Speed bag/heavy bag

Post by Sean786 »

Just a couple days ago I got a 100 pound heavy bag, speed bag, and boxing gloves, they were for dad as a birthday present.

I have been using the speed bag primarily and I like it a lot, but I just want to know if it is ok for muscles if I use the speed bag on days off from workout.

Should I do the speed/heavy bag before or after workout? Is it ok to do them on days off without hurting muscles or overdoing it?

Please help, I just dont want to do it on days off unless muscles wont get hurt and they still grow and progress.

any day really but cardio/off days is best...also use the bag as a snadbag and do squats, carry's, lunges etc with it for a great workout
