Hi Kai. I think you fall in the 80-100 lb bag weight range. If you are new to hitting a bag and want a little bit of bag movement to practice your footwork you could go 80lbs. However, I think 100lbs is a better long term option. Here is a good option: bx-hv-162. Be sure to get a good pair of gloves to protect your hands and joints.

Hi Emileee. I can appreciate why you'd want to focus on safety first - it's a smart thing to do! For hanging heavy bags I think you'd be good with the 60lb model here: bx-hv-40.

However my best recommendation is this freestanding bag: tr-bg-724. It's really easy on the joints, mobile, and flexible. If you get a good pair of gloves and this bag you should be all set.

Hi Daniel. The bag comes with a chain unit but not an actual mount for your ceiling. For that you'll want to browse here: http://www.boxingdepot.com/punchingbag-wall-mounts.html and find the right one for your ceiling type. Take note of whether you'll be attaching it to a wooden beam, metal I beam, etc. The universal hanger is a good all around option if you can wrap all the way around the beam.

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 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.

Hey Taylor. Glad to hear you are getting into boxing! I think it will be a worthwhile endeavor for you. Here are some suggestions for equipment:

For your weight and experience I think this kit would be very suitable: bx-hv-1301.

A heavy bag in the 70-80lb range would be good, although you could go up to 90 if you felt the need. For gloves, regular or medium size would fit you (most likely). To attach the bag to your ceiling you'll need a hanger like the ones found here: http://www.boxingdepot.com/punchingbag-wall-mounts.html.

As for glove size - the gloves included in this set would work for you but be a bit big for your wife. You'll want to browse for small/medium gloves for her. A pair like these might fit nicely - bx-gl-2272.

Hi Zack. I think this 80lb bag set would be perfect. You don't want to go too much heavier or you might injure yourself. In a couple years you might want to upgrade to 100lbs, but for now this is good.

Unfortunately these heavy items tend to be problematic during international shipping for us so we have to limit the areas available.

Hanging the Bag

I would like to ask: how do you hang this thing? Do you hook it to your ceiling? Is that hook included? Will it tear up my ceiling when it swings? How does it hold 80 lbs.? Thank you. Permalink

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!

For your age and body weight, I think a 70 or 80lb bag would you suit you fine. That being the case, this set should do well.

As for hand and leg weights, I'll point you to Karate Depot's wearable weights section - http://www.karatedepot.com/wearable-weights.html.

If you need free weights for lifting, you might have to go to a nearby sports store for that one!

These gloves are a one size fits all style (if you have smaller hands you can use handwraps to fill the space).

Most adults of average hand size find these gloves comfortable.

Yea I think this would be a great choice for you. The gloves are good quality and will protect your hands. If you do buy a heavy bag, try going on google and youtube and search for workout methods where you actually take the bag off the hook and use it to build core strength and burst power.

I think it will help with your football training too!

I can't say for certain hurdlegirl because I don't know his weight/hieght/experience level, but I can tell you that this kit is a very good catch all.

80lbs provides solid resistance while still swinging around and keeping the puncher's wrists/hands relatively safe. The gloves and handwraps included are of good quality.

I'd say this is a good way to go.

Hey Srpuncher. The good news is that we absorb the cost of the shipping. Right now we are running a totally free shipping special, so if you can afford to I recommend ordering now.

Our normal offer is around $5 shipping for all items.

I recommend the 80 or 100 pound bag here - bx-hv-162. You can blast the 100 no problem, but it will have less swing.

Bag as gift

I would like to buy a bag for my boyfriend. He has years of experience using punching bags so I want to be sure to get him a good one but as a surprise. He is 5'11", 175 lbs. Would like to be able to hang it form the garage joists or us a bag stand. What do you recommend? Permalink

Hey Evelyn. For your boyfriend's dimensions I would recommend a 70 or 80lb bag. Keeping his experience in mind, he would probably get this bag swinging pretty good, so consider if you have space for that. If you don't, you can get a heavier bag (80-90lb) and reduce the swinging.

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. It sounds like you have one already, but just make sure. Ceiling mounts tend to look like this: http://www.boxingdepot.com/punchingbag-wall-mounts.html.

This bag would be tough for you for awhile. You'd probably hit it and not have it swing too much. That being said, as you get older it will be more and more appropriate for you. We do have a bag that is a bit lighter over here: bx-hv-162.

Hi kk. I agree, I think this bag would be a great addition to your workout routine.

The toughest thing about starting a heavy bag routine is sticking with it, because even with the gloves on, your hands and wrists might get sore for awhile.

If you can establish a training routine of 15-20 mins on the bag, 2 times a week, and stay at it for 2-3 months, you'll find it easier and easier to make it a sustainable part of your life.

I live near the border so the kit will ship inside the US and will pass it through customs myself. In addition to taxes, there is a fee if the material is manufactured outside Canada/USA/Mexico.

What is written on the kit? Made in _____

Maybe someone who bought the kit can answer this?

Thank you.

This would be a great kit for you. The gloves are very protective for beginners and there is enough bag weight to accommodate you if you increase your skill level.

The only thing missing here is a stand. you'll either have to get a mount to attach the bag to your ceiling (like this: bx-ac-36), or a freestanding stand (like this: bx-hv-841).

This would be on the upper end of weight I would recommend for you (60 or 70 depending on your fitness level), so I think you'd be fine. Also the gloves are standard size so with the handwraps I don't think you'll have any problems.
