    Double end bag alternatives

    Hello, are there any good alternatives to the double end bag? I am unable to install one in my home and my gym is closed down. Maybe one of those reflex balls with the tennis ball hanging from a string? I own many of these, but would it give me similar results to the double end bag? Let me know any other alternatives as well.
    Thanks

    I've been fooking around with one of those tennis ball string hat deals & idk that that's a great replacement for a double end bag. That feels more like some sorta free range almost speed bag-ish type thing to me.

    Idk that there is a great replacement for a double end bag. Maybe one of those standing reflex bags, but if you're in a apartment & can't install a double end bag I assume a reflex bag brings up the same problem.

      I just bought a choff brand Cobra Bag off Amazon and so far so good.

      Look it up, its called a:

      KUQIURW Reflex Bag

      I paid about $80. It comes with a bunch of lil suction cups on the bottom, which isnt bad if u are using a slick floor. I added a 45lb weight to the bottom because mine is on concrete and it works well.

        Sh^t he can hook up a double end bag with an anchor weight if thats doable where he lives. I assumed it wasn't, but maybe I assumed wrong.

          The anchor weight is what I'd like to do.

            From my experience, double end bags are extremely flexible in where you can set it up. I take one camping with me and hook it up to a tree branch and a 20L Can of gasoline. In my gym right now I have it anchored with three old brake rotors from my truck.

            If you really want the most out of a double end bag, why not get a Mexican peanut style DE bag?
