String length is important. When i was punching the ball the knot untied itself and the elastic gave a real good smack to my face 😂😂😂
How loung should it be?
@@andrejjovanovic6033 From your shoulder to your clenched fist.
@@subyk6046 thank you. Been experimenting with hand lengths I just got mine
Its not easy but im.loving how it helps to improve hand eye coordinations and reflexes. Especially when it comes to moving out of the way of a punch or kick
Better late than never. Just bought one and on the box it says the elastic under tension should place the ball around crotch area. Guess it depends on the elastic/ball.
If you got you reflex ball made it's time to learn how to start using it. Once you get down the basics have fun adding some tricks into your arsenal.
What length should it be???
@@lrwhiteley about arm length
@@lrwhiteley I got details in the how to make a reflex ball video which can out yesterday but quickly:
about arm length. You can shorten after if you find it too long.
Thank you much for this idea. I made a modified version for anyone struggling with the headband version like I am. I have a couple videos up on my channel using a similar concept. I wanted to start with my timing and work my way up...... Eventually I want to get up to speed with the headband version. Thanks again!
Ye
I've been using reflex balls for about two years now quite frequently, i feel like it really helps the footwork and makes it easy to practice moving and punching at the same time :)
For sure. That means you're getting good at it.
Too many people I see using them don't implement much footwork.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial are reflex balls better than speed bags? i already have a double end bag mum asking what i want for my birthday
Do you think its a good way of improving dodge reflexes?
@@lucashenriques4242 not really, for me the thing that really boost my dodge reflexes is watching this daily: czcams.com/video/xCBuVrqDVxk/video.html
It really motivates me to not be a sandbag xD
@@Armilar255 Yeah...that'll do it lol
Man I have just realised that when I sit down to watch one of your videos, 2 hours pass by and I am still learning and continuing to watch! I am enjoying your channel and your teaching! Thank you!
That is awesome.
I'm happy to hear the content is helping.
Thanks for supporting the channel 🙏🙏🙏
I flinch a lot during sparring and I way I’ve tried to combat this is throwing the ball straight and blocking or slipping it while keeping eyes focused. A more advanced step might be parrying/countering as it comes back towards me. Hopefully this helps someone. Thank you for the awesome videos! 🤙
This is what I'm struggling with the flinching I'm on day 2 of this wanted to start this before I started bpxing
1:45 start
5:15 uppercut. Give it a month to get used to
6:35 catch the ball
7:00 turn sideways to dodge
Thanks man
@@undeadredemption_ you will be muhammed ali after a couple of months of doing this
@@your_sister_is_a_femalefor sure. I haven't lost a fight since I got mine
I purchased one a few days ago. I been using it everyday. Take your time at the beginning. Don’t get discouraged, in a few days you will get the hang of it. Love it!!
I'm glad you are enjoying it.
I was getting upset in the first week. Then it started to click and you start to love it.
Thank you for this tutorial. Most of the other vids based on this don’t show you how to exactly get started from the beginning. But you did a great job on that and therefore I’m 👍🏼 and subbing
It also helps reducing the flinching from incoming punches, great tool
Wow, ty... so simple, and complex at once.
Can I just say thank you. Thank you. 💕 I saw this on another video and went down the rabbit hole of watching videos. I'm older and have a ulnar nerve injury in my arm. This was a perfect explanation and demo of how to get started. This will be perfect to build some strength in my arm that doesn't require me gripping anything.
Have a happy and blessed 2023💕
I walk down the street doing this lol.A great tool the thai's used to do this because they had a hard time affording. Equipment i like to tie it to the ceiling and hit it.you will learn to block,head movement,hand and i coordation and learn how to put your knucks into your punchs it works great.
bro can u tell in detail how you made that equipment
Thanks for all of the knowledge you share!
great lessons,just got mine and it was beating me up and down,,,,thanks
Very helpful video I would say best one out there for people trying to learn this excercise thank you
Another fun and easy way to excerise. Good to switch from one workout to another, I'd become a bit stagnant and this breathes some new life into the routine.
Bought one of these yesterday it arrived today. Was alternating hands with the ball down low but I need to remember to stand in the proper stance… good content
This looks fun. Thank you, Gabriel!
Thats a Lot of fun, once you get a little better and manage to hit it a couple Times in a row
Yeah! This is what I wanted to see after the DIY
Thank you for this instruction!
Just stumbled on your page, as I recently picked up a reflex ball. I'm a jiu-jitsu guy, so I'm trying to learn striking. Your page will definitely help.
Gabriel, Thank You none of the gyms I go to have a speed bag so this is a good alternative.
This was great! Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video and info.Love your style.Thank you.
Really appreciated that tutorial. Especially the part where you explain how long it will take to master this. Thanks heaps.👍🏾
Glad it was helpful!
@@GabrielVargaOfficial How long should you train with it for?
Seen your video and just ordered one on eBay !! should help an old fella like me of 58, though I still work out on the bags I don't spar, but this will help my reactions and footwork !!
Man thanks for the Tutorial. Wow great video.
Keep doing what you do!
I hobby kickboxed most of my life and still i never tried this, now when gym's are closed and I'm getting out of shape it's a perfect time to try this, I'm not good at training when it's not fun but this looks entertaining.you have a lot of good tips
Thanks. It's very low on my list of training priorities but as you said now is the perfect time.
Reflex ball, shadow boxing and following along with my at home kickboxing workouts is helping me stay sharp.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial yes I guess you have to be really good at this before it starts burning or become somewhat effective training.i wish shadow boxing was more entertaining i been thinking about using my projector and project opponents at the wall, i just wish I could remove the loser of a good match so it looks like I'm going against the winner,,,
Thanks for the tips 🥊😃
Love that thing it’s so fun
Thanks a lot i realy need it
Thank you man that was very helpfull
Super useful dude! This tennis ball is the Toughest opponent I ever fought …..
crazy how much fun this is gonna be a good week to get me started ...! make that a month ...
I’ve noticed another good advanced drill is focusing on a point in the distance and hitting the ball without looking at the ball with your centralized vision. I feel like it helped me see hits that are coming from my peripheral vision and react to them with more certainty. Also to get the rhythm down I noticed that sitting down and practicing the feel of it while watching tv is helpful, because then when adding it to training it’ll be a little more fast pace after that week-month period of getting it down.
He make it look so easy
Mad skills , respect
This seems like a good thing for fencers to use too! Training not to blink and to improve hand accuracy, reflexes and coordination
Great cardio as well once you get the legs involved!
Thanks for this! I will also get one...
Thanks brother ❤ lab u !
Thank you for this video. I just bought a reflex ball and was getting a bit frustrated with it. Your video really helped 👍🤜👍🤜
Very happy to hear it was helpful.
Have fun with the reflex ball. It's a blast once you get your skills up.
I didn't know who you are a few months ago...Know i learn everything from you😂 ♥️💪
Quickest subscription ever. Thank you young Sir!
Thanks and welcome
I wish I could sub, but agreed to be
Great video thank you for this my Nephew learned to use the reflex ball on "the full energy channel they have some good beginners tutorials on there just subbed you keep these video coming
Well explained 👍
muchas gracias buen tutorial.
Great presentation.
You are very good at that 😮
Thank you for video. All reflex balls different. Some on amazon are easier than others because of action of elastic. The most advanced one I found is title boxing’s one with smallest ball. But making your own is great if great too.
Good stuff Gabriel! Epic trophy case in the back.
I just got one of these. It went so badly that after 4 minutes Im here watching this video. Thank you for your service
Fun challenge. Gonna make one and get really good with this, thanks for the tips!
Did you do it
100% trying this.
Great tips! Appreciate it! :)
Thank you 🙏🏻
Ythat looks like a nice workout!
Good and helpful video
thank you very much it was very helpfull 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Sick
Helpful thanks man
Wow!!!! What an awesome video!!! Subscribed. Just got this on amazon and I’m loving it. However , already it’s destroyed. Now I can make my own. Also your wisdom. Thank you !!
Ive been seeing alot of people saying people just starting are just immediately missing and it takes time to get good at this just isnt the case. When i got mine i immediately got the hang of it and it became quiet fun and easy.
Yeah i litteraly got one yesterday and can already do everything
Thanks
I am going to try this but I've already bougth one so now I would make a Reflex ball myself. :-)
Great video keep it up :D
Just found your channel. Dope content! You are gonna explode.
Thanks so much.
Any video requests?
@@GabrielVargaOfficial How about more reflex ball tricks!!! There are hardly any pros out there showing off on youtube. These contraptions are so hot right now.
thanks!
just subscribed. thanks for this video :D
I got one yesterday. I can hit it 3 times before I miss. So here I am. 😄
Damn you make it look so easy
You make it look so easy!
It took time. I'd say a solid 2-3 weeks before I felt good on it.
You don't want me in a ring. I learned advanced in a few days
Just purchased one of these things after seeing a few vids of people using them thinking, this'll be a piece of cake. Good grief was i wrong!
excellent content!! well done :-)
Thanks for the visit 🙏
I use one at the gym, at first, ppl watched and snickered, now after a few weeks, people watch me on the low, lol, but either way i think its fun,
now i use a shoe lace thats pretty elastic, it doesn't move that much like his, but it works, again, i like it
Bought one of these today, tried it and yeah; not as easy as I thought it would be. Watching you do it made my jaw drop. You make it look ridiculously easy!
Interesting that you prefer it to the double-ended bag. I have one of those too and really like it. But seeing what you did has made me want to get good at this. Thanks! Great video.
Just need some practice ;)
Do you used hand wrap for this? Or just man up and go through the pain?
@@faiz7180 I bought padded training gloves. I knew a boxer who always criticised me for not using wraps. He was right. My hands are stiff these days and I regret not listening. Look after your hands.
Also without something covering the knuckles the ball will bounce off them at odd angles, so padding helps with that.
Did you get better
Yes this is epic
Good bless all u
I've been offered one by my wife. Let's see how it goes. Thanks for the video.
Do you know some exercises i can do to improve the accuracy of my kicks?
For those of you who want to make this more stiff and faster you can use Shockcored if you go up to 550 shock cord
Gabriel Varga can you use a Reflex Ball to train punch evasion head movement? If yes can you make a video doing that please and thank you?
How long is too long to be doing this? Should we use wrist wraps? My knuckles are crazy red right now.
Hey I know this video is old and you said you shouldn’t buy one but I did that was before I knew you could diy it I bought the title boxing one is they’re any difference for that one and your or no
I have bought one, how long the string should be and is the weight of the ball imprtant? Mine is made of foam and kinda light
My son got one of these on two days ago. I’ve used it so much I’m already on the “advanced” level. It’s easier to do if you wear hand wraps or gloves as the ball doesn’t ricochet off your knuckles so it’s easier to control.
It took me an hour to get this
I just toss it forward and let it bounce towards me until I punch it, it works everytime
There is yet another level of training with this. Use this reflex ball while using boxing resistance bands. You can make those for cheap price if you find cheap resistance cords on internet.
Too late... I bought one 😅🤣... but great video!!
I got one and played with it a few times but didnt really stick with it.
But can you throw a spinning hook kick and land it on the ball
Thanks budd, I suck at this
Oh man. You should have seen me the first week.
It was definitely humbling.
How do I stop the string from whipping me in my eye
I bought one and idk if it's just a shit design but the cable keeps whipping me in the face and in my eyes. Any advice?
I started using one, and got better within few minutes, but after about 30 minutes I started missing alot since my focus was all over the place . How many minutes a day would you recommend to train this so I don't burn myself out but keep learning ?
This is were I am at and the flinching I'm day 2😂hanging in there wanted to get sharper on my reflex before I started training for boxing not looking to go pro or nothing just picking up a new hobby
How do you keep it from spinning?
Question for the pros - why do I keep gettin the string caught on my thumb? What am I doin wrong?
