Question
i would like to know about your nonstop combinations also do you know good ways to gain, endurance, stamina, with out spar.

Answer
HI armando,

I'm not sure if your reference to"non-stop" combinations is on the speed bag or boxing, but I will address the speed bag. ON the speed bag, certain movements with one rebound inbetween constitute a technique and techniques can be joined together to create punching combinations from all around the bag.

As you join techniques and create punching combinations, you can do as many as you want, from all around the bag - nonstop. A speed bag routine may go on for 3-5 minutes without stopping. See that here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2E9bmT4_twU

You can gain endurance and stamina by rode work, doing many rounds of bag work (heavy bag, double end bag, speed bag etc.) and doing some of training ideas found on RossBoxing.com
