This was the most informative video I've seen on the subject. Very impressive. You can hear the true experience and in what he's saying and not just some fake broscience guy.
Thank you so much for a great and informative vid! I LOVE LOVE L O V E the speed bag! Back in '88 I was taught by a Hawaiian ex-army golden gloves boxer who just happened to walk by a small gym I helped run at Helimano military reservation in Hawaii. He was selling insurance but heard me trying like hell to hit the big black bag we had. He gave me many helpful points and in a few days I had the rhythm down pat. We had a ball swivel and could still get great control and speed. I'm retired Army now and getting on in years, but want to set something small up inside my mobile home because I know what an incredible work out and cardio the bag is, not to mention endurance and hand eye coordination. All this info will help out a great deal, thanks again!
I love the "overkill" platform construction (and look) and the sandbag idea, particularly with dampening the noise and vibration as well as providing the set up with a firmer backstop to launch the bag back. The trouble I've noticed, (even after watching several videos with this set up) is what I believe is the flex in the platform slide rods and adjustment mechanism. Considering all things, these have to be the weakest link. The added weight may even exaggerate the bounce which I observed in your another video for beginners. - Although we'd would lose the convenience of being adjustable, it would seem a more robust stationary unit like the Rouge would be the best scenario to the overkill platform and sandbag combination....... In my humble opinion
First of all bro, I want to thank you so much for all your very helpful teaching videos on the speed bag. It's helped me tremendously. I really want to thank you for the tip on the swivel attachment. I bought a Title Pro wider design swivel. It's incredible. It literally doubled my skill in speed bag work. I still have a way to go but it does help to have the right tools. Keep up the awesome work! I am subscribed to your channel, so I am looking forward to future videos from you.
Thank you for your kind words and so glad my videos have helped you with your training. Currently working on a video based on many requests on how to build a thick wooden platform for the Speed bag. I hope to finish it sometime next week. Let me know if there are any specific skills you would like to see and would do my best to make videos of them.
Sandbag on the top of my unit stopped the majority of my vibration. Works like a charm now. Thanks very much Shraims! Also, got the pro-tidal unit from your recommendation. So much better than the stock standard. Thanks again.
Legna Beats I don’t really like that model. Hate the swivel on it and I have a feeling vibration going to keep the platform Sliding down under its own weight.
Hey - Would be great to hear your thoughts on this. I ordered a Title XS speed bag a few weeks ago and ended up sending it back for a replacment because the bag was lopsided. However, the replacment that came back was exactly the same and now I am looking at more images online, it appears the Title XS bags do naturally lopside? For example the one you have in the background also clearly sticks out more on its one side? Is that a common thing as I have not experienced that with other bags - it also means the bag when it gently doesn't bounce bag straight.
Nice video well done your very patient. What is the type of wood you use on your platforms ? Do you know what wood would be the best to use on a platform ?Thank You
Thank you for your kind words. I used Oak on two of the three speed bags. Very heavy wood. On the third one I used Formica top that came with the platform from The manufacturer and added two more layers of wood to it. It was the faster and best setup. The oak isn’t as fast as I have hoped.
That was the point of the speed bag though, or I could be wrong. It took me months to learn to keep it stable. Not just speed but learning how to control the wiggle and even steer the bag. If it was easier to control, would that be negating part of the benefit? I dont know.
Hey thank you so much for the videos. Quick question, does that swivel you are talking about in your video have the two bearings in where the pin goes through for the U shape loop.? If so do you recommend a swivel that does have the three bearings?
@@AhmedShraim I am not able to post a photo on here but I can give you the link of one that has bearings on each side of the pin. www.amazon.ca/dp/B019E4TCYM/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_rszKCb69KCEW7
@@shlu1273 This swivel is classical pro swivel. It is great and I highly recommend it but the one i like the most is the new one by Title which is much faster and called the lighting speed swivel www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.titleboxing.com%2Fmedia%2Fcatalog%2Fproduct%2Fcache%2Fd73a5018306142840707bd616a4ef293%2Fx%2Fl%2Fxlsps_1-rotated.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.titleboxing.com%2Fpunching-bags%2Fspeed-bags%2Fspeed-bag-swivels&docid=JtbUXApLNEjNiM&tbnid=S1IP69Zf-VxquM%3A&vet=10ahUKEwip6_OS6JDhAhVim-AKHe_1AH4QMwjiASghMCE..i&w=300&h=300&bih=658&biw=1437&q=lighting%20speed%20swivel&ved=0ahUKEwip6_OS6JDhAhVim-AKHe_1AH4QMwjiASghMCE&iact=mrc&uact=8
what about apartments with dry walls? white ones. is that safe to put up with one of those wall speed bag setups..? i was gonna see about getting the doorway one but that is like 200 which i dont know why. its expensive. should just be like 60 bucks if you ask me.
Well I am afraid those things need to be installed on studs to be secure. A dry wall won't be able to handle the weight. Also these things make a lot of noise and vibration, not sure how your neighbors would like that.
You can find it on titleboxing.com I have one myself and I love it. I had it for 6 years now and still in excellent condition. But like he said in the video you have to break it in when u 1st get it
Great video. I was wondering if you knew the exact model of the speed bag you’re using. Does it last long? I’ve had issues with the bladder deflating since I use it a lot. Also, do you recommend the Valor speed bag platform that looks like the third platform in this video? The 2 inch thick platform. I was thinking between the Valor or the Everlast adjustable platform. Let me know. Thanks!
I am afraid I haven't found a speed bag yet with a bladder that would NOT deflate. Sadly, I have to change those bladders from time to time. Sometimes they hold longer and sometimes they don't. It is a hit and a miss due to the cheap prices of the bladders and the low quality. The bags I like are made by Title. The ones in my video www.titleboxing.com/punching-bags/speed-bags/title-boxing-super-speed-bags And www.titleboxing.com/punching-bags/speed-bags/title-lightning-fast-speed-bag Also i prefer the Valor platform because I have had three of them for over 12 years and they are still going strong with no problems.
@@AhmedShraim I really appreciate your quick reply and sending the links of the products. Any big difference between the two speed bags? I know in the video you expressed how much those that train in your gym enjoy using the yellow speed bag. Personally, I’m looking for the smallest most challenging bag. I’ve been training since I was young, so any insight into differences between the two would be helpful. Thank you!
Hey man - do you have any advice at all. I bought a title extra small speed bag and rather than is being a perfect tear drop shape, it’s slightly misaligned to one side (lopsided) so when you hit it, gently it can angle off to the side due to it being misshaped 🤔 - is that a common issue?
Thank you a million for the super informative videos, question for you, I am curious if the mustard color is a personal preference or a necessity, in the link you referenced mustard is sold out but other colors are available in the 5 X 8 would that be the same?
Thank you for your kind words. That type of speed is made so each size have a different color I think to make it easy to recognize. If you are very new to the speed bag I would advice the one size bigger which is the red one. It is a tiny bit bigger but could be very fast.
Appreciate the reply! They might’ve done a change, cause now all colors come in the 5 x 8 A little over a year and a half now into boxing, and ready to get serious with my speed, your videos are super inspirational! Thank you again coach
@@rweenasamara3707 Fantastic plan. Speed is the secret to better boxing always. I just checked their website (Titleboxing.com) and those bags are still available! what site did you go to?
I used the link under the video: www.titleboxing.com/punching-bags/speed-bags/title-leather-super-fast-speed-bag If you click on the yellow color, it says get back in stock notifications and doesn’t allow you to add to cart
Not sure which site you are looking at but on the one I just checked there is no mention of Xs. The sizing they have are L,M, Small and Mini. However 5x8 is my prefered size and what we use at the gym.
I used oak for the thick platform but kept the original piece that came with it. Because the original piece is covered with a layer of formica which is smooth and helps the bag repound faster
Great video. Very helpful. Can't believe still vibrated with 3 inch platform..Does the metal mechanism tighten up solid? Cleto Reyes are best bags... THANKS

If you master the speed bag using that cheap plastic swivel at 6:43 a decent metal swivel will be a piece of cake.

Have you tried the new title swivel you mentioned? Big difference or no?

Hi, what do u call those bags that have the sand in them? Thanks I have learned alot from your videos
Anchor bag. You can find them at Everlast.com

hello i got a heavy bag stand and speed bag, but it only bounces twice n loses momentum.. what can I do ..
Get a different speed bag.
Youre losing force due to vibration in the stand.. put a 25lb bag of sand on top of your plate.
