Corporal Hicks
Black Belt
Through setting up a training program for myself during the week I came across the problem of not having a training partner therefore the use of a punchbag has become of a great reliance to me.
Would using self defence techniques consist of elbow strikes, blocking and general punches and kicks,using combinations against the bag? and using it to technically fight against. Being more interested in RBSD than anything has anybody got any good workouts that they use against the bag or is it the simple case of applying already learned knowledge to the bag and making it as 'real' as possible?
Regards
To give an example this is what I meant, not put in blocking techniques though!:
Monday, Wednesday and Friday (Hands emphasis)
Shadow kick-boxing, practicing footwork, nice and easy nothing specific, just moving the limbs nice and light, stepping JKD style – 3 Minutes
Moving onto: Single techniques: 50 Reps each arm – Jab, Cross Hook- 5 Minutes
1-Minute Rest
Combination punching for self-defence: Two Minutes per drill, 3 drills maximum per workout
Single and Double Jabs and straight blasts
Right jab, left cross, right jab
Left Jab, right cross, left jab
Right jab to left cross to right hook
Left Jab to right cross to left hook
Right jab to right hook
Left Jab to left hook
First learning above then applying below
Using footwork, moving around,
1 minute backing away or sidestepping (Defence)
1 minute following through (Attack, really going for it, laying into bag)
------------------------
This being simply an example, I have not included things like elbow strikes or stretching, would anybody regard this to be a sufficient workout?
