Free Standing Punch Bags
For many the option of owning a punch bag is compromised by the fact that they can take up such a large amount of space in a room, however there is an alternative to the more traditional punching bags and this comes in the form of a freestanding punch bag. This makes for an ideal solution for all those who do not have a large area going spare in their homes. There are various types of free standing punch bags, including both free standing tube trainers and free standing torso punch bags. This page features the freestanding punch bag tube trainers and freestanding torso punch bags, including the ever popular Slam Man.
Choosing a Free Standing Punch Bag
Basically there are a couple of key points to take a look at when choosing a freestanding punch bag. Firstly check for the material used in the inner core, ideally this will be stated as high density durable foam, with the outer layer either made from leather or durable PVC. Also make sure that the base weight is over 150lbs to provide a reliable level of stability. Generally they fill with sand or water, the choice being yours. This makes for an easy way to keep it rooted to the floor without the use of any nuts or bolts and allows for a level of versatility that may be hard to find with from anything other than a free standing punch bag.
