I often go rounds with a bag as a warm-up before exercise. When I was a kid, I broke my right wrist and it's been aching in periods ever since, also when I started punching the bag. But I think punching is actually toughening up the wrist somehow. It hurts less now, both while punching and in general daily life, than it did before I started.

Anyways, with some kicks added, it's a good warm-up, I think. At least it's a lot more fun than jogging
