As for BOB, I find him to be awesome for practicing strikes. It really makes a difference to learn how to hit an actual face rather than just hitting a punching bag, plus you can practice chokes, eye gouges, pressure point strikes etc.
Its great for indoors or outdoors, although if you are planning on using one outside I would put him on a matt or something, the base can get deep scratches gouged in it pretty quickly if he is on concrete or similar.
In the video I don't quite have enough water in the base so he is moving around a bit too much, I like him to move a bit but not as much as he did tonight.
It was a great warm up for my HFS light stretches today.

I don't know how tall you are, but it looks like BOB is a little too high.
ReplyDeleteI'm 5'11.
ReplyDeleteYeah the available settings make him either a little too high, or a little to short..
So I feel kinda guilty beating him up when he is shorter than me and usually have him at this height but I do mix it up every now and again.
