Well, it's
Out with the old…
A punch drumming video from the first of this year. It was a rare sunny day in January in the Pacific Northwest. The sunshine inspired me to punch to this upbeat gospel-style song by the Allman Brothers:
"Revival"
by the Allman Brothers…
and it's
…in with the new.
Some new punches and combos...
I taped this last weekend, at the end of a long day of Life. This song (and the melody of the bag) melted my troubles away.
This is strictly an evening practice session that I happened to record – hence the erratic punching. I'm trying out some triple elbow downward strikes (is that what they're called?), outward elbow punches, shadow punches, (my version of) side punches, etc. I hope to increase the complexity of my punch drumming videos.
I have Roc Stone to thank for suggesting I "step it up" to another level. Roc, you made me push the envelope… I'm beginning to do punches that for some reason I thought I couldn't do. Well, maybe I do them in my own fashion, but, hey, as long as they look good to me, right?
I love the workout, but I think I love the artistic quality of speed bagging. That beat. I can't get enough of it. I'm glad it's not a BAD thing to be addicted to!
"Southbound" by the Allman Brothers...
I had a lot of things going on in March. But, I tried very hard to make time for my workouts. They have been my salvation of late.
Anyway, I've been working hard this past month, practicing new punches and combinations. This is a progress report!
