Hello,
I hope this is the correct place to post this so here i go:
Since i live in a dormer i can't hang up a Heavy Bag since it probably takes the roof down with him when i hit it to hard.
So now i've looked into some standing boxing bags but i have no clue what the better/durable brands are for standing bags.
One of my old trainers in the gym i was says some good things about WaveMaster but i found it pretty expensive (it's almost €390 / $550 here).
I found some and like to know what are the pros and cons about them and if anybody has some personal experience with them.
Here is a handful of Standing Heavy Bags I can buy:
Will update the post with some pictures when i have 15+ posts
If there are other brands that are good, i look if i can get those in my country.
- Taurus Standing Heavy Bag
€230,-
Taurus Box-Man 'Trainings partner'
€280,-
Taurus Standing 'Reflex'heavy bag
€350,-
Hammer 'Trainings Parner' (named) Perfect Punch
€388,-
WaveMaster XXL
€388,-
Century BOB - Body Opponent Bag
€388,-
They also have some Everlast and Lonsdale bags.
-------------
I put the prices with it since my next question will be:
Is the price difference between the WaveMaster and other standing bags worth it? (around €150,- to €100,- in difference).
It's a lot of money for me, so what is better about the WaveMasterXXL? Or in other words; what can i do more with it than a regular heavy standing bag?
And those torso-like 'bags', I know they are good for technique and accuracy but can you go 'all out' on it like on a real heavy bag or will it just fall down?
And I can't find much info about the quality of Taurus, is it any good?
Also can't find a site, only thing i find is the Taurus brand for guns etc.
And for those who have used a standing bag before, is it advised to put a rubber mat under it? Even when filled with sand?
------------
Some info:
I have trained a couple of years 'for fun' boxing, or Recreational Boxing as they tend to call it here.
Both of the trainers i trained with left the gym and now there is some guy who knows **** about teaching, so i quit the gym (came out better since in have not much spare time) and am looking for a bag to train at home.
For the reason above i can't use a hanging Heavy Bag otherwise i would use the same as the gym.
Do regular boxing, no kick boxing.
If any information is needed, please let me know.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thank you
