Answer 4

hitting the sand bad will really make you feel relieved... but dont you ever dare to become pro if you just like hitting... you'll get hurt likewise... oh and, are you covering your fists with bandage when your hitting the sand bads with gloves? covering your fist with bandage will lessen the stress youre giving to your fists...

Answer 5

ya i would think thats what i would do

Answer 6

This likely would not work out, boxing has a lot to do with form and focus, and when you are mad those are not always available, getting hit back probably won't exactly cool you down either. An easyer option is to just go running when you are mad, the roadwork will tire you out/relieve stress, and the exercise will be beneficial if you decide to get into boxing anyway.

Answer 7

Yes.

Boxing is a great way to get disciplined and to learn how to release your anger in order to gain concentration.

No.

Hitting the punching bag is not a good way to learn to relieve anger.  I honestly did it a lot in the past, but it's not a good habit for you to develop.

Doing so is part of a defensive mechanism known in Psychology called displacement.  Basically, it's taking your problems out on something or someone else.  Do not resort to this, or you will be used to taking your frustrations out on others, or start damaging stuff.

Learn to control yourself, and be happy.  Your 13.  Control your anger now, and you'll have a good future ahead of you.

Answer 8

Actually boxing can be helpful by shredding anger in a non living object.

Better way is to find a human being to box. You can find some submissive men in your locality for free or on against pay.

How is the idea

Answer 9

Not without proper coaching to get you to focus that anger into an actual fight. Just doing it by yourself could lead to you hitting out at anything in a fit of anger.

What are you angry about try talking to someone about it. It doesn't have to be your mum and dad but what about another adult.

Answer 10

You're a teenager, my friend, and what you're feeling isn't unusual. It will get better.  In the meantime, any hard physical exercise will help you work your frustrations out, and release endorphins which make you feel better.  Yes, a punchbag will help, but so would anything really strenuous.

Answer 11

Put it this way. My first wife used to box my ears for coming home late after a drink at the pub and she used to calm down after doing so. My advice if you have an anger problem is get stuck into what I used to do and it worked well for me, Playing Drums You take out you aggression on the drums, it does work. and you don't get cauliflower ears.

Answer 12

its not that its good for u cause you could hit people out of your anger, but its good for u cause it'll set your attitude straight. You'll find out that when you box out of anger your going to get hit. But buying a punching bag and hitting it when your mad? Go ahead, just dont hit walls cause your gona end up injuring your hand. If your mad go ahead and let loose on the punching bag. Dont forget your wraps.
