Since they’re a lot simpler in design, hanging punching bags are generally cheaper than their free standing alternatives. Especially if you don’t have to buy a stand for them. But even when you have to buy a heavy bag stand, the combined price is often cheaper than the price of a free standing bag. This narrow base makes moving around the bag a breeze, with your biggest trip hazard reduced. It can be filled with water or sand to create a sturdy foundation on which the bag can sit. Sand is heavier, making it more difficult to punch the bag over, but water will make it easier to push the bag to one side when you have finished training.

Still, if your set-up allows for it, hanging punching bags are a great choice for using outdoors. Especially if you’re handy with a toolset, or just have a place to conveniently hang it from (like a beam or a sturdy tree branch). 4.3. Hanging Punching Bag Stands Even though it’s made of synthetic leather, it’s very durable. In fact, in this case being made of synthetic leather is preferable. This is because synthetic leather is extremely resistant to water. Add to that the fact that the bag doesn’t have any openings in it (as the straps are stitched onto it), and you’ve got a great, water-resistant punching bag. It even comes pre-filled, so you can start using it right away. Eliminates the boredom of striking a punching bag while improving your hand-eye coordination by giving you a person as a target - while helping extend the life of your punching bag.

Get a large tarpaulin, and cover your heavy bag once you’ve finished your workout for the day. Make sure the tarpaulin is made of PVC, vinyl, polyethylene or some other waterproof material. Overall, the Century Wavemaster is a really high-quality free standing punching bag at a very reasonable price point. So if you’ve got the budget, I’d definitely recommend it! If you have to store your punching bag outside, there are several things you can do. 3.1. Use a Punching Bag Cover Meet the I-Perskin a seemingly ordinary-looking punching bag cover that comes to life the minute you switch it on. Equipped with LEDs, sensors, and a microcontroller, the I-Perskin makes training more effective by giving you actual targets to punch. Strategically-placed zones on the punching bag light up, and switch off when you land punches on them. The sensors measure your speed, force, and reactivity as you lay blows, and the companion app gives you a detailed breakdown of your training rep, telling you exactly where you need to improve. It isn’t as dramatic as a training montage from Creed, but it quite effectively gets the job done without requiring a trainer be present.

The 4in1 adjustable speed bags feature a traditional speedball, rotating arm, hanging ball & centre bag, ideal for developing different areas of your combat, speed & combination training.In terms of the stability, it’s got a very wide base. So even if you don’t have a smooth surface for the suction cups, it’s not the end of the world. See, the suction cups stand on long prongs that serve to widen the base even more.

It’s also important to cover the entirety of the punching bag so that there’s no way for any water to get inside of it. For one, it can allow you to adjust the height of your heavy bag. Something which is much harder if you just have it hang from a tree. Also, there are some punching bag stands that also have an attachment for a speed bag. Which can really enhance your workout. NARROW, STABLE BASE - Narrow bases are often considered to be less stable than wider bases, but once filled with sand, this is no longer the case! The narrow base also makes it easier to move around the bag, so you can bob and weave without tripping over! The canvas material of the punch bag cover can be wiped down with a damp cloth and can be machine washed. The elastic rubber band makes the cover easily foldable, and with its compact size, it is always ready for use whenever needed.If you’re looking for a more affordable free standing punching bag, then this RDX Punching Bag Set is a very good choice. It’s very durable for the price, and easy to set up. It’s also water resistant, which is a great thing if you plan to leave your bag outdoors. But just like the FITVEN, if you don’t have a hard, smooth surface, those suction cups aren’t going to be very useful.

Another problem is rust. Most heavy bag stands are made of metal, and if you live in a humid area, you can expect that metal to get rusty over time. This is why I recommend you use an anti-rust spray or paint on your heavy bag stand. Personally, I recommend Hammerite. It’s originally made for ships. I’ve used it before, and it’s never let me down. You can even use it to paint over rust that’s already formed. The best thing about hanging punching bags is that they’re very sturdy. No matter how hard you punch them, there’s no chance of them falling over, like free standing bags sometimes do. For those of us who might find the Everlast 70-Pound MMA Heavy-Bag Kit a tad too heavy on the wallet, the Last Punch Heavy Duty Punching Bag steps into the ring as a formidable contender when it comes to hanging punching bags. It may have a somewhat modest size, but it more than compensates with its user-friendly filling process and commendable durability, particularly considering its budget-friendly price point. A major con is that it can break during particularly intense workouts. So, while it may be a good option for beginners, I wouldn’t recommend it for advanced fighters.
