I was at the gym earlier, working the heavybag and cause I was sore and had just ate I couldnt go as hard as I normally due. I decided I was going to have to start picking it up a little, after a few bursts I landed a big left hook and the bag kept going. The ring holding it to the frame broke apart and the bag flew and slid across the ground. The whole gym stopped and every body was looking at me. One of the trainers there was started saying "We got a tiger over there, We got another tiger over there!" I offered to help put it back up but the ring is broken in half and it has to be replaced.


Has this happened to any of you. Ive never seen it before and everyboy was looking at me like a celebrity.

I had a canvas heavy bag awhile ago, I really beat the hell out of it and because of my left hooks it was bulging on the right side and eventually started spplitting, well one day I went to work with left hooks and the bulge completely split and the bag ripped in half, stuffing fell out all over the place and the bag was completely in half.

I have never seen, the actual metal ring break off. Ive knocked them off the hooks, but never the metal ring at the top breaking like this time.

Versatile, how did the gym react when you did it.

the first time thy were like "u broke it" second time they were like"u broke it again" 3rd time"u did it again" and with the bag ripping they said "u broke the bag!" when i punch on the 100lb bag i move the whole foundation which includes other bags.it goes "paaaaah". but with me i break the metal hooks right off the bag,i guess cause of the force i use when punching with power punches constantly

That's like hitting a slot machine.

The guy before you dropped 8000 quarters. You drop 2 and you win.

Yeah it happens. I've done it and a few other guys at the gym have done it. It would be more impressive if you could hit it back on the hinge!

Right on!! I've only done that once. It is more wear and tear then anything, however.

Yea done it a few times at the gym, jst the amount of punishment the bags and brakets take over time i think tho, burst a bag open once

i didnt mine with a week replacement of the hook. so wear and tear really doesnt always have stuff to do with it
