    Bounce not true

    I have been using Everlast products for many years. Let me say I have always been satisfied with them. I recently purchased a 6''x9'' Sonic from Everlast and found the bag not to have a true bounce. I have been working a speed bag most every morning for many years. I can not seem to make this bag bounce. It is all over the place. I gave it some time to be broken in and have experimented with air pressure but nothing seems to work. So I guess that I am out of luck on this one. I use an Everlast 4''x6'' and have no problems with it even though it is faster than the new one. As far as I am concerned, someone dropped the ball on this one as far as quality and bounce is concerned.........hk

    speedbag performance

    I have used everlast for the last 42 years. At age 62 I still work out with the model 4200 speedbag, double end bag and light-heavy bag.

    Speed Bags Expert FAQs
       
    1. What size speed bag is right for me?

      When choosing a speed bag the most important decision to make is size. The size of the bag has a great effect on the speed, rebound, and striking surface available to you.
      Bigger bags have a larger surface area and can thus be hit more routinely. However, smaller bags tend to rebound quicker and can provide faster training.
      Also consider the details of make and model when shopping. Some bags have an added attachment loop on the bottom to convert it into a double end bag.
      Beginners generally prefer larger bags as it increases the sweet spot for you to strike. Easier to hit = less frustration and more training. Experienced boxers tend to prefer smaller, quicker bags that allow them to hone their speed and accuracy to a fine degree.

      2.  
    2. How high should I hang the bag?

      Most boxers recommend that you hang your speed bag up at mouth level. This provides a natural feel and keeps the arms working at proper angles. You want to be punching the fattest part of the bag (aka the belly), so having it too low could be problematic in that area. If your speed bag is too high however you will begin to feel unnecessary strain in your arms and neck.

      3.  
    3. How much should I inflate my bag?

      Inflating your bag properly is key to good, safe training. One problem that many beginners face is over-inflation. When a bag is too inflated it becomes stiff and can often hurt the hands.
      When inflating your bag, make sure you keep going until all the wrinkles in the material have been pushed out. However, be certain that you can press the bag with both thumbs and feel it depressing. If you cannot press the bag or are struggling to do so, you may have over-inflated it. If you have under-inflated the bag you'll notice a lack of good rebound, so simply add a bit more until you get the feel you want. Under-inflating is also a good strategy just in case your bag is going a bit too fast for you to keep up.

      4.  
    4. How do I use a maize ball?

      The maize ball is an interesting and inexpensive way to add variety to your training routine. As opposed to a speed bag where the goal is to strike with rhythm and timing, the maize bag swings freely back and forth on a much longer chain. This swinging provides you the opportunity to practice head movement to avoid being struck by the bag and also helps you work on foot movement and shadow boxing.
      The maize bag can be used for hitting practice but is more frequently used as a mobility and reactionary tool.
