If you dont have a floor to ceiling bag just yet you can improvise, even hanging a tennis sized ball by some string or rope from somewhere and just moving around and jabbing and punching it semi shadow boxing style no need to punch hard, you can also train distance this way to by moving in and out while punching.
You dont need to punch hard to train technique and accuracy, shadowboxing is very good for this too.
Also use a speedball to develop hand flow and speed.
In striking developing hand flow is very important, spend as much time on these as you do hitting the heavy bag.
how many pushups do you usually do max ?
how many sit ups crunches ?
start skipping.
stop hitting the light switch , you are only gonna to break it then you will hve to train in the dark.
