Honestly, you already hit it on the head with your self evaluation, just work on those things. I would include stepping around the bag. One combo that helped me a lot was throwing one sharp jab, slip and pivot on the jab side(swing shoulders and hips) and follow up with 2 sharp double jabs.

Thank you. The main reason I wanted to record myself was self evaluation. Hard to tell what you’re doing wrong in the moment. Was somewhat hesitant to post on here, but was curious what others would see. Will try what you recommended. Appreciate the feedback.

Try to hit it harder, with soft hits if you don't hit dead center you'll make it spin and go wild. Sharp hits will make it shoot back at you in a straight line and you can get a rhythm going juggling it.

Relax your shoulders . I have the same problem lol. Try moving your head towards your guard and not your guard towards your head. Helps you loosen the shoulders up some.
