shots all around the heavy bag instead of one place and single shot. Try to vary your combinations as possible as you can. In this
way, you will learn your stamina and technique in every place. You are not
utilizing your energy completely when you are in one place. By moving, and
punching shots back on the heavy bag enhances your stamina. In this drill, you are channelizing your energy in various directions by moving all around the heavy bag.

hand speed. In this drill, you have to punch on heavy bags at an interval of 15
seconds. This interval gives you time to relax and punch back with more speed and energy.

However, when you devleop your hand speed automatically your muscles will contract and relax.
