Can you ask me why all these men are getting boy haircuts is it subconsciously that we still want to be boys in the societies eyes sorry to ask I just want to know😔
I’ll be honest this is the first video I’ve seen on your channel and when I looked down to subscribe I expected you to have a ton more subscribers. Really well done video. Thank you.
thanks for responding to my comments, and I agree, options are better, excuse me while I soak my hands in ice water after pummeling my 3 bags, a stand up bag, similar to yours, a spring loaded stand up timing bag, and a water filled uppercut bag. You re right, it s great thanks
Better comparison is Century WaveMaker XXL or new Torrent free standing bags. Fill with 300lbs of sand or water. Bags have proper file and don't get soft. Vinyl is durable, not cheap. Add heavy duty grip tape on bottom then place on exercise mat so it does not slide. $399, but I found a used like new one for $35 on OfferUp. Instruction: I use the Beachbody "Core de Force - MMA" video set.
Hope you love it! Not only was it a fantastic workout, it was entertaining and a fun way to mix up your exercise compared to some other more typical options.
Awesome! That one is near the top of the list! Have all the pieces and getting ready to start working on the script for the video! Stay tuned!!! Thanks Caitlin!
Thanks FightCamp! I have really enjoyed testing the product. Normally I sell a product after I am done reviewing it to get the next one... but I may have to keep this one!
I ve been boxing, mostly for fitness, for 40 years, using a similar, but low tech workout that you displayed. While I certainly encourage fitness for everyone, I am compelled to say that many of us in the boxing community have been doing this for many years , again, without the gizmos. A serious fighter or athlete in general will be shortchanged by what I saw. And you can save money just going to boxing catalogues and getting equipment at lower cost. when I actually did fight, as an amateur, I had a trainer, in a boxing gym, and sparred at least once a week. Now, I use youtube Nate Bower's Bowerbox videos, and set up bags outside. Of course, for the novice, this device can help and encourage fitness if you find it motivating. Otherwise, it will become a neglected piece of junk gathering dust.
When I get comments like this, I usually say something about how it is great to have options. You are right that people could go to an actual gym for that experience, they could use TH-cam and their own equipment, they could use FightCamp, and their are lots of other options. I just think it is neat that we have so many options today to help each person best match up the option for them. And I agree that plenty of people would not need the bells and whistles of FightCamp and could enjoy these other options. For those that like connected fitness experience and the motivation\content that comes with it, FightCamp could be great. Options!
Hi Travis, thank you for the video. I’m thinking about getting bag but not sure if it’s high enough. Do you think the bag would work with my height 6’3”?
I am 6'3" and it worked great for me. Now, keep in mind, I am not a serious boxer by any stretch of the imagination. This was a way to use boxing for cardio and it did that well for me. I hit it really hard and it took it.
Thanks Alex! Looking forward to my FightCamp on a budget video down the road a little because I think a lot of people could still get a lot out of this without getting the full FightCamp setup.
That would be nice for a content only experience, but you would not be able to get data from the sensors. I want them to create a console (think roku like device) that outputs to the TV but also can get sensor data plus have the power to maybe add some new features.
Appreciate it! I am hoping a FightCamp 2.0 will come out with more tracking and better integration to TV but still a very fun, unique, and engaging workout!
You are so lucky!! Peloton, Tonal, and now Fight Camp ! Do all these companies send you free stuff to promote them? I am jealous. I have a peloton and really enjoyed your video about it. It helped me decide to purchase it. Tonal I want but too $$. Fight camp seems more affordable than most programs, but I am looking forward to your cheaper version video. Can’t wait to see it. Ty!!
Thanks Jenny! Benefit of running a home gym equipment review channel is you built up a nice home gym! No one provided any of the equipment, bought it all myself. Started with the Peloton and slowly saved to get the Tonal. 😃 Glad to hear you are excited about the fight camp on the cheap video! I will try to get to that one sooner than later! Thanks Jenny!
th-cam.com/video/DkmAND0Ai4o/w-d-xo.html But check out what their apps supports these days. I had heard rumors that they shut down certain things. Maybe download the app and make sure you can get to content.
Another option is used gear. Lot's of Karate schools open up and while good martial artists they are poor business operators and eventually close. So you can often find commercial grade punching bags, mats, and other equipment lightly used for real cheap.
Hello. Just want to ask what if i only needed the bag and dont want to have tracker or subscriptions? And do i need to buy the stabilizer so the bag wont be moving?
I think it depends on the floor you have the bag on. I did not have the stabilizer but my floor is pretty grippy. It still moved a little so it probably would not have hurt but I did not have to have it.
Nothing beats an in person coach. They’re there to correct every wrong movements. However my coach has stopped correcting me to focus more on his favorite babies so I’m thinking about switching to this after my contract expires. Ass coach! Great video btw. Thank you.
Thanks! This has more of a boxing cardio for people new to boxing vibe. Not sure if you would like it or not. I wonder if your skill level would be too much for this product...
Well, you are paying for the connected fitness part of it but with how many other quality options have came out, I don’t know if this is the value out there either. Depends on your interests and what is going to best help you reach your health goals.
I'm torn between FightCamp or Title - Like I go to Title boxing, but I'm looking for at home workouts now that i'm busy. The one thing is I'm not sure which one out of the two will have the best workout materials
I have not used Title. Maybe reach out to FightCamp and see if they have a way to test their product and get a feel for it before you invest? Unfortunately, you now have to buy their trackers so you can't just log into it and check out the content.
I am pretty sure this video was created before dribble up was an option. I would not say they are the same. Dribble up you have to stay in camera view where FightCamp has sensors and allows you to move more and enjoy the experience a bit more. Regardless, considering the price difference a lot of people would probably get plenty out of dribble up and enjoy keeping money in the bank.
Lol - well, my point is it works off the camera watching you so you have to be in view, right? I am not knocking it. We just got the basketball version for the kids and we all love it.
My wife got them a while back and I have no idea from where. I tried to look them up for you but could not find much. Maybe this will help: www.amazon.co.uk/ClutchFit-Force-2-0-Mens-Black/dp/B00ZAIPXIG
Does anyone have advice concerning pets? I feel like my cats would think this is their new post to scratch up! Does not look easy to store in another room. Is there an Apple TV app??
Thanks man, I was trying to figure out if the trackers measured strength. You just potentially saved me 1400 bucks. Maybe theyll upgrade the equipment at some point
Can you not just cast the video to a Chromecast rather than having to use that lightning to HDMI cable?? I cast peloton app and others up to my tv all the time.
Hi Travis. Thanks for the review. You helped me with my Peloton decison, so good to see over here in the Fightcamp reviews. This product looks good but is the heavy bag component much better than other options? Trying to work out wheather I'll mock up with separate components - the punch counters/apps tech is cheaper elsewhere. Corner sell a product in the UK. Thanks again.
Hey Themba! To be honest, I am new to the boxing\kickboxing game so I have not really tested other products. The Fight Camp product held up really good and I was happy with it but I have to imagine their are other options out there that would perfect very well. I have purchased an alternative (less expensive) standing bag that I plan to test shortly. Keep an eye out as that may help you with your decision!
I am honestly not sure because they have been offering the membership for free to help people out during COVID. I will try to keep an eye out and figure out how this works.
Question: is the bag small apartment (600 sq. ft) friendly? I'm scared to go to the gym, so I brought a Keiser (m3i) that I plan to use w/the Peloton digital app. I don't have a lot of space left in my apt but I want another piece of equipment. I am considering getting the Mirror but this looks good too. How big is it?
Hey Angel! First, nice bike! The FightCamp is probably a little under 6' tall. I am 6'3" and I probably had 5 to 7 inches on it or so. As far as room required to use it, I would say you would probably want at least 6 feet on either side as you go from side to side. You need enough room to have your distance setup so you can kick and punch from the right location. Hope that helps!
@@Learnwithtravis Thanks for responding. Your response was super helpful. I don't think it's going to fit in my apartment but it's a nice piece of equipment. I guess I better stick to the Mirror.
I'd love to know your FightCamp on the cheap alternative! I have a Wave XXL bag just like this one, but looking for a good program/video to follow. Any recommendations?
Looking to get started on that video very soon! It will be based on different methods to use the FightCamp app\content with purchasing your own gear. As you have gear, I would suggest downloading the FightCamp app and giving it a shot with your current setup. I would also figure out how to cast it to your TV as that makes it much easier to follow along! Thanks Bryan!
@@Learnwithtravis Thanks and looking forward to that video! I guess I didn't realize you could do just the app. I don't care too much for the sensors if they cost $500 plus the additional $30/month for the workouts. I should be able to Airplay the app to my Apple TV. Thanks again!
For IOS only? Are they High? Anyways I would love for someone like you to Look into Virtuix, its supposed to be a new way to move and jump while playing games via VR. You'd be perfect to recieve and review something like that. I really wish they could in cororate similar tech like it to Exercising.
My guess is as a start-up company they have a limited budget and could only afford to build out one app initially. Just a guess though. Just looked at the Virtuix and will see what I can do! Thanks Frank!
What do you think would happen to the bag if you punched it with full power ? I’m worried about the bag moving around when I throw power shots. (Intermediate boxer)
First, I filled it with water. If I used sand, I think it would be a lot better. Second, I have it on gym rubber floor which helps it stay in place. With that said, when I am really hitting it, it does move. Nothing crazy and I find as long as I circle the bag I can keep it where I want it. If I keep hitting from one side, I am eventually going to move it where I don't want to be. But I don't consider it a problem. It only moves a little so circling around when I can see I have moved it a bit is no big deal. I think I saw a video where they put a ring around the base (FightCamp Video I believe) and that would secure it even more. Add sand to that I think it would work very well. Hope that helps!
Don’t they encourage technique? Like, “make sure you keep your chin tucked and your hands near your chin”? I used to train and teach Karate. I later joined kickboxing and BJJ. Technique is extremely important, especially if you want to feel more confident in a street fight. Good job on the video, anyway. I’ll consider buying this.
They do but someone is probably trained might feel like it is more beginner level. While this is a great product, I would say it is marketed to beginners that want a new fun way to get exercise\cardio. Not trained fighters looks to enhance fighting skills. Not that is cannot be used in that way, but I would not want you to be disappointed coming from a background with training.
@@Learnwithtravis lol nothing bad at all , it’s just people are normally intimidated from the size of other people. When really they are cool to be around, even soft spoken at times.
@@DoloMissionz Haha, I figured that is what you meant. It really is a good description of me and I have been called it more times than I can remember. I take it as a complement! :) Thanks Dolo!
I’m looking into buying this setup. Can you share about glove size? On the norm I use size large but sometimes depending it could be a medium but snugged. Just not sure. Thank you
I can go check if you want specifics but my package came with three sizes. Kids, medium, and large. I use the large. I am currently 6'3" and 220 LBS if that helps you out. I want to say the sizes were 14 and 16 ounces but let me know if you would like me to verify. Hope that helps!
I believe so as long as you have Airplay compatible devices and a strong WIFI connection. support.joinfightcamp.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002190154-How-to-stream-FightCamp-to-a-TV
Awesome! Was thinking about picking this up for Christmas. My only concern is the $39 per month subscription considering they only offer prerecorded materials. Do you happen to know if there’s any “offline” content available if you were to stop your subscription, or are you just left with a punching bag? I couldn’t find the answer on their site.
Would be interested in seeing you do a review of the Nexersys and/or comparison of it to Fight Camp. I imagine 5 years from now there will be some pretty amazing products out there.
@@jasonbugg4429 Added it to the list! Hopefully I will be able to get it as it does look like a great workout. And I think you are right. In 5 years there are going to be so many next level products out there. Fun times!
Item looks great. And can’t wait for your cheaper version. How would compare with Mirror or Echelon’s version of “Mirror” to this? Since those two offer boxing workouts but can do a lot more as well as their price.
I will be honest and say I have not looked into the "mirror" options too much at this point. But, from what I gather with the mirror you are going to have more options or variety, but no bag to hit. So, I think the question is do you like to mix it up and have different options or do you want to get the full boxing experience but less variety. Not having used the mirror my opinion could completely change after using it, but I don't care for the you never really do anything. You have a video and people tell you want to do but you don't ride a real bike, you don't have a resistance system, and you don't have a punching bag. I would rather train\exercise against real equipment. With FightCamp, you are not shadow boxing, you are hitting and kicking a real bag which I think would be much more enjoyable and also a much better workout. so, that is my off the top of my head take, but if variety is what keeps you coming back and working on your health, the mirror could be the better option!
I do agree. I really like FightCamp and am willing to use the phone - adapter - TV solution to use the product... but they could do a lot of things to really enhance this solution end to end.
Hi I was wondering if you know how many people can work out with the ongoing membership fee? Do you have to pay for each member of the family? Do each member downloads the app in their own devices? I loved your review!
If you go to to their website, they have section that breaks down FightCamp vs traditional boxing gym and it says up to 5 users. Thanks Laynie! joinfightcamp.com/shop/products/fightcamp-personal/
Really great review! I'm looking forward to seeing how to do fight camp on the cheap as I've looked into the app in the cost and it does add up. You have me more excited about investing in this product, although I might have to wait until it is available for Android. Great video appreciate your hard work.
Thanks Rich God! Really appreciate it. Looking forward to the FightCamp on a budget video because there are a lot of ways you can go about it. Have a couple other videos lined up first and then will be getting back to FightCamp!
Great video, thanks for making one that’s both informative and efficient. Do the trackers work without the bag? I’m thinking of buying the trackers and wraps but only punching air since my apartment isn’t big enough for the bag.
No problem and thank you! I don't think the trackers work without a bag. I am pretty sure they work by detecting impact or abrupt change of speed\impact and without a bag, they probably would not work. But... it it is not all about the trackers. You could put boxing gloves on and still follow the content. It would not be quite the same, but you could get a solid workout.
Fightcamp does have options without the bag, I believe the trackers will still come with it. But as Travis said it won't work without the bag but you can still shadow box and follow the workouts.
Yeah, I don’t think that number is based on much. I could be wrong but I don’t think it factors in actual power of punches. It also does not utilize heart rate. Obviously from my video, I like FightCamp. I am just pointing out that I think they could still make it better and I am excited about its potential.
LearnWithTravis actually it IS based on power, velocity and volume. Theres a deeper discussion in the Facebook FightCamp community group. Check out this post -support.joinfightcamp.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002655733-What-is-the-Ouput
Hey Travis. Just curious if you still use this thing? I already have the Tonal and the Stryde bike, but kind of thinking of finishing my home gym with a fightcamp haha.
I sold it... but not because of the product. I broke my foot and did not feel comfortable jumping around the bag or kicking it. I actually really liked FightCamp, but there were some parts that take away from the experience. I didn't like that the solution has to pair to an iPhone or iPad and then be sent to a TV through your own solution. Personally, I had problems with this from time to time and once you get the gloves on, this can be annoying. I am hoping their next gen product has a device that manages the trackers, outputs to TV, and uses voice commands. It would make the experience so much smoother. That being said, as far as rounding off the Stryde\Tonal trifecta, it is really nice. It is a different type of workout and engages your body in a way neither of the other two do and is a whole different style of cardio. I really enjoyed going between those three options. Overkill... maybe, but fun, awesome, and solutions that really complement each other for a full body workout... yup.
@@Learnwithtravis Awesome input! Thank you so much! I think I will hold off for now... My plan was getting the swivel adapter for the Stryde and using that tablet for the fightcamp screen, but considering that its only iOS, that may not be the best option. I didn't even think about how annoying it would be to have to take the gloves off to fix something too. I think I will wait for a better implementation of it and besides, the Stryde and Tonal are definitely keeping me busy already and I really love them!
You could hit it from only one side but I like to circile around it and keep me legs working. With that said, you need enough room for you with your arm out and the bag plus a little room to bounce around. So it sort of depends and I am guessing but maybe a 6 x 6 space. Obviously more room will help you feel less restricted but I think you could probably make that work.
Yeah, you could use the content without trackers... just need punching bag and gloves and put the content on your tv. You would miss out on tracking but still get the enjoyment of the exercise. Maybe that helps? 😀
I am not sure what they recommend but anything with a little grip helps. The smoother the floor and the more it wants to move. I had rubber gym floors which really helped. I filled mine with water but if I ever did it again, I would do half sand and half water.
Honestly, I broke my foot shortly after making the video which meant I would not be able to use the product for a long time. I decided to sell it to make room for other products I could review. I really liked the content and type of workout. It was a very fun change of pace from other forms of cardio. The integration or being a true connected fitness device had some room for improvement. It can only go on Apple devices and you sync or share your phone to your TV. This is a much more manual process and I had problems from time to time. I really liked it, and enjoyed it while I used it. But if they made a version two with certain improvements, it could really enhance the enjoyment factor.
Well I hope you didn’t break your foot using this?! I used to go to a gym that had bags. The instructors had awesome music and the workouts were freestyle (i.e. no strict format like ilovekickboxing or some of those other places). I get bored easily and like when they switch things up. I was only asking because I”m trying to decide if I should go with FightCamp or just get my own free standing bag and do my own thing…which would obviously be cheaper. Anyways, thanks for the response :) I appreciate it and hope you’re fully recovered too!
Completely unrelated (playing tennis). Yeah, there is a good TH-cam channel for following along and mixing it up while keeping the price down. FightCamp is neat solution if you want a packaged deal. Best of luck with your decision!
I don't have FightCamp anymore so my info is a little dated. They did charge a monthly subscription fee but I believe waived it for a while. Not sure if they are back to it or not, but I would plan to pay a subscription fee with this. But to be safe, reach out to them and see what they say.
When you're kicking, you should really pivot your foot, preferably on the ball of your foot. Trust me from experience, when you're kicking without actually turning your foot, you can easily damage your knee and/or ankle and twist some muscles that'll hurt.
I am not the best example because I bounce from product to product depending on what I am testing for TH-cam Videos. But... I can say that it was a really good workout. Not only was the cardio high but the way you move your body helps build strength and use a lot of stabilizer muscles.
Thank you for this Travis! I’m giving myself til the end of the month to purchase it. But will wait to see what you come up with. Do you find yourself using this often?
Well... I was actually really enjoying it and planning to use it a lot, and then I broke my foot shortly after that video went live. I have been stuck in a boot since and no idea when I will be allowed to do exercise like this again. So, while I have not used it much, it has nothing to do with how much I liked it!
@@Learnwithtravis I broke, well, sprained, my foot while kickboxing. A year later it was still healing. 4 years later and I still get really uncomfortable twinges here and there BUT I can kickboxing again!
@@Causeimbored1 That is great to hear! First, glad to hear you are mostly back at it! Second, I am excited to use the FightCamp but have not been able to do it yet. Gives me hope that I can return to it!
Hello, I just want to ask if is it still loud every time you throw punches it bounces, drags on the floor? I’ve been contemplating of getting one in my bigger apartment. I’m just concerned even though I have a foam under the carpets plus this mat included... but i feel like I might end up returning them if I get noise complaints 😩
Hey Mitch. As far as exercise goes, it does not move around much... but I have gym flooring which keeps in place. Honestly, and I hate to say this but I am guessing you would get noise complaints. The product is great and does not move much but it is heavy and you really knock it around. So even though it doesn’t move much, I still think people right under you would hear it. Sorry!
LearnWithTravis I appreciate the prompt reply! I really miss kickboxing. I’m just one click away from ordering this one... but, oh well..thanks for the brutal truth! Lol
Independent. I had water in mine but I believe you can put sand or a mixture into it to weight it down a lot better. I think they might sell a ring that goes around the base as well to help but not sure.
Did you plug a lightning cord from the device to power? Once I did that mine worked fine. You are the first comment saying it did not work so I am curious.
In my opinion it is more of a alternative cardio option for those that would like to use boxing\kickboxing to get exercise. While you do learn some moves\combos\techniques, it is nothing like actual training to be an actual fighter. More for exercise than learning to be a true boxer.
What do you think of FightCamp?
Can you ask me why all these men are getting boy haircuts is it subconsciously that we still want to be boys in the societies eyes sorry to ask I just want to know😔
It look good and cool
I seen an ad about it and I needed to know more about this
@@ajsks917 It is a fun unique way to get exercise!
@@Learnwithtravis thank u for the great reviews keep up the great work
I’ll be honest this is the first video I’ve seen on your channel and when I looked down to subscribe I expected you to have a ton more subscribers. Really well done video. Thank you.
Thank you so much David. I truly appreciate that. I have been working hard at improving so It is nice to hear it is noticed! Have a good one!
Don’t forget to pivot your left foot when you are kicking with your right leg or you can damage your knee. Looking forward to the next budget video.
thanks for responding to my comments, and I agree, options are better, excuse me while I soak my hands in ice water after pummeling my 3 bags, a stand up bag, similar to yours, a spring loaded stand up timing bag, and a water filled uppercut bag. You re right, it s great thanks
Better comparison is Century WaveMaker XXL or new Torrent free standing bags. Fill with 300lbs of sand or water. Bags have proper file and don't get soft. Vinyl is durable, not cheap. Add heavy duty grip tape on bottom then place on exercise mat so it does not slide. $399, but I found a used like new one for $35 on OfferUp.
Instruction: I use the Beachbody "Core de Force - MMA" video set.
Thanks Kent!
I just got mine for 500 with the conditioning kit Large and medium gloves matt and bag with 300lbs of sand in it
Nice! Enjoy it!
I ordered it for Christmas. I can't wait to try it after watching your video.

This is great for getting kids active. Especially for the homeschool parent

I agree with you. Anyone who wants to start some sort of boxing exercise should go to a boxing gym before they do their own thing at home.
Fight camp is more for the average person,9-5ver, college student, stay at home wifey who just doesn't have time to go to the gym.
Right. Never meant for professionals trying to go next level. A way for regular people to get exercise in a new and exciting way.
Meh you are trying to pass your opinion off as fact
That bag is incredibly light weight. Yeah the base is heavy when filed but the bag is less than 20 lbs and moves a lot with even small force.
I always do shadow boxing before workout because even you have muscle but still lose in fight what is the point for that is my opinion
Beast mode! Thanks for the review!
Thanks Tommy! Super neat solution and excited for what the future can bring!
Hi Travis, thank you for the video. I’m thinking about getting bag but not sure if it’s high enough. Do you think the bag would work with my height 6’3”?
I am 6'3" and it worked great for me. Now, keep in mind, I am not a serious boxer by any stretch of the imagination. This was a way to use boxing for cardio and it did that well for me. I hit it really hard and it took it.
Great job with the video! Definitely going to have to pick one up if the price tag ever decreases
Thanks Alex! Looking forward to my FightCamp on a budget video down the road a little because I think a lot of people could still get a lot out of this without getting the full FightCamp setup.
The most obvious solution to using your phone, is for Fight Camp to create a TV app, so you can run it from your smart TV, Roku, Fire stick etc.
That would be nice for a content only experience, but you would not be able to get data from the sensors. I want them to create a console (think roku like device) that outputs to the TV but also can get sensor data plus have the power to maybe add some new features.
Thank you Travis!!!
My pleasure Dana!
I’m so looking forward to the cheap version!
😃 th-cam.com/video/DkmAND0Ai4o/w-d-xo.html

Nothing wrong with that. Enjoy
Definitely interested on fight camp on the cheap. I already have a heavy bag, but would love to get stats on my punches.
th-cam.com/video/DkmAND0Ai4o/w-d-xo.html
But check out what their apps supports these days. I had heard rumors that they shut down certain things. Maybe download the app and make sure you can get to content.
I loled at the boxing glove vs the phone shot. The struggle is so real
Isn't it! 😀
Another option is used gear. Lot's of Karate schools open up and while good martial artists they are poor business operators and eventually close. So you can often find commercial grade punching bags, mats, and other equipment lightly used for real cheap.
Good idea!
Hello. Just want to ask what if i only needed the bag and dont want to have tracker or subscriptions? And do i need to buy the stabilizer so the bag wont be moving?
I think it depends on the floor you have the bag on. I did not have the stabilizer but my floor is pretty grippy. It still moved a little so it probably would not have hurt but I did not have to have it.
Nice video! Have you tried the iPad app and had a different experience?
I have not but I will give a quick test and report back!
Nothing beats an in person coach. They’re there to correct every wrong movements. However my coach has stopped correcting me to focus more on his favorite babies so I’m thinking about switching to this after my contract expires. Ass coach! Great video btw. Thank you.
Thanks! This has more of a boxing cardio for people new to boxing vibe. Not sure if you would like it or not. I wonder if your skill level would be too much for this product...
@@Learnwithtravis I don’t think so. I’m quite new to boxing.
Get a new coach
liked and commented for the heads up on
its really good but the price...
is $1,000 a good price for a punching bag?
Well, you are paying for the connected fitness part of it but with how many other quality options have came out, I don’t know if this is the value out there either. Depends on your interests and what is going to best help you reach your health goals.
I enjoyed this a lot Can you please post an update video 🙌🙌
Will try to see if much has changed. Thanks Nick!
You can use amazon fire tv stick and stream directly onto your tv
Very nice! Thanks for sharing!
I'm torn between FightCamp or Title - Like I go to Title boxing, but I'm looking for at home workouts now that i'm busy. The one thing is I'm not sure which one out of the two will have the best workout materials
I have not used Title. Maybe reach out to FightCamp and see if they have a way to test their product and get a feel for it before you invest? Unfortunately, you now have to buy their trackers so you can't just log into it and check out the content.
Dude you can get the same with dribble up..it has the sane technology as well
For under 100 dollars
I am pretty sure this video was created before dribble up was an option. I would not say they are the same. Dribble up you have to stay in camera view where FightCamp has sensors and allows you to move more and enjoy the experience a bit more. Regardless, considering the price difference a lot of people would probably get plenty out of dribble up and enjoy keeping money in the bank.
@@Learnwithtravis wrong with dribble up you can move around too..I kmow.i own one and returned my fight camp because of ot
Lol - well, my point is it works off the camera watching you so you have to be in view, right? I am not knocking it. We just got the basketball version for the kids and we all love it.
@@Learnwithtravis it works either way my dear..I ordered the strength ball...boxing gloves are still a way better option but hey you due you
Where did you get the UA shoes from?
My wife got them a while back and I have no idea from where. I tried to look them up for you but could not find much. Maybe this will help: www.amazon.co.uk/ClutchFit-Force-2-0-Mens-Black/dp/B00ZAIPXIG
How much does it cost to use the connect app workouts? What is Included if opt out from app purchase?
Sorry, would have to ask them. I have not had that product for a while.
amazing product discluding the 1000 pound/dollar pricetag
The bags too short...should of been at least 6 feet tall...the website mentions that its only 5'7
I am 6'3" and felt I was able to use it just fine but maybe taller would be better.
Does anyone have advice concerning pets? I feel like my cats would think this is their new post to scratch up! Does not look easy to store in another room. Is there an Apple TV app??
My cat never touched mine... not sure how to prevent it though...
Why not install this on your Cycle bike tab or use an Chromecast tv (if it’s availabl on there)
Thanks man, I was trying to figure out if the trackers measured strength. You just potentially saved me 1400 bucks. Maybe theyll upgrade the equipment at some point
Glad to help! If they do it right, a gen 2 version of this could be amazing.
3:29 I liked the video 😂
Lol, thank you for liking and dealing with my terrible jokes!
@@Learnwithtravis thanks for the review.
Can you not just cast the video to a Chromecast rather than having to use that lightning to HDMI cable?? I cast peloton app and others up to my tv all the time.
Most likely. I don’t have that setup to test but I imagine it would work just fine.
Omg in laughin so hard at your punches and I kicks. - the kids did great though
I was serious when I said I have never done it before! 😊
Hi Travis. Thanks for the review. You helped me with my Peloton decison, so good to see over here in the Fightcamp reviews. This product looks good but is the heavy bag component much better than other options? Trying to work out wheather I'll mock up with separate components - the punch counters/apps tech is cheaper elsewhere. Corner sell a product in the UK. Thanks again.
Hey Themba! To be honest, I am new to the boxing\kickboxing game so I have not really tested other products. The Fight Camp product held up really good and I was happy with it but I have to imagine their are other options out there that would perfect very well. I have purchased an alternative (less expensive) standing bag that I plan to test shortly. Keep an eye out as that may help you with your decision!
@@Learnwithtravis Fair, thanks I'll look out for the new vid. This bag does look solid though.
Ok I gave you a thumbs up. Can I just buy the sensors and use my existing bag and gloves?
Yup. Make sure that comes with the wraps. They have little pockets to put the sensors in.
@@Learnwithtravis perfect. It looks fun for sure. Thanks alot
If you ever decide to not have the membership anymore is it useless or can you still use some of the punch count features and do your own workouts?
I am honestly not sure because they have been offering the membership for free to help people out during COVID. I will try to keep an eye out and figure out how this works.
Question: is the bag small apartment (600 sq. ft) friendly? I'm scared to go to the gym, so I brought a Keiser (m3i) that I plan to use w/the Peloton digital app. I don't have a lot of space left in my apt but I want another piece of equipment. I am considering getting the Mirror but this looks good too. How big is it?
Hey Angel! First, nice bike! The FightCamp is probably a little under 6' tall. I am 6'3" and I probably had 5 to 7 inches on it or so. As far as room required to use it, I would say you would probably want at least 6 feet on either side as you go from side to side. You need enough room to have your distance setup so you can kick and punch from the right location. Hope that helps!
@@Learnwithtravis Thanks for responding. Your response was super helpful. I don't think it's going to fit in my apartment but it's a nice piece of equipment. I guess I better stick to the Mirror.
Great review
Thank you Sylvie!
I'd love to know your FightCamp on the cheap alternative! I have a Wave XXL bag just like this one, but looking for a good program/video to follow. Any recommendations?
Looking to get started on that video very soon! It will be based on different methods to use the FightCamp app\content with purchasing your own gear. As you have gear, I would suggest downloading the FightCamp app and giving it a shot with your current setup. I would also figure out how to cast it to your TV as that makes it much easier to follow along! Thanks Bryan!
@@Learnwithtravis Thanks and looking forward to that video! I guess I didn't realize you could do just the app. I don't care too much for the sensors if they cost $500 plus the additional $30/month for the workouts. I should be able to Airplay the app to my Apple TV. Thanks again!
For IOS only? Are they High?
Anyways I would love for someone like you to Look into Virtuix, its supposed to be a new way to move and jump while playing games via VR. You'd be perfect to recieve and review something like that.
I really wish they could in cororate similar tech like it to Exercising.
My guess is as a start-up company they have a limited budget and could only afford to build out one app initially. Just a guess though. Just looked at the Virtuix and will see what I can do! Thanks Frank!
3:30 well done. Just because of that I did.
Haha! Thank you. Both for hitting the like button and dealing with my weirdness! 😂
Does Google chrome work to put it on the screen?
I believe it is IOS app only right now.
What do you think would happen to the bag if you punched it with full power ? I’m worried about the bag moving around when I throw power shots. (Intermediate boxer)
First, I filled it with water. If I used sand, I think it would be a lot better. Second, I have it on gym rubber floor which helps it stay in place. With that said, when I am really hitting it, it does move. Nothing crazy and I find as long as I circle the bag I can keep it where I want it. If I keep hitting from one side, I am eventually going to move it where I don't want to be. But I don't consider it a problem. It only moves a little so circling around when I can see I have moved it a bit is no big deal. I think I saw a video where they put a ring around the base (FightCamp Video I believe) and that would secure it even more. Add sand to that I think it would work very well. Hope that helps!
Great video.
Thanks SAFETAC Training!
Do I have to pay a monthly on top of purchase equipment?
Been a while since I played with FightCamp but I believe so.
Don’t they encourage technique? Like, “make sure you keep your chin tucked and your hands near your chin”?
I used to train and teach Karate. I later joined kickboxing and BJJ.
Technique is extremely important, especially if you want to feel more confident in a street fight.
Good job on the video, anyway. I’ll consider buying this.
They do but someone is probably trained might feel like it is more beginner level. While this is a great product, I would say it is marketed to beginners that want a new fun way to get exercise\cardio. Not trained fighters looks to enhance fighting skills. Not that is cannot be used in that way, but I would not want you to be disappointed coming from a background with training.
Ok. I liked it it.
Glad you liked it
Now I see what my coaches meant by “Gentle Giants”
Not 100 percent sure what you mean, but I have been called that more than once... so I guess it fits.
@@Learnwithtravis lol nothing bad at all , it’s just people are normally intimidated from the size of other people. When really they are cool to be around, even soft spoken at times.
@@DoloMissionz Haha, I figured that is what you meant. It really is a good description of me and I have been called it more times than I can remember. I take it as a complement! :) Thanks Dolo!
I’m looking into buying this setup. Can you share about glove size? On the norm I use size large but sometimes depending it could be a medium but snugged. Just not sure. Thank you
I can go check if you want specifics but my package came with three sizes. Kids, medium, and large. I use the large. I am currently 6'3" and 220 LBS if that helps you out. I want to say the sizes were 14 and 16 ounces but let me know if you would like me to verify. Hope that helps!
Could you have just used Airplay to avoid the hardwire connection?
I believe so as long as you have Airplay compatible devices and a strong WIFI connection. support.joinfightcamp.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002190154-How-to-stream-FightCamp-to-a-TV
Awesome! Was thinking about picking this up for Christmas. My only concern is the $39 per month subscription considering they only offer prerecorded materials. Do you happen to know if there’s any “offline” content available if you were to stop your subscription, or are you just left with a punching bag? I couldn’t find the answer on their site.
Would be interested in seeing you do a review of the Nexersys and/or comparison of it to Fight Camp. I imagine 5 years from now there will be some pretty amazing products out there.
@@jasonbugg4429 Added it to the list! Hopefully I will be able to get it as it does look like a great workout. And I think you are right. In 5 years there are going to be so many next level products out there. Fun times!
Item looks great. And can’t wait for your cheaper version. How would compare with Mirror or Echelon’s version of “Mirror” to this? Since those two offer boxing workouts but can do a lot more as well as their price.
I will be honest and say I have not looked into the "mirror" options too much at this point. But, from what I gather with the mirror you are going to have more options or variety, but no bag to hit. So, I think the question is do you like to mix it up and have different options or do you want to get the full boxing experience but less variety. Not having used the mirror my opinion could completely change after using it, but I don't care for the you never really do anything. You have a video and people tell you want to do but you don't ride a real bike, you don't have a resistance system, and you don't have a punching bag. I would rather train\exercise against real equipment. With FightCamp, you are not shadow boxing, you are hitting and kicking a real bag which I think would be much more enjoyable and also a much better workout. so, that is my off the top of my head take, but if variety is what keeps you coming back and working on your health, the mirror could be the better option!
Is there a way to buy the bag only?
I believe so. Have a look through the comments because I am pretty sure a couple people pointed out the name it is sold under.
you got a like because you asked so nicely
Haha! Love it! Thanks Jerry!
They seriously need a better option than the mobile app, with all the money people spend on this. It’s kind of a fatal flaw.
I do agree. I really like FightCamp and am willing to use the phone - adapter - TV solution to use the product... but they could do a lot of things to really enhance this solution end to end.
Hi I was wondering if you know how many people can work out with the ongoing membership fee? Do you have to pay for each member of the family? Do each member downloads the app in their own devices? I loved your review!
If you go to to their website, they have section that breaks down FightCamp vs traditional boxing gym and it says up to 5 users. Thanks Laynie!
joinfightcamp.com/shop/products/fightcamp-personal/
😂😂😂 you really couldn’t help it!
That’s totally me with the phone loading a vid mid workout and trying to press play again but without having to take my gloves off 😂
Haha! Anything to not have to take the gloves off!
Really great review! I'm looking forward to seeing how to do fight camp on the cheap as I've looked into the app in the cost and it does add up. You have me more excited about investing in this product, although I might have to wait until it is available for Android. Great video appreciate your hard work.
Thanks Rich God! Really appreciate it. Looking forward to the FightCamp on a budget video because there are a lot of ways you can go about it. Have a couple other videos lined up first and then will be getting back to FightCamp!
Do they have kick trackers? Or are all strikes are punches?
No, just punch trackers. That would be neat though!
First ☝️ thing about fight camp is don’t talk about fight camp!
🤐
has he made a video on a cheaper way to do this? i’m looking for it
th-cam.com/video/DkmAND0Ai4o/w-d-xo.html
Great video, thanks for making one that’s both informative and efficient. Do the trackers work without the bag? I’m thinking of buying the trackers and wraps but only punching air since my apartment isn’t big enough for the bag.
No problem and thank you! I don't think the trackers work without a bag. I am pretty sure they work by detecting impact or abrupt change of speed\impact and without a bag, they probably would not work. But... it it is not all about the trackers. You could put boxing gloves on and still follow the content. It would not be quite the same, but you could get a solid workout.
Fightcamp does have options without the bag, I believe the trackers will still come with it. But as Travis said it won't work without the bag but you can still shadow box and follow the workouts.
4:30 There is a way to see your output
Yeah, I don’t think that number is based on much. I could be wrong but I don’t think it factors in actual power of punches. It also does not utilize heart rate. Obviously from my video, I like FightCamp. I am just pointing out that I think they could still make it better and I am excited about its potential.
LearnWithTravis actually it IS based on power, velocity and volume. Theres a deeper discussion in the Facebook FightCamp community group.
Check out this post -support.joinfightcamp.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002655733-What-is-the-Ouput
Thanks AP S! I will check that out when I get home!
Can you use airplay to stream it to TV?
I have not tested it but according to their website you can. support.joinfightcamp.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002190154-How-to-stream-FightCamp-to-a-TV
Hey Travis. Just curious if you still use this thing? I already have the Tonal and the Stryde bike, but kind of thinking of finishing my home gym with a fightcamp haha.
I sold it... but not because of the product. I broke my foot and did not feel comfortable jumping around the bag or kicking it. I actually really liked FightCamp, but there were some parts that take away from the experience. I didn't like that the solution has to pair to an iPhone or iPad and then be sent to a TV through your own solution. Personally, I had problems with this from time to time and once you get the gloves on, this can be annoying. I am hoping their next gen product has a device that manages the trackers, outputs to TV, and uses voice commands. It would make the experience so much smoother. That being said, as far as rounding off the Stryde\Tonal trifecta, it is really nice. It is a different type of workout and engages your body in a way neither of the other two do and is a whole different style of cardio. I really enjoyed going between those three options. Overkill... maybe, but fun, awesome, and solutions that really complement each other for a full body workout... yup.
@@Learnwithtravis Awesome input! Thank you so much! I think I will hold off for now... My plan was getting the swivel adapter for the Stryde and using that tablet for the fightcamp screen, but considering that its only iOS, that may not be the best option. I didn't even think about how annoying it would be to have to take the gloves off to fix something too. I think I will wait for a better implementation of it and besides, the Stryde and Tonal are definitely keeping me busy already and I really love them!
@@silverwolf9237 No problem and I think that is a good choice. If they come out with a next gen system, could be fun! Regardless, nice setup!!!
🏋🏽♀️🔥
Thanks Ace!
How much space do you need to use it?
You could hit it from only one side but I like to circile around it and keep me legs working. With that said, you need enough room for you with your arm out and the bag plus a little room to bounce around. So it sort of depends and I am guessing but maybe a 6 x 6 space. Obviously more room will help you feel less restricted but I think you could probably make that work.
How loud is it? Can you use it in an apartment?
It can be a little loud as the boxing gloves hit the bag. Probably depends on location and far away from neighbor walls you are.
I would love this but it’s so expensive 😭 even just buying the trackers is $440 plus the $40 /month membership
Yeah, you could use the content without trackers... just need punching bag and gloves and put the content on your tv. You would miss out on tracking but still get the enjoyment of the exercise. Maybe that helps? 😀
@@Learnwithtravis can you buy just be bag and the gloves? If so how much do they cost?
@@BobRoss-wm3lc If you go to their site, you can see the packages but all packages include the trackers which are required to use the app now.
Do they recommend a certain type of floor and how heavy did you fill yours to
I am not sure what they recommend but anything with a little grip helps. The smoother the floor and the more it wants to move. I had rubber gym floors which really helped. I filled mine with water but if I ever did it again, I would do half sand and half water.
Do you still recommend this workout? What are the classes like (I.e. is there music, different options like freestyle vs instructional)?
Honestly, I broke my foot shortly after making the video which meant I would not be able to use the product for a long time. I decided to sell it to make room for other products I could review. I really liked the content and type of workout. It was a very fun change of pace from other forms of cardio. The integration or being a true connected fitness device had some room for improvement. It can only go on Apple devices and you sync or share your phone to your TV. This is a much more manual process and I had problems from time to time. I really liked it, and enjoyed it while I used it. But if they made a version two with certain improvements, it could really enhance the enjoyment factor.
Well I hope you didn’t break your foot using this?! I used to go to a gym that had bags. The instructors had awesome music and the workouts were freestyle (i.e. no strict format like ilovekickboxing or some of those other places). I get bored easily and like when they switch things up. I was only asking because I”m trying to decide if I should go with FightCamp or just get my own free standing bag and do my own thing…which would obviously be cheaper. Anyways, thanks for the response :) I appreciate it and hope you’re fully recovered too!
Completely unrelated (playing tennis). Yeah, there is a good TH-cam channel for following along and mixing it up while keeping the price down. FightCamp is neat solution if you want a packaged deal. Best of luck with your decision!
Is the app a monthly subscription? A lot of fitness apps are free but you have to pay monthly.
I don't have FightCamp anymore so my info is a little dated. They did charge a monthly subscription fee but I believe waived it for a while. Not sure if they are back to it or not, but I would plan to pay a subscription fee with this. But to be safe, reach out to them and see what they say.
When you're kicking, you should really pivot your foot, preferably on the ball of your foot. Trust me from experience, when you're kicking without actually turning your foot, you can easily damage your knee and/or ankle and twist some muscles that'll hurt.
Thanks for the tip!
Are you any fitter for using it?
I am not the best example because I bounce from product to product depending on what I am testing for TH-cam Videos. But... I can say that it was a really good workout. Not only was the cardio high but the way you move your body helps build strength and use a lot of stabilizer muscles.
I wish it tracked the kicks
Yeah, if they ever make a version 2.0, there a handful of improvements they could do to really take this to the next level.
I would buy this if it came with a bikini super model round card flasher
Might be version 2. Not sure.
get a smart TV that supports Multicast and no need for adapter
Good point. So many options for casting to TVs today.
Thank you for this Travis! I’m giving myself til the end of the month to purchase it. But will wait to see what you come up with. Do you find yourself using this often?
Well... I was actually really enjoying it and planning to use it a lot, and then I broke my foot shortly after that video went live. I have been stuck in a boot since and no idea when I will be allowed to do exercise like this again. So, while I have not used it much, it has nothing to do with how much I liked it!
@@Learnwithtravis I broke, well, sprained, my foot while kickboxing. A year later it was still healing. 4 years later and I still get really uncomfortable twinges here and there BUT I can kickboxing again!
@@Causeimbored1 That is great to hear! First, glad to hear you are mostly back at it! Second, I am excited to use the FightCamp but have not been able to do it yet. Gives me hope that I can return to it!
Hello, I just want to ask if is it still loud every time you throw punches it bounces, drags on the floor? I’ve been contemplating of getting one in my bigger apartment. I’m just concerned even though I have a foam under the carpets plus this mat included... but i feel like I might end up returning them if I get noise complaints 😩
Hey Mitch. As far as exercise goes, it does not move around much... but I have gym flooring which keeps in place. Honestly, and I hate to say this but I am guessing you would get noise complaints. The product is great and does not move much but it is heavy and you really knock it around. So even though it doesn’t move much, I still think people right under you would hear it. Sorry!
LearnWithTravis I appreciate the prompt reply! I really miss kickboxing. I’m just one click away from ordering this one... but, oh well..thanks for the brutal truth! Lol
@@mitchangela425 Sorry!!!
Hi is this a sponsored review? Or independent? Also can you make the bag very very heavy so advanced kickers arent kicking it all over the place?
Independent. I had water in mine but I believe you can put sand or a mixture into it to weight it down a lot better. I think they might sell a ring that goes around the base as well to help but not sure.
I purchased the lightening digital AV adapter based on your review and it didn’t work. Reviews, including mine now will not be good.
Did you plug a lightning cord from the device to power? Once I did that mine worked fine. You are the first comment saying it did not work so I am curious.
Airplay?
I believe other have commented about using it with success.
Can you display this on the tv using Apple TV?
I don’t have an Apple TV to test but it seems like AirPlay/screen mirroring would work. You could download the app to test before buying.
Is everything in the app as in like the videos free? Or would you have to make an account and pay
Account and monthly fee. I know that is a bummer but it costs money to create the content, app, host it, produce it...
Why does that bag cost so much?
It is expensive but I think the trackers they include in the package are a big part of it.
How tall are you
6'3"
How much this?
joinfightcamp.com/
I boxed with a professional for three years. The bag should in no way move around the way it did when you hit it!!!
does it teach you how to box?
In my opinion it is more of a alternative cardio option for those that would like to use boxing\kickboxing to get exercise. While you do learn some moves\combos\techniques, it is nothing like actual training to be an actual fighter. More for exercise than learning to be a true boxer.
