Tweet3 Way's To Amp Up Your Heavy Bag Work
by Rob Pilger
Bored with your heavy bag work? Well, In this brief article I will discuss three ways you can up the intensity of your heavy bag training.

1. Wear Heavier Gloves.

Simply put on a pair of 16 or 18 ounce gloves... Doing this will cause your hands to drop as you fatigue, so you have to work just as hard to keep them up.

Your shoulders will burn like hell, but the improved conditioning and definition of your body will be well worth it.

* Note* If the heavier gloves impede good technique....put the lighter gloves back on.

2. Add Intervals Of Fast Punching.

This is ass kicking way to up the intensity. Simply add 15-30 second intervals of fast, hard punching to the round.

You punch at a moderate tempo for 30 seconds... Then for 15...or if you really want to be hard core... 30 second intervals.. you punch as fast and hard as you can.

Go back to 30 seconds moderate then repeat the interval punching. Try using 2 minute rounds at first. Then as your conditioning improves move up to three minute rounds...

Warning though... it's not for the faint of heart. Performing these intervals will make your heart feel like it's going to beat right out your chest.


3. Use Shorter Rest Periods Between Rounds.

Try adding 30 second rest periods between rounds of your heavy bag work. You may be thinking this doesn't sound like much but I guarantee you this will bust your ass!


So now that I have given you three options to add to your heavy bag training, get your ass in the gym and put them to use. Try adding one, or depending on your current condition, all three.
