    A friend of mine who studied MT is now studying TKD with me. The last time we sparred my instructor said that he is at a brown belt level in sparring (with his hands). I could hang with him because I have better kicks than he does(we do not kick below the belt for right now),but I need some hand work. What are somthings that I can do on my own that will help. I have a heavy bag, speed bag, and headache bag. Right now I just punch them with no format. Is their any drills or combos that helped you improve you hands as far as speed and power defensivly and offensivly? :bang:

    shadow boxing can help a great deal.why don't you ask your friend to help you with your hands.

    My friend still works with his sifu (pardon the spelling if wrong) from time to time and I have not been invited, and we have a silent comp going between the two of us. Thanks on the shadow boxing tip I will spend more time on it.
