I was working on the speed bag just as I normally have for quite some time and it seemed like I could do no wrong. Something clicked, I don't know what, and I realized that I was linking with ease.
I've been able to do all the techniques in the speed bag bible for quite some time, but I've been frustrated with linking them seamlessly and effortlessly. I don't know how to describe it, but it just came to me all of a sudden and I'm linking fluidly from one technique to another. My speed even increased dramatically! Before Saturday afternoon, I usually had to wait for a rebound or two OR go back to the home rhythym before linking to my next technique. Not any more!
This all happened on Saturday and when I worked out again yesterday afternoon when all the weekend chores were done, I again worked out longer and with more intensity than I have for a long time.
After having such successful workouts, I decided to watch DVD 2 and 3 of Alan's series. The instructions make so much more sense now that I can pull them off! This weekend marked a great improvement in my speed bagging!
I don't know what it was, but it's really cool and satisfying when stuff comes together like this.
Just hang in there, if you're like me, it sometimes takes longer than sooner before you get to the level you want. I didn't think I'd ever be able to do what Alan does, but now I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and I really don't think it's going to be that long before I can get my speed up to Alan's level.
