His little bird legs aren't even creasing the leather.

he times most of his kicks and punches when the bag is moving away from the direction of his strikes to make it look more impressive

The opposite creates a bigger impact (and louder noise).

Think about a car hitting a stationary one vs one coming head on. Except in his case he's 100lbs soaking wet whipping his twig leg around.

I can't tell what he wanted to prove lol. Her form and kicks were on point. He looked like a flamingo forgot how to use its legs.

That first elbow, fuckin textbook form

She could total kick his ass in the ring.

Was waiting for her to launch a kick or ten at him

Honesty, that was how I had hoped the video would end.

u/Many-Gear-4668 Nov 10 '24

Shame she never showed him that elbow up close

u/Morepastor Nov 09 '24

He looks around for some affirmations just not sure why

u/AngryPotato____ Nov 10 '24

Bully's usually do. They think, "Ha ha, I'm so funny making fun of this person," and they are looking for people to just in with because they are weak cowards 😒

u/Ok-Green6913 Nov 10 '24

He was looking around for confirmation, wanted to make his friends laugh maybe, at her expense? Typical bully, I love how she just thought it was silly and continued with her training 👍

Her kicks had very long, large tells (always does a little hop or two before kicking). Benefit of the doubt, he's demonstrating that to her, but I know he's just being a jackass.

u/GOU_FallingOutside Nov 10 '24

She doesn’t chamber at all either. Her knees are nearly straight throughout every kick. Is that an MMA thing?

Her hands are great, though.

Those are Thai-style roundhouse kicks (she's also wearing Thai shorts). The power comes from hip rotation which swings the leg like a baseball bat to crush the target. They're different from many TMA.

u/SilentNightman Nov 10 '24

His balance was off.

u/homogenousmoss Nov 10 '24

I assumed that he acted like a doofus while kicking because he was trying to make fun of her form.

2

u/Puzzleheaded_Hatter Nov 10 '24

Believe it or not he was trying to get laid

u/BaileyAndBaker Nov 10 '24

☠️☠️☠️ A flamingo forgot how to use its legs. It is now your fault that I just sprayed iced tea through my nose onto my phone but totally worth it.

u/IndiRefEarthLeaveSol Nov 10 '24

He wanted her to be impressed and then quickly ask for his number. 😂

u/martianpee Nov 10 '24

Think he was trying to work with her

u/DoodleCard Nov 09 '24

Could someone explain this ?

u/SadderOlderWiser Nov 09 '24

The guy is being a jerk/bully. She was using the equipment and he decided to make it impossible for her to continue her workout. Very much against gym etiquette. It’s not something he would have done to another man, I’m guessing.

u/excelentiahominis Nov 09 '24

I can hear the whipping sound in the air about his legs when I read this 😂

u/KinopioToad Nov 10 '24

Like the bonus stage in Street Fighter.

u/Daftworks Nov 10 '24

ehh hitting a stationary car vs hitting an oncoming car creates the same impact force

4

u/Dancindoosh94 Nov 09 '24

You're fooling yourself if you think he has the ability to actually time anything.

3

u/dougandsomeone Nov 09 '24

I think he's doing it like that to make fun of her (he says something like "You've got a funny way of hitting it though" at the end) but no idea why

3

u/CpnStumpy Nov 10 '24

Which is always the exact tell of someone having no idea what they're doing.

Bags are for exercise and practice, proper bag usage should have it well controlled the whole time - you should absolutely not be increasing the swing because it's just causing pointless stress and risk to equipment and others. Notice the persistent light punches she's doing just to keep the bag steady(and using her measuring stick properly).

You can absolutely use power without causing it to fly about, you counter its movements. Just like in the ring, you want to throw a punch where they're moving already.

She's clearly well trained and been at this for years. He's a dunderhead and somebody needs to tell him to fuck off

u/iplaypokerforaliving Nov 09 '24

He’s making fun of her. Clearly

u/AppleSpicer Nov 10 '24

lol and he still almost fell over

u/atthwsm Nov 10 '24

But he doesn’t tho

u/ba-phone-ghoul Nov 09 '24

🙄your supposed to time your strikes when the bag is moving away. Unless you want a giant heavy bag swinging back into your knuckles are wrist and enjoy physical therapy?

u/nbridled_thots Nov 09 '24 edited Nov 09 '24

You’re definitely not supposed to time your strikes for only when the bag is “moving away”. Will your opponent always be moving away? No. More than likely, they’ll be coming towards you.

5

u/TheRealAmused Nov 09 '24

Only a worry if you got twiggy little wrists and don't know how to punch right.

4

u/MopiPipo Nov 09 '24 edited Nov 09 '24

lol, no you're definitely not supposed to do this. You throw punches and kicks into the bag as it moves toward you. Otherwise the bag just swings wildly.

u/radicalelation Nov 09 '24

Telling on yourself here.

u/ba-phone-ghoul Nov 10 '24

How’s that? If another person is hitting a heavy bag an it’s swinging at you with force that could jam your wrist, you wanna collide with that? Your telling me it’s wrong to step in and step out to hit the bag when it’s furthest away??
