Speed Bag?!
Question:
Speed Bag?
I hurt my knees and foot on the tread mill and bike and don't want to give up my cardio. I thought about purchasing a speed bag and wanted to know if I could get an effective workout (cardio) from the speed bag.
Answers:
You will get some what of a cardio workout with the speed bag but mostly from my use of this is that it's more for hand eye coordination. Although with some light gloves on for a little weight resistance it will get your heart rate up there. The use of a speed bag is not in hitting it hard but in keeping the rhythm going, that is in proper form. Thus the work on your hand eye cordination. You don't have to hit it hard to get this rythm going but you will be able to work your way up to a faster speed. Sorry to hear about you injuries, good luck with your excersiseing.
