Great bag

I'm not a boxer by any means. I'm much more into weight training and bodybuilding but I used to love to hit the double ended bag at my old gym. I got to be pretty good at it and would use it as my cardio workout after weight training especially on my chest or shoulder days to really finish them off. That gym closed several years ago and I've really been missing that bag. I ordered the 7 inch which is smaller than I'm used to and a bit challenging for me but I think it's the perfect size as I improve. Made my own portable weighted bottom bag attachment out of a $1 2 gallon bucket and $2 worth of concrete with an eye bolt cemented in place which works awesome and doesn't move at all. Build quality of the bag is great and the leather is very soft. The price at boxing depot was cheaper than anywhere else especially when you factor in shipping. Can't wait to place another order. Thanks!

Hanging

I am interested in purchasing this bag and hope to hang it without having to spend money on a mounting thing. Can it be hung without a mounting platform?

Iamspeed- you could potentially drill two iron hooks (one in the ceiling and one on the floor) and make an inexpensive holding system that way. We also have an inexpensive double end bag bottom-holder here: bx-hv-580 that can be used in conjunction with a typical heavy bag holder.

useful for reaction training

If you can punch these bags with good rhythm and timing you can really get the speed going. This bag will definitely test your reactions and keep you on your toes during your workout. It's a great addition to heavy bag training.

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.
