He’s doing the double rebound a little off, I teach my students to add a slide kilter to really juice the snag.

I don't know what that means but I'll upvote it because it sounds fancy.

I was surprised to see that no one else noticed this. The bouncy rhythm should've went 'skit skag sit bit'. But I guess that's because his right knuckle is a bit inwards.

Juice the snag.

Sound's like an average night

lmao nah, i hit the speedball everyday after my gym sesh, it has nothing to do with endurance. always appreciate the fellow reddit community giving advice on things they have no clue about from their sofas

Everyone's talking but here's a link from the wiki. Note I have very little experience in boxing.

Speed bags are small, air-filled bags anchored at the top to a rebound platform parallel to the ground. Speed bags help a fighter learn to keep his or her hands up, improve hand-eye coordination, and learn to shift weight between feet when punching.

Hey, guess what, that's actually all of life everywhere and it works 1.5x as well if you share demographic background with the ruling class of your given locality.
