy work/ 1 minute rest...then 1-2 minutes intense work/1 minute rest. Toss some kicks in, throw an elbow now and then, slip, move, knee, a headbutt....make it fun and its not as tough

btw, I love doing headbutts....

I haven't been in a fight in a long time, but I always think if I am in one, I'm gonna headbutt some mofo.
