I've worked out on traditional heavy bags th-cam.com/users/postUgkxp9-sf95nqfjey-uyzxUzQ7m9MXRPK1BE a spherical stuffed "wrecking ball" bag, and now this thing. What I like about it is that it has the heft to stay largely in place so I'm not chasing it around. It's tall enough to allow for headshots and body shots, but it's short enough to give an uppercut somewhere to land. I'm very happy so far. Filling it was a bit of a cluster. For top-offs, I've learned that you can screw the supplied nozzle onto any basic plastic water bottle. I can't speak to durability as I've only had it a week.
Video looks like it was posted a while back. Over time how is this holding up? I would like to do the same but would have to cut into the ceiling. Only want to do that once. Thanks for the video!
Because of the placement of where I wanted the bag to hang, I needed to split the difference. Additionally, I liked the idea of spreading the load across two joist. Those were the only reason.
Curious what the length of the spring is roughly? Looks to be about 5 or 6 in but hard to tell in a video. My basement has a rather short ceiling... like 7 ft or so and if the bag hangs too low it won't be ideal for me to swing on. Just trying to get ideas and get my bag set up better. Currently hanging from center support with some basic rope until I find a set up that I like. Yours looks legit
@@mikedadike420I have a low basement ceiling as well so I went with a Seleware steel beam mount vice using a the joist. The spring for sure drops the bag about 5 inches so that's a downside, but a good boxing stance is knees bent a little so the lowered bag forces you to hold good form. Heavy shots are still heard upstairs. Hope this helps.
@sherlock1469 I mounted a 110lb title bag to the load bearing beam in the basement using a Seleware heavy duty steel beam mount and not the wooden joist. The spring drops the bag by about 4.5 inches so it sits a lot lower and not perfect but usable. Heavy shots can be heard upstairs for sure. I dismount the bag when not in use.
Ok so i have a 10 feet Unistrut channel with trolleys on it to hung a 90lbs punching bag and 70lbs round punching bag to roll them out of the way.. Should I bolt the unistrut channel straight to the garage ceiling joist or should I bolt down a 2x4 or 2x6 board first to ceiling then bolt down unistrut Chanel to board?? I want to use channel for the 2 punching bags, rings and a climbing rope. My ceilings are 8ft high. Thank u Also what kind of bolts should I use and do I need washers too?
Would this 2x6 board and exact same mount/hanger be strong enough to hold a 150lb - 200lb heavy bag? I bought this same mount/hanger, but not sure if I'll be able to hand a heavier bag between the 150-200lb range. Did you have great success with this setup?
I would think so or you could use a 2x8 board as long as it's spanning between two joist it's no heavier than a 200 lb person standing on the joist above.

I think you could get many years out of this outdoors.
Spring is necessary for boxing bang

Thank for the question. I haven't had any issues. The bag is still hanging strong!
This was the key info we needed. Thank you 🙏
Nice straightforward video
Would you post a link to the mounting kit you bought?
Is there a reason why you just didn't screw in right into the joist? You are putting screws through it regardless.

@@GearChaseTubearen’t those just made of plywood too?
@@juansaldierna3350 Are you referring to the joist, cross member, or beams?

Oh and your tutorial and video is done nicely. Short simple and to the point with all the info needed. Good job brotha

Great video! How is the sound transfer on the mainfloor when using the bag? also does it shake the house using this method as well?
waiting for his reply hopefully he answers

Is a spring needed or can i use a chain?
The spring takes a little sting off the bag as a chain is much more ridged.

Why didn't you use thicker piece of wood
That's what I was thinking
And thicker/ stronger hooks
The smaller ones snap easily if you're punching heavy

What kind of wood screws did you use
They are lag bolts that were included in the purchased kit.
