Heavy Bag Boxing Technique?

Question

I just started out using the heavy bag at my local gym about a month ago, so Im pretty new to boxing. I have ok form, but I want it to be much better. What are some good heavy bag workouts, and can someone give me a good website where I can find all the different kind of punches I can use during the workout?

Thanks

You are better off getting a boxing lesson or two. That way you know your punches are working. Anything we try and describe here, or even what you see off a dvd is missing so much of what a real punch needs to be taught like.

You might as well just keep doing what you are doing in other words. As long as you are sweating what's the difference?
