Unless you visits frequently a boxing training gym, the words punching bag creates a picture of a large hanging mass akin to a strung-up sand bag. In reality, punching bags come in various shapes and sizes, and not all of them are hung from the ceiling.

Punching bags are remarkably effective workout tools, but are often ignored outside of boxing and martial art training. Most people, even fitness enthusiasts, do not pay enough attention to this simple equipment than can revolutionize the way you work out.

Punching bag training routines excel at burning off excess calories. They are great for boosting cardio-vascular health. They promote blood flow and strengthen the heart while also working on more muscles that any amount of time on a treadmill or exercise bike would. This leads to a marked improvement in both upper and lower body strength. It also helps improve hand-eye coordination, which is essential for fine motor skills and can significantly impact your lifestyle outside the gym. This aspect becomes even more important as people begin to age.

Working out with a punching bag can also have some unexpected advantages. A punching bag can be a good way to let off steam. A session with a punching bag will leave you stress-free and ready to face the challenges of life again. It is always better to sweat out your anger than act on it. With a punching bag, you get the double benefit of also getting a thorough workout.

The most common punching bag is the hanging heavy punching bag, as mentioned earlier. Some hanging bags can also be attached to a wall. This is effective for special training and some workouts but restricts how many of them you can do compared to a free-hanging bag. The other heavy bag is the standing punching bag, which as its name suggests, is essentially a bag mounted on a stand. A standing punching bag can be moved around the room or out in the yard. The ideal weight of a heavy bag is between 50-70 pounds for an average male adult. Weight and material may be varied for individual preferences and requirements. They come in various designs and shapes.

Other punching bags like uppercut bags and speed bags are designed for special training or workout sessions. They are great for a boxing gym or martial arts training center, but find little use in a home gym. Double ended bags resemble a football strung to the floor and the ceiling. This is commonly used for practicing counter attack and defence moves. It requires a fair bit of floor space for effective use.

All kinds of punching bags are readily available at fitness equipment stores as well as online. Purchasing a bag online does provide some additional advantages. An online store, unlike a regular one, can afford to stock a far larger inventory, multiple brands, and various models. You can also buy a bag from a foreign country if it is not available locally. Regardless of the size of the order, you can have it delivered to your doorstep. If you are a professional or a gym owner, you can also place bulk orders or work out a special deal.
