hip flaps

Leather Hip and Groin Guard



I think the most important factor for this guard is the hip flaps. If you have reason to be extra cautious about your hips and lower abdominal, this might be a good choice for you. The flap design allows you good mobility, especially if you want to integrate kicking into your training. The protection to the groin wraps under nicely as well, providing the most important protection of all.

getting what you pay for

Professional No Foul Protector



At first glance this item seems a little pricey, and it is. But the quality of the design and the materials used is top notch. This model is extremely light and provides an excellent amount of mobility. These bigger groin and ab protectors can be a bit inhibiting at times, and this design doesn't suffer from much of that. It is also very protective - hard shell jock cups provide good protection too, but sometimes you need to cover a little more area. THis area style protector has that covered as well.

Fight Pro Shoes



I've used these for around the dojo. They are valuable for general use as they keep your feet comfortable and padded, especially when walking around on hard wood. They can also be used for sparring, although sometimes they are a bit hard for that purpose. They are also mark-resistant, which is nice to keep the school floor in good shape.

I wear adidas in my day to day life, so checking out these boots was valuable for me. They seem to follow the same general design as other adidas shoes, and have a very nice high ankle feel. The toe tip material helps prevent skid marks on the ring and gym mats.

still one of the best

Core Supporter with BioFlex Cup



There are a lot of fancy groin protectors out there and a lot of choices. More often than not though I still go back to a basic cup like this one. It can be easily slipped on and off and it doesn't need a pair of neoprene shorts to go along with it. You can slip this kind of boxer shorts with ease, which is nice. The protection itself is good, it covers what needs to be covered.

best for the hips

High Performance Protective Cup



A guard like this is really best for the hips and lower abdominal. You might find the groin protection itself pretty average, but the whole unit does provide good protection. This could be especially useful for kickboxers as a lot of knees and roundhouse kicks are flying.

Core Basic Full Zip Hoodie



This hoodie is most definitely a staple for any boxer. The everlast brand has been around forever and they have been making this hoodie forever. The quality is unquestionable, but you are also paying for the brand name, which is something to consider. If you like being a part of boxing culture, this is a good choice. You could, however, probably browse around and find something as good for a little bit less.

Amateur Competition Boxing Gloves



There are a lot of bag oriented gloves floating around, but these gloves are best suited for sparring and ring work. The extra padding helps keep your sparring partners or opponents safe while still transferring the impact that you want. Solid wrist support as well.

I believe these gloves are better suited for bag work than sparring work. The wrist strap and foam structure lend themselves to good protection during bag routines. Lonsdale has a history of good products, and these gloves are no exception. The inner thumb material is a nice touch as well.

Deluxe Home Gym Bag Workout Center



This 4 station unit has basically everything you would need for bag training. The heavy bag, of course, is the stable of the whole thing.If you add a little weight or security to the bottom footing bars, you can train as hard as you want without the unit shaking. Even without it is very stable. The best thing about this piece of equipment is that a couple of people can use it at a time.

adidas tends to bring it

Three Stripe Speed Bag



One thing that I have noticed is that adidas generally brings good quality with their products. That's a little bit of a blanket statement and im sure there are exceptions, but this speed bag seems to hold true to it. The classic adidas symbol is located right on the front, and the stitching and material seems to be able to take a lot of abuse.

Fighters Compartment Gym Bag



This bag was definitely designed with boxers in mind. One thing that really stands out is the effective use of space in the auxiliary pockets. Most smaller, extra pockets are barely usable as they hug the main bag tightly. These pockets are developed with some width that can actually handle bigger items. The design is also very cool, with some trademark ringside logos and boxing white silhouette on the front. Top notch for a great price.

really beefy

Wrecking Ball Heavy Bag



If you've ever wanted the satisfaction of really laying into a bag, this kind of wrecking heavy ball is perfect. The round nature of the ball lets you use a greater variety of techniques than a typical heavy bag. Of course, if you use pushing techniques to the front there does tend to be a bit more sway. You also have to be careful not to punch or kick the chains and injure yourself. Overall its a great gym addition, although not a complete replacement for classic heavy bags.

Uppercut Bag



This is a nice addition to normal heavy bag work. Since heavy bags generally cant accommodate uppercut techniques, this bag right next to it provides that extra dimension. Also the price is not very restrictive, so it's not such a splurge. There isn't too much of a problem with popping and shifting, as I was initially worried about.

prefer the curved, but still good

Hook & Loop Leather Punch Mitts



One thing about buying strike pads like this is how you like to conduct your training sessions. If you buy a flat pair like this you'll have to keep in mind the correct body posture so that your training partner doesn't slip off every time they hit. I tend to prefer the slightly more ergonomic and organic curved versions that tend to slide the punch into the center of the mitt. But like I said, this is all a matter of taste. The quality here definitely isn't an issue.

Round Punch Shield



The quality of this product is good, but it's the price that tends to stand out. You could end up paying a lot more for a similar product with negligible difference in design and padding. This shield protects against punches and even kicks directed at the body, and the holder can hold it on the sides, that way you can have it flush up against the body (which is actually the safest way to use a pad like this).

Mouth Guard Case



If you intend to get a mouth piece, be sure to get a case as well. One of the biggest problems with mouth guards is when they get dirty or bacteria starts to spring up (from all the moisture). Proper maintenance requires semi-frequent cleaning and a good case to protect it. This one also happens to be very inexpensive, which is nice.

Angle Uppercut Bag



This bag is super tough and is great for punch work. I refrained from giving it a full 5 stars because kicking on this bag is a little bit awkward. That is notable for martial artists, but for boxers you can go full steam ahead here. The weight makes it very stable and the uppercut capability really increases the kinds of routines you can do.

Standard Thai Pads



The funny thing about good Thai pads is that you don't know how valuable they are until you try them. These pads let you rip knees, elbows, side kicks, and roundhouse kicks without any danger to your partner. Also, your partner can move and adapt quickly from one kind of technique to the next. What you get is a high voltage striking series that is great for technique and for exercise.

Rubberized Medicine Ball



The main selling point for rubberized medicine balls is the enhanced grip, and I have found that improvement to be very true. When you get sweaty and tired other medicine balls can slip become slick. The rubber provides great traction. Since this is a 12 lb ball you can be pretty sure that you'll be sweating by the end of the workout. Definitely recommended for grip and durability.

Takes me back

Olympic Style Beaded Jump Rope



Back in middle school we used to have these jump ropes all over the place. As kids we really put these things through the ringer. Without exception the plastic was scratched, nicked, and beat. But that's what makes the olympic beaded style so good - pure durability. The beads take the brunt of the abuse so that the cord doesn't have to. And, on the off chance it does break, it is so cost effective that you can just buy a gross of them.

One other thing to note is that it can't take the same amount of abuse as leather or plastic beaded ropes.

This shirt is interesting because it gives a little homage to the Samurai of Japan.

This has really become a must-have among boxers and cornermen. The bag is extremely high quality and can resisst the wear and tear that you see around a boxing ring. The stuff inside is all very useful and valuable and you never know when you might need it.

Yea I guess it is a matter of just how much 'feel' you want during your training routines.

Less padding can help build knuckle and wrist strength in trainees that are conscious of not over-doing it.

Hi Papo - How much you fill the base is not entirely proportional to your body weight. It is more a combination of your striking power your body weight (which naturally allows you to sink more thrust into your techniques).

Answer to: how do I attach the speed bag to the sweval?
Traditional Style Pro Swivel

Hey Derrick - Chain link style swivels require a small amount of work to open. It is recommended that you keep a pair of snap ring pliers handy, but regular pliers will work as well. Secure and remove the metal side pieces and use the pliers to pry open the chain link. Once the speed bag is placed on the bottom link, reverse the process and place the link back on your swivel base.

Kutting Weight Sauna Suit

Hey 300 - These sauna suits are very effective at helping you lose water weight. That's very useful for dropping a quick pound or two here and there in a hurry - which is great for boxers who are trying to cut weight before a weigh in or a person getting ready for bathing suit season.

If you are trying to lose serious weight, including fat/calories/etc/etc then this will not really help. In fact, some people find that they cannot workout for quite as long when wearing this because it dehydrates you quicker (as per its design).

If you are looking to lose a substantial amount of weight, I would recommend investing in other equipment like jump ropes, weights, boxing equipment, etc.

Sauna Suit

Hey Jack. During normal exercise you are working the bodies muscles and burning fat as fuel for the bodies activities. Sweat occurs at the same time, but not actually from the fat - more from the large amounts of water in the body. Sweating is a way for the body to keep itself cool during activity. The Sauna suits retains body heat, which makes the body sweat more in order to try and keep cool. Therefore, more water and thus more water weight is lost.

Hope that helps!

In regards to hanging it up, the bag will come with a chain and swivel. So you'll need to find a reliable beam in your home or purchase a freestanding heavy bag stand like this: bx-hv-90. After screwing the swivel into your strong beam, have an assistant hold the bag up just high enough while you take the chain and hook it into the swivel.

Boxing Gloves

Hi Nicole! the wraps underneath are a personal choice, but they do offer a nice layer of added protection. With the wraps on you don't have to worry about any abrasiveness from the gloves, and in addition wraps help keep your wrist aligned properly in order to avoid spraining and over-extension.

In regards to the sizing - you'll want to think about how much room you have left in your smalls. If there is a little bit of room you could get a shorter kind of wrap (like this - bx-ac-550) which doesn't take up much space and still be fine. If the gloves are pretty tight as-is, you may want to consider going up a size. If going up a size proves a bit too big, then you can just get longer wraps with more material.

Bag Gloves

Hi Nicole. That sounds like a great idea for a gift. Here's what you want to do-

First, figure out how much experience your dad has with boxing and how big a fella he is. If he is 6' and has been boxing for years, you'll want to consider a 100lb heavy bag. If he is smaller and will only use the bag recreationally, you can go a bit lighter like 60-70 lbs.

Answer to: i want to get my husband a punching bag for fathers day but have no idea all the chains and . . .
Bag Gloves

This bag right here is a great option if your trying to be cost effective: bx-hv-380. The good thing about this and most other bags is that they come with the chains needed to hang it from a hook or hanger. If you'd like to spend a few more dollars, consider this impressive bag: bx-hv-368. It's very high quality leather, durable, and pleasant to work with.

One thing these bags and most other bags don't address is the actual hook used to hang the bag up with. For that you'll need something like this: bx-ac-36, or if you don't want to drill into your wooden beams, something like this: bx-hv-369.

As to the second part of your question, handwraps and bag gloves are notably different. Handwraps are a long cloth chord that you use on your hands directly to protect the knuckles and secure the wrist. Generally handwraps are used alone for speed bag training, but with heavy bags it is recommended that you get real bag gloves in addition. The gloves provide the foam or gel protection needed to keep training over long periods of time safely. Here is an example of handwraps: bx-ac-312, and here are some nice bag gloves: bx-gl-11.

Open-Thumb MMA Gloves

Hi Noh. Since your son is still developing physically and his bones are still shaping it is important to take a little extra precaution with impact training.

A good, affordable bag to start with is the Nevatear 60 pounder: bx-hv-162.

Hi Sash. There are a few notable differences. The evergel handwraps are tough, but can't take the same amount of direct abuse as MMA gloves. Also, since they are wraps, they are prone to getting shifted or snagged during real bouts. That being said, a good pair of wraps actually helps the wrist and fist to stay safer, which is why in boxing they wear handwraps underneath traditional gloves. It's the best of both worlds.

For MMA matches, fighters usually have tape with real MMA gloves over top.

Hi dcasas. Yea we've been hoping that Everlast would increase the color options on these gloves as well. They are excellent gloves but not every woman enjoys pink, like yourself.

As of right now the gloves that are explicitly for women are pink, but if you have small hands you can consider the junior sized gloves as well (like these: bx-gl-65).

Answer to: why is this one bag so much more than the 3pc special addition pack w the 80lb bag the gloves . . .
Standard Leather Heavy Bag

Hey Sara, let me tackle each piece of your question separately.

The price disparity you are seeing between the two bags can stem from a variety of reasons. The first is specials. Sometimes we run specials or sales on different equipment that can provide unique opportunities to get very good equipment or packages at a low price. That is part of the heavy bag kit's situation right now. However, it also has to do with the quality of the bag. Both are high quality, but the bag in the heavy bag kit is polycanvas while the bag selected on this page is genuine leather. As you might imagine leather is a pricier material.

The weight of the bag can effect the price, but generally only a little bit. The construction of the bag is more important in that regard. Some boxers enjoy the experience of leather, and it is time tested as a reliable material that can take a beating. That being said, polycanvas is excellent as well.

When shopping for weight, the-heavier-the-better is not always true. You'll want to take into consideration your body weight and experience punching. The more body weight you have the more weight you can sink into each punch, therefore a heavier bag is appropriate to absorb that impact without flailing all about. However if you are a beginning puncher you don't want to injure yourself on an overly hard and heavy bag.

To build a strong punch consider those two things. If you're body weight is 160-200 go with the 80lb bag, if it is less go with the 70. These are just generalizations but should help if you are trying to narrow down options.

100th Anniversary Heavy Bag Set

Hi Jaime. Generally speaking the two things to consider are body weight and experience in boxing. If you're just getting started you'll want a heavy bag that's a little bit lighter and more forgiving on your hands. That being the case, 80lbs might be a pretty good choice.

If you feel like your punching experience is pretty good you could go up to 100lb.

Answer to: I'm looking to purchase gloves for 8 year old twins. Should I get little tykes or ever last gloves . . . .
Little Tyke Boxing Gloves

Hi Mindy, either brand would actually be ok for your twins. They are both well sized for 8 year olds and will hold up to punishment. If you want maybe you can get one of both so they both feel special, haha.

In regards to punching bags, we do have the inflatable punch tower: tr-bg-40. This is a lot of fun for kids, but is more of a toy than a training tool. If you want the kids to eventually develop good punching, this might not be the option.

One interesting solution is going with a water-fill heavy bag like this: bx-hv-655 or this: bx-hv-656. You can start by filling it up halfway, and then as they get older and stronger just keep filling it up more to increase resistance.

The sizes you see available are the statistically most used sizes as many individuals use sauna suits to cut weight before a fight or to trim down.

No need to feel stupid Nat, we are here to help.

Yes, this set would work fine for you. 80lbs should be heavy, but not TOO heavy. You can safely kick this bag without shin and foot protection, just be mindful of not doing too much too soon. You're liable to get sore if you do.

You could definitely wrap the chain around a tree limb, but make sure it is a sturdy limb and that the bag won't slide off after taking some hits. Like you said, any bag outside will take more abuse from mother nature than indoor bags, but it is up to you if that is ok.

Answer to: What are the pro's and cons of each? I've never bought a punching bag, so I'm not sure which way . . .
Punching Bags

Hey Karli. The most important difference between the two is space available. Free standing bags can basically be put anywhere as long as the floor can handle the weight (Which generally it can). The only problem is that freestanders can shift over time and even tip over if you use strong thrusting techniques.

A hanging heavy bag can never fall over and will only swing as you hit it, which actually can help improve your footwork and add an element of interest to the workout. The problem is that you have to have a strong ceiling bean to hang it out, or a bag holder like this - bx-hv-369.

Considering your body weight and athletic background I think you could probably get a 80-90 lb heavy bag and enjoy it.

Everlast is usually pretty reliable, but of course at a college rec center you can never be sure how respectful people will be of the equipment. If I had to guess I would say 3-4 years, but that's a real shot in the dark.

The good thing about going with a foam bag with water insert is that you can still have a nice weight to the bag (50-60lbs or so) and the bag will have a full feeling. If you want to go lighter with a water filled bag you can put in less water, but it will be more prone to sloshing and emptiness toward the top.

BOB - Body Opponent Bag

Although it has a very sturdy base when you fill it with water or sand, any standing bag is going to shift and rock a little on you.

If you want to be courteous to your downstairs neighbors, give them a certain time of day to stop for a minute and listen. Then go through a sparring drill or punching mitt drill up in your place.

If it disturbs him, the standing bag will also. If he can't hear it, you have a good shot.

Hey Ralph. Yea that is a very common problem when it comes to standing punching bags. Your first option is to empty the water in the basin and fill it with sand. Sand tends to be more dense and shift less. Your section option is to get a piece of padding for your floor that is very grippy and place the punching bag on top of that.

Finally you can tie freeweights to it or put sandbags on it, although that can be annoying at times when you are training.

Platinum Heavy Bag Kit (80 lb)

Hi betho. I'm not a dietary expert or physician, but I am a martial artist so perhaps I can offer an opinion for your consideration.

The key 'secret' is regulating diet and getting regular exercise. A lot of times people think of exercise as running and weight lifting, but it isn't just those two things. There are a lot of ways you can 'trick' yourself into exercising by doing things that are fun or interesting.

A 15-20 regiment on the heavy bag 3-4 times a week would be a great start. In addition, since you are a martial artist, I highly recommend you incorporate kata training a couple of times a week. Kata can challenge you muscles and keep you body guessing.

In addition, I utilize a book called 'The Okinawa Program' to improve the quality of my diet. It isn't really a diet plan like weight watchers or anything like that. It's more of an explanation as to how the Okinawans became the longest lived people on the planet, and how you can integrate that healthiness into your life.

http://www.amazon.com/Okinawa-Program-Longest-Lived-Everlasting-Health--/dp/0609807501/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1298994911&sr=8-1.

Hey Jimmie. I know the sensation you are feeling. Being able to walk a few steps in shoes before actually buying them is something noticeably missing from online shoe shopping.

The good news is, we accept returns and exchanges no problem if the size doesn't work out. The only thing you would need to pay is the buck or two shipping to send them back to us.

These gloves are a standard size, so you don't have to worry about that. The density variations you are seeing (12oz, 14oz, etc) is in regards to how much padding the glove has. The more oz, the more padding.

100th Anniversary Heavy Bag Set

Hi Bee. If I were to assume he has little (or no) boxing experience I would recommend a 70 or 80lb bag. If he does have experience, you could go up to 90 or 100.

If he is a boxing fan, a regular size bag (like the one on this page) would be fine. If he wants to kick as well you might consider a muay thai striking bag, which is longer: bx-hv-41.

Canvas or polycanvas exterior is cheaper than traditional leather, so if you are on a budget you could go that way. Leather is easier on bare knuckles though, so assess if he intends to use gloves.

Hey Tom. I think I should be able to make some recommendations.

For the bag, I recommend the 70lb Everlast Nevatear - bx-hv-162. It is affordable ($99) and durable. The weight should strike a good balance between you and your wife.

If the joist in question is wooden, this holder should do the trick - bx-ac-24. If it is a metal I-beam, consider this one - bx-ac-22.

Regarding the gloves - You have some options there. If you want something inexpensive, you could go with these - bx-gl-210. They provide decent protection but don't support the wrist or promote proper punching alignment. If you want something better, go with these - bx-gl-227. Very high quality with wrist support. If your wife has small hands you may want to consider these in junior or medium - bx-gl-217.

We do have some good dvds for you to choose from - http://www.boxingdepot.com/controller.aspx?type=view&info=search&a=ft&v=dvd.

Boxing Gloves

Hi Daisymae. Thanks for coming to us! Let's get you started in the right direction:

1. You'll want "bag" or "Training" gloves. Since those kinds of drills aren't intended as sparring, you'll be better off with the bag variety. I recommend something like this: bx-gl-216, bx-bg-101. Remember, the higher the ounce (oz) the more padding you get but the heavier the glove feels on your hand. Sizewise those are both considered 'regular'. If you believe you have small hands, consider these: bx-gl-217.

2. For the pads, I recommend punching mitts like this: bx-tr-204. They are reasonably priced, have a bigger striking surface, and are one-size-fits-all.

3. You could both use the same gloves if you wanted to. Size might be an issue if you have smaller hands, so you could opt to get smaller gloves as suggested above. Also, your hands definitely get sweaty in there so you may feel more comfortable in separate pairs of gloves. If you choose to wear handwraps (bx-ac-550) some of that sweat impact will be reduced.

Punching Bags

Hi Rita. Thanks a lot for choosing our site. I think I have some suggestions that will help you find the optimal setup. I also have a background in martial arts so I should be able to give you some tips there as well.

The bag you asked about, http://www.boxingdepot.com/tr-bg-07.html , would actually be an excellent choice. It's large surface area would make it manageable for both the adults and kids in the house, and it's hefty weight when filled would give you the desired resistance for strong srtiking. When filled, you might be able to push it over, but it's very hard to strike it over.

Right now we have one of those xxl wavemasters in stock. Just in case that runs out, or in case you'd like an alternative, check out this bag: bx-hv-41. This is a hanging Muay Thai style bag that can be attached to a ceiling beam in your garage. Depending on waht kind of beams you have, you can use one of these mounts: http://www.boxingdepot.com/punchingbag-wall-mounts.html, or just rig up one of your own.

This muay thai bag is a nice choice because it is foam filled, which means you won't have to worry about it freezing in winter. It also has an extended surface area so it is good for martial arts technique and can still be reached by shorter users. The weight is a little more than I would normally recommend for beginners, but most of that is due to the length so I think you'll be fine. For a standard sized hanging heavy bag I would recommend around 80-90 lbs.

In regards to the floor - if you are wearing decent running shoes I doubt you'll have to worry about your joints too much. However if you have some existing joint sensitivity,or you'd like to train barefoot, I would definitely throw down some mats. Furthermore, if you go with the freestanding xxl wavemaster, they tend to shift around on concrete (low friction between the surfaces). laying some jigsaw mat can help prevent that. We are currently out of stock on jigsaw mat, but you might be able to find them at a nearby sports shop or elsewhere online.

In regards to special equipment - No special shoes are necessary. Just get ones with decent shock absorption since you'll be working on concrete. If you are doing a lot of kicking your shins might get sore, so something like this might help: http://www.karatedepot.com/pr-sh-400.html. That pair should stay in place during workouts and fit while still wearing shoes.

In regards to gloves - since your son wants open palm, I would recommend going in this direction: http://www.karatedepot.com/ma-gl-103.html (size regular or large depending on expected growth spurt). They should provide enough padding for striking the bag while still having that 'open grapple' sensation. However, for the rest of you, I recommend true bag gloves as they are more comfortable and easier on the joints. Check these two pairs out: bx-gl-217 (size junior for the youngest child, medium for you and 15 yr old, medium/large for your husband depending on if he has big hands), or these: bx-bg-100.

You may eventually want to play around with handwraps for added wrist and knuckle protection, but I wouldn't worry about that right off the bat.

In regards to DVD - if you'd like to learn good martial arts technique via the heavy bag, I recommend this training tape by Wim Demeere - http://www.paladin-press.com/product/The_Fighters_Video_Guide_to_Hard-Core_Heavy_Bag_Training/Combat_Fitness/. He's a good quality martial artist and you'll get good advice.

I hope this helps - feel free to follow up with any questions because I know this is a lot of info to take in!

Double End Bag Attachment

Basically it is an addition to a heavy bag setup. As you know, heavy bags hang via chain and attachment either to your ceiling or to an independent bag stand. This product works in conjunction with that.

To operate a double ended bag you need not only that ceiling hook but also a hook in the ground. Some people don't want to (or can't) drill for that. If you fill this base with water or sand, it essentially acts as that second hook and stays in place due to it's weight. Very portable and convenient, but you do still have to have access to a ceiling hook or independent bag stand.

Boxing Gloves

Hi Jeremy. The difference between traditional gloves and muay thai is subtle. In general the thumb placement for thai gloves allows for easier clinching as that is an important part of muay thai competition. Furthermore the padding lends itself to a little more flexibility outside of punch position.

With your hands being so big, have you ever tried something like this in xl: ma-gl-722. The thumb and finger freedom may be what the doctor ordered.

Punching Bags

Hi Scott. Hopefully I can help out a little bit. I don't know what the bags at gleasons feel or look like, so I'll just try to give my best recommendations:

1. 100lbs might be a little overkill. A bag that big could get rough on your joints, especially as you get older. I'd probably recommend 70-80 pounds instead. Here are two good ones to consider: bx-hv-368, bx-hv-850. That being said, if you really want a challenge go ahead with the 100.

2. If the bag feels low you can always latch it a few chain links higher.

3. I'd recommend the all-purpose bag holder because it contains a metallic interior with non-slip cloth exterior: tr-bg-839. Because of that, it tends to be quieter than most standard holders. Be sure to read the instructions when using this one - the bag hands on the nylon and not the metal strap buckles.

4. Here are a few good choices to check out. Don't forget to check the size of your old gloves. bx-gl-217, bx-gl-228, bx-bg-100.

Hope this helps!

Standing Punching Bag

Hey John. Actually standing bags do behave a little differently. In general, the weight of a standing bag is in the basin, with the striking surface filled entirely with foam padding. That being the case, it is easier on the hands and flexes with your strikes more readily.

A traditional hanging heavy bag provides more resistance and weight.

When using a standing bag, your workout can still be very good, but it will be slightly different.

The skin tight suits like "Kutting Weight" do not require clothes to be worn underneath. Some of the more loose fitting suits provide room for clothes. Wearing a few articles of light clothes can help prevent chaffing in those instances.

Punching Bags

Hey RJ, I think you have a few options.

1. An affordable and space saving solution is going with a free standing bag like this: tr-bg-724. You can transport this item and fill it on location. The only problem is that it doesn't provide the solid resistance of a very heavy hanging bag.

2. You could get a solid, high weight heavy bag: bx-hv-850, and then since you can't hang it from the ceiling you could get a freestand: bx-hv-841. This would take up a little more space, and I wouldn't recommend it if you are in a dorm (especially if you aren't on the first floor) since it will disturb neighbors. Nevertheless, it's a functional, affordable option.

Either would be ok I think, but if you are a beginner I might err on the side of 70lb. As for precautions -

Also be sure the the mount you use to attach the bag to the ceiling is secure, and that the beams aren't cracking under the stress.

This bag would be able to hang from a stand right away as it comes with the chain assembly, but to hang it from the garage ceiling you'll need a mount in place.

Punching Bags

Hi KG. One of your biggest obstacles is going to be getting the bag to hang low enough for the kids but high enough for dad. That being said, I might recommend this muay thai style bag: bx-hv-1102.

Although it's heavy, the weight is distributed along a long surface (longer than normal punching bags). That means your kids won't have to hit up at the bottom of the bag and potentially hurt their hands (over time weight tends to settled at the bottom of bags, making it harder than the rest of the surface).

You may already have something like this, but you'll also need a mount to attach it to the basement ceiling: http://www.boxingdepot.com/punchingbag-wall-mounts.html.

As for gloves, your husband might enjoy something like this: bx-gl-1205 (12 oz), while the kids would be better suited with something like this: bx-gl-453 or this bx-bg-52.

Hey Ginja. Yes, generally you hook it to your ceiling or purchase an individual bag stand. (bag stands are here - http://www.boxingdepot.com/heavy-bag-stand.html).

If you'd like to hang it from your ceiling, you'll need a holder. The bag itself comes with chains that run from the bag to the ceiling. However, you'll need a holder like this to secure to the ceiling - bx-ac-36.

Just make sure you're ceiling beam can handle the weight!

Two examples are here: bx-hv-51 and here: bx-hv-40, but there are others you can find if you browse around. With a hanging bag, make sure you have a proper stand or a durable ceiling beam to hang it from. You may need to get a hanger like this one: bx-ac-36.

Alternatively, you could go with a freestanding bag like this one: tr-bg-724.

Congrats Kevin on the upcoming opening of your facility! Given your epxected demographic, I would crate a bag range between 60-100lbs.

The 100lb bags will be perfect for the natural athletes and experienced hitters.

As for specific brands, check out some of the following:
* For 50-70lb bags - bx-hv-52. Proven name in the industry that has great interior that won't hurt users.
* For 100lb bag - bx-hv-154. The fairtex is extra strong, extra wide, extra everything.
* accent bag - bx-hv-2005. You may have some members who want to try kickboxing, and this bag is perfect. You'll want at least one full body bag in the gym, and this Twins bag is made to Thailand specifications (Thailand being the home of Muay Thai kickboxing and very stringent on their designs).

I'd also like to point you to http://www.zengu.com, our wholesale website. Since you'll be becoming a studio owner, you may be able to save some money on some of your purchases (it also makes routine purchases for studio odds and ends easier).

Between a standing bag and hanging bag I would recommend the hanging bag for you. The reason why is because your husband can take the chains off and practice throws and grappling transitions with it.

As for the bag weight, 100lbs would be suitable for your husband but you personally might find it a bit like hitting a wall. You'd be better suited with a 70lb bag. Ultimately the choice is yours to go with the 100 or perhaps compromise with an 80lb!

Hi Carly. I wouldn't go over 70lbs for a heavy bag for you. Anything in the 60-70 range would be ideal. you'll also want to handwraps (108" length would be fine) and good gloves. For gloves, you'll want a small/medium size with a high ounce weight (probably around 12oz) which should help protect your hands and wrists. Make sure to get a pair with velcro or tie closure around the wrists.

100th Anniversary Heavy Bag Set

Hi Skibbe. All things being equal I would recommend a 70lb bag to you, although an 80lb bag will certainly work too. As for hanging, this bag comes with a chain assembly that runs between the bag and the ceiling. To attach it to the ceiling itself, browse these hangers: http://www.boxingdepot.com/punchingbag-wall-mounts.html. Figure out what kind of stud you will be using (wood, metal, etc) and go from there.

If you don't have any good ceiling beams to work with, look into one of these units: bx-ac-853.

Hi super ducky. Due to your husband's height and physical fitness I would recommend a hanging heavy bag. I would also recommend one that is 100lbs, like this one: bx-hv-162. Since he is likely to impart lots of power into his strikes I think he'll find the hanging heavy bag more convenient and reliable with less shifting around. Be sure to grab him some gloves too - even pros can injure their joints if punching enough without gloves.

Hi Suzka. Since you're pull up bar can handle your body weight, hanging the bag shouldn't be a problem weight-wise. However, I think it would be difficult to keep it from shifting side to side along the bar. Also, the jumping of the bag may tug and pull at the bar, loosening it from the doorway.

Overall, I think it might be possible, but not ideal.

Hi G. I've dealt with this issue too, using a freestanding bag in a non-first-floor apartment. The hanging bag stand you see here will also rumble around a bit when hit as the power inevitably transfers from the bag, through the chains, and into the unit. That being said, there is probably more local noise from the chains rattling than there is transferred noise through the ground.

One possible solution for both freestanding bags and this unit is to place it on some thick rubber padding. The rubber tends to absorb the shifting and thumping better.

Punching Bags

Hi Tommyboy. I think you're going to get a lot of value out of this kind of training. I can give my opinion on what kind of bag to get, but you'll definitely have to check with your healthcare provider in regards to why might be appropriate. We wouldn't want to aggravate your condition!

That being said, I wouldn't go much higher than 80lbs for a hanging bag for you (that would require a ceiling mount too). An 80lb bag, combined with good gloves, will give you a chance to hit and move as the bag sways.

Freestanding bags are very convenient and a bit easier on the hands and joints. They don't move around as much in terms of sway, so footwork requires a little more creativity to practice.

I hope this helps in your decision, and let me know if you have any follow up questions!

Punching Bags

Hi Dave. This is a fairly common problem with heavy bags over time. There are two possible solutions. The first is just a redistributing of the bags inner contents by taking it down and working it sideways and upside down. Here is a step by step of that process - http://www.livestrong.com/article/482605-how-to-repack-a-punching-bag/

The other option is actually opening up the bag and removing or redistributing those sandbags which tend to sink to the bottom - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pffM1x2NwU4

When not using the bag, you could probably take it down and store it in an upside down position to reverse the natural effects of gravity.

Punching Bags

Hi Magna. For the health of your joints I don't recommend wrapping a support beam as it does not flex or sway with the strike. As for heavy bags, I think the best choice for you is the C3 100lb model: bx-hv-721. This is perfect because it has the weight to give you resistance, but will still provide padding since you are new to heavy bag work. I also recommend a solid pair of bag gloves which you can browse here: http://www.boxingdepot.com/baggloves.html.

Nevatear Punching Bag

Hi Tan. Sounds like a good gift idea. Here are some things to consider:

Hanging bags and standing bags both have pros and cons. Hanging bags require a specific location to attach it to your ceiling or the purchase of a hanging unit like these here: http://www.boxingdepot.com/punchingbag-wall-mounts.html. Hanging bags come with a wider range of weight options, of which the 60-80lb range would be appropriate for your girlfriend's needs. The hanging bag is more solid than a standing bag which means you can develop more striking power into it as well as develop footwork as it swings.

On the other hand, standing bags are extremely mobile and convenient, allowing you to train anywhere. The striking surface itself tends to be a little softer on the hands, making it easier on the knuckles and joints. It doesn't swing like a hanger, so footwork training is a little trickier. Standing bags don't really come in different sizes and weights so you don't have to worry about that.

Hope this helps!

Platinum Heavy Bag Kit (80 lb)

The key for a youngster just getting started is a good pair of gloves. Shope for a glove that has small or medium size and aim for a higher amount of foam padding (14 or 16 oz). After that, pick up some handwraps in case there is extra space in the gloves. Finally, go for a heavy bag that is a little lighter, maybe around 60lbs, so that it isn't immovable for him.

If you want something that is simple, durable, and reliable it's tough to get better than the platinum. Not to mention the silver color will absorb less of that desert sunlight, prolonging the lifespan of the bag.

I also recommend putting the bag near a corner and stuffing the corner with something like an old comforter or pillows. In this way you can have the bag 3 feet or so out from the wall (plenty to move around the front 180 degrees of the bag) and it shouldn't move around on you.

Nevatear Punching Bag

Don't worry Zea, we'll get you the right gear. For your husband's size and weight you could go with either an 80lb bag or a 100lb bag. 80lb bags provide a little more swing and therefore more opportunity for footwork training, 100lb bags provide more resistance. If you'd like to one-stop-shop, this set would do the trick: bx-hv-1501. Otherwise, the bag on this current page would work well, as would this one: bx-hv-40 (Select 80lbs).

As for gloves, I would recommend an inexpensive pair of handwraps here: bx-ac-14, and then gloves like these (probably in medium unless he has big hands): bx-gl-2278.

If you are hanging the bag in the garage, be aware that bags come with a chain and hook but not a mount. Figure out what kind of material you are going to hang it from (metal beam, wooden post, etc) and then select the right mount here: http://www.boxingdepot.com/punchingbag-wall-mounts.html.

A lighter bag is easier on the joints and swings more, allowing the fighter to move around and play with footwork. Very heavy bags are opposite, swinging just a little but letting the fighter strike at full tilt.

Using that information you can decide which weight might be good for you.

Punching Bags

Hi Lara. It's true that if you fill the basin with water it will probably freeze. This can be damaging to the basin as frozen water is likely to expand and crack the plastic. In general water is considered better because it is free and can easily be dumped out and replaced. Sand, on the other hand, works just as well it just costs a little more. To get sand I would recommend visiting a local hardware or gardening store.

Hi Porker. Yes, side-kicking is a more powerful technique than standard punching so no matter what weight you get the bag will swing around on you.

In terms of other items you might need - check to see where you might hang the bag and get an appropriate hanger http://www.boxingdepot.com/punchingbag-wall-mounts.html.

Right, I know what you mean! The two best solutions to that I have seen is placing the bag to the front edge of the non-slip mat, which avoids any mat sticking out in front near the kicker. Also, you could grab a few extra mats and just create a 'kicking area', although that is a little more pricey.

If you are feeling ambitious, you could cut a jigsaw mat to the size of the bag basin and glue it to the bottom of the basin.

Punching Bags

Hi Nick. Generally freestanding bags are foam interior with a synthetic leather exterior. That makes them pretty resistance to cold. Genuine leather needs to be maintained much more steadily, but you won't find genuine leather very often in freestanders so you should be fine. The best kind of bag for the outdoors is a cloth exterior, so if you find one of those keep it in mind.

The water in the base may very well freeze and crack the plastic. I recommend substituting in sand.

Punching Bags

Hi Chelsey. Congrats on taking the first steps toward opening your studio. That is an exciting time!

Here are some thoughts for your flooring:

1. Jigsaw mat pieces are very easy to transport and put up and down. You can roll your floor standing heavy bags onto them easily enough, and the grip of the mat will help keep the bag from sliding around. The downside is that they are only so-so for taking falls.

2. Roll-up wrestling mats could be a good option. As the name implies, they roll up easily and can be stored out of the way. They also offer better padding than jigsaw mats when it comes to taking falls. Their squishy nature will also help keep your heavy bags in place. The downside is an increased cost a bit bulkier to transport.

3. Jujitsu tatami mats are also a viable option. They are highly durable and are excellent for taking falls. They do not roll up, but can be stacked out of the way. In exchange for the high quality, you pay a higher price tag and suffer from difficulty when it comes to transport and storage.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any follow-up questions.

Punching Bags

Hi Viki. THe key will be to get him something light enough that it actually moves with his punches and kicks. If it is too heavy, it may hurt his developing bones. That being said, don't forget to grab him a good pair of gloves too.

In terms of specific recommendations, here are two links to products that might be what you need (since we don't have any ourselves):

Answer to: Hi, I'm a student working on designing a space for a kickboxing/boxing class and I'm wondering how much space is . . .
Punching Bags

Hi Ashley. As long as the class participants don't need to circle the bag entirely while they work you can keep them pretty close together. 4-5 feet apart would work to make sure participants don't roundhouse kick each other.

The only probably you might face is the freestanding bags sliding around as they get hit, sliding toward each other. Try to have a nonslip surface beneath them, like a yoga mat.
