What are the benefits of sandbag punching?

1. Improve your body’s strength

Regularly hitting the sandbag can train the muscle tissue and develop the ability to adapt when subjected to a certain recoil force. After hitting the target, the muscles will feel the friction resistance of the sandbag, and the reaction force will be sent to the body and cause pain. Continuous hitting of the sandbag will increase the body's strength and compressive strength, so that the body can pass the energy more completely through the whole line after hitting the target. Through sandbag training, the neck, arms, chest, back, waist and calves can be well trained and developed. Therefore, sandbag training is mainly to train the upper part of the strength and explosiveness.

2. Create a more perfect body shape

In the process of repeatedly hitting the sandbag, the abdomen, waist and buttocks are constantly exercising, which can fully burn unnecessary body fat, strengthen muscles, sculpt the lines of muscles in various parts of the body, and make the shape more extreme. When girls build their body shape by hitting the sandbag, if they don't want their muscles to be too developed, they should do relaxation exercises after training.

4. Improve physical flexibility

According to the theory that hitting the sandbag can train the body's coordination, after each punch, the sandbag will twist around. If you want to grasp the best point, you need to grasp the best opportunity and position to punch, and you also need to dodge when the sandbag swings to the current situation.
