This bag was great at first but after about 2 months of daily use i broke the half moon clips and knocked my bag off the ceiling. I am only 14 years old and i couldnt imagine what an adult fighter could do to this bag if i could break it in 2 months.

bought this bag as a beginner and was quite pleased with it at first, but over the course of a month i started to dread all the hard spots in it to the point where I'm actually contemplating buying another bag. I would recommend skipping this bag and spending an extra few for a better quality bag...it'll save you money in the long run.

stand

I'm looking for an inexpensive option for a stand. Any options? I don't have a stud that can hold the wall mount...anything else I can do?

We do have a few freestanding bag-holder units, the most inexpensive of which is here: bx-hv-705. If you have a ceiling beam in your basement or garage you can hang a bag from there too, this ibeam attachment works on metal beams: bx-ac-22.

Your other option is to get a freestanding bag. They work just like heavy bags, you just fill their basin up with sand or water and have at it: tr-bg-724.

gloves?

Okay, so if I get a "starter" bag for my son, does he need gloves or is it good to use it without gloves?

Since he is a beginner and likely still growing, it would be a good idea to get gloves too (like these: bx-gl-214). Gloves will protect his skin, bones, and ligaments during repeated punching.

good for a teenager

Would this be a good "starter" bag for a teenager who wants a punching bag?

Yes, this would be a great starter bag Mary. It isn't too heavy (for a heavy bag), is affordable, and is highly resistant. Don't forget you might need a mount too: bx-ac-36

The chain and swivel comes with it, but you need some type of anchor to hang it from.

Punching Bags Expert FAQs
     
  1. What weight heavy bag should I get?

    70lb-90lb bags are the most commonly purchased bags and are appropriate for adults in the 140-170lb weight range. These bags often provide the right blend of resistance and give.
    For individuals who are 170+lbs or who have developed significantly increased punching power, you may want to shop for 100+lb bags.
    Lighter bags in the 25lb-60lb range are great for children or smaller adults who are just starting out in their training regiment.
    When deciding what weight to get, keep in mind that getting a bag that is a bit lighter will increase the sway and motion during your training. This can be beneficial if you are looking to improve your footwork and reactions. Heavier bags have a tendency to stay in place and are better for developing penetration power.

    2.  
  2. How do I hang up my heavy bag?

    You will have two main options for hanging up your heavy bag - installing it into your ceiling or purchasing a mobile stand.
    Many people who have garages or finished basements choose to install the bag directly into a support beam in their ceiling. To do this they either purchase a simple holder or attachment which can be securely fastened to the beam. This method is inexpensive, but it can also be troublesome due to the noise heavy bag training makes. If the beam the bag is attached to connects with the rest of the house, it might cause vibration and noise when struck.

    The second option is purchasing a free stand. These steel constructed units can either be purposed solely for heavy bags, or involve multiple stations for different kinds of bags. It is recommended that users weight the bottom of the device to minimize shifting as the bag is struck and swung.

    3.  
  3. What kind of hand protection should I use?

    It's important to use proper hand protection during training routines, especially if you are just starting out on the heavy bag. A combination of handwrap + bag glove is your best bet.
    Handwrap is an an inexpensive cloth roll that is used to protect the knuckles and skin from abrasion while securing the wrist for repeated impact. Bag gloves are designed with extra padding and firm support in order to disperse the impact of strikes and reduce the strain on your joints. Different bag gloves have different thicknesses, and the sturdier the heavy bag the more padding you might want in your gloves.

    4.  
  4. What kind of bag exterior is best?

    The main exterior types are vinyl, nylon, canvas, and leather. Other options include synthetic leather, polycanvas, and Everlast's Nevatear.
    Professional gyms and locations that use heavy bags frequently choose leather bags for their superior durability and feel. Leather bags are more expensive and require that you rub moisturizer into them occasionally to prevent cracking. Vinyl, nylon, and canvas bags are less expensive and don't require maintenance, making them popular choices for at-home use. Canvas bags are durable but very abrasive against bare knuckles.
