My last marriage was "uncomfortable" so I am already trained for such things.
Come to think of it, not being able to move my head would be less "uncomfortable" than being with my ex. :D

I dont know so much about boxing but I always thought speed bag was for speed, the heavy bag for power and conditioning and well the wooden dummy is not a punching bag at all. If one wants to punch at a tennis ball thats fine but I think a better tennis ball for conditioning IMO would be juggling or the drill NFL players where they throw tennis balls at a wall ( or someone throws at them )and catch with both hands.
Just as bad/good as a speed bag I guess...
Yeah, OK, but none of them move around like an opponent.Quote:

And the dummy isn't a bag? Jeez, thanks for pointing that out. (Secret: a tennis ball isn't a bag either).
The tennis ball is just another training idea, not a philosophy of life or religious artifact. If you like it, use it. If you don't, use something else.
There's a vid of Anderson Silva on Yt doing stuff like that.Quote:

I've seen quite a few people replace the FCB with a tennis ball an use it the same way. Thoughts?
