I purchased both the medium th-cam.com/users/postUgkxfh2XUOHWYHKQYOvSq2gZ6PyCmVkTFGWz and small speed bags from Meister. I'm very glad I got both as the workout is quite different from the two. The small is fantastic for getting your speed built up once familiar with your striking. The medium bag provides a considerable amount more resistance building more strength in your punches. I highly recommend both sizes.Some people have expressed concern over the latex bladder leaking down more frequently than the traditional rubber. I have not found this to be an issue at all.
Im getting one! Easy to fill and make super heavy from just water, sweet for the elements left outside and can use it for big bangs, cardio, all punches can combo on it, unlike a bag where uppercuts are limited, it moves nice for footwork and such too
Appreciate the vid dude, I'm a personal trainer working at home looking to get a bag mostly for the cardiovascular fitness aspect, and your vid sold me on getting the 120lb one.
Aqua bags are just buoys I'm here to argue with anyone over this lol, if you designed a water punching bag you've of made a bigger opening for the water
@@SENSEIJASON Thanks. The metal stand holding the bag looks quite simple but firm. I made my own but it moves and creates lots of creaks and not quite sustainable. Got lots of complaints for the creaking noise from my wife and the kids :))
Well bare fist is almost inaudible. I mean a bag was meant to hit, noise depends on how hard you hit the bag. If you want to muffle it however, just wrap a towel around the bag!
120 would be best if you are expecting to train long term. But if pricing and space is an issue, the 75 is no joke and can handle a good punch. It will give extra movement since it weighs less.
I'm really considering getting the 120 lb. Aqua bag I was lucky enough to get the 75 lb. Aqua bag from a friend for under $50 cause they didn't have any use for it
Brother if you have been boxing for a while, or training martial arts, you definitely need the heavier 120lb bag. You won’t regret it. My humble suggestion. But I can say it is pure awesomeness!
@@SENSEIJASON I use the 75 lb. Aqua bag at the gym I train at I like it but I feel you 120 lb. bag would be better I fight at 132 lbs I just need to get a heavy bag stand for it. I like your videos to
Haha for me personally I feel there would ultimately be not that much of a difference between the 120lb and the 190lb bag. The 120 lb, at least for me, is everything I want in a bag. But..that might be different for people way heavier than me, and that might have a completely different style of striking. However I’ve seen heavyweight on youtube doing good work with just a 75lb bag and even a head hunter the 35lb bag.
I am literally in the market for another Aqua bag for my set up. Good to be on your channel Jason- I have the 21 inch. I make it move but too low to roll under. I am thinking about going with lighter size-- just a hack, during winter i inject anti freeze inside them and still use it in winter outside and it doesn’t freeze but takes a lot of syringe of anti freeze
They are galvanized steel pipe (ends threaded) so that they may be screwed into position with the appropriate connecting attachments. It was actually built by my father more than 20 years ago i would say. Still strong as ever. I’m thinking about doing a DIY stand video. Only thing is I’m running out of space in the backyard LOL. Stay tuned it may come tho. Hope that at least have you an idea of how to put one together.
@@SENSEIJASON thanks man! This helps a lot. have you ever put a standard heavy bag on it and does the stand itself make a lot of noise? And do you think there’d be a max weight? Also, your vids are great. Really inspiring. Keep doing what you’re doing :)
@@angusferguson6393 My pleasure brother. Here is an unlisted video from my channel: th-cam.com/video/eniHfSdZMxk/w-d-xo.html (it’s semi private, only people with this link can access it.) So in the video I hang a standard Everlast heavy bag on it, probably no more than 80 lbs. But I can tell you for many years it was just used as a pull up bar in my backyard. The heaviest probably being some of my friends close to 200 lbs repping out pull ups with no issues. I would say the stand is fairly silent. Good flooring/mats make a huge difference and for added muffling you could lay sandbags over the base support pipes. But I just have the stand over some tile mats and they never shift or move. Also depends on the weight of the bag too I guess. I’m assuming the steel pipes if you were to buy them at your local hardware store should have a “load capacity” information with it. If not perhaps asking a store employee. But yea brother, let me know if you have more questions and I’ll give you my best answers. -Jason
@@SENSEIJASON hey man, thanks so much for answering. You have no idea how much this helps. I’ve got a heavy bag in my garage which hangs off one of the beams, but every time I hit the bag the whole garage makes a loud noise, and I don’t want to risk the entire shed coming down haha. I’ve been looking all over for a good stand but the affordable ones aren’t very good, and the good ones are way too expensive. You’ve really saved me, cheers!
Looks like you could use inch and a half galvanized pipe 3 8ft threaded pipes 2 Tee’s 4 3ft pieces 2 90 degree elbows and 2 caps. However 20 years ago this was fairly cheap. Today I could imagine it will be over $150 for all that material which is the price of a punching bag stand. It’s legit tho. You could also look into building one out of unistrut
The AQUA bag is only a supplement to the heavy bag. Heavybag gives a better feeling when hitting. I would go for the Aqua bag type in leather. Much better.. Minus with Aqua bag you can't hit body punches. Plus uppercut training. combinations. The advantage of the Aqua bag is it is much more gentle since it absorbs a lot of power. If you have damage problems, it can be good to use
They are very soft, I recommend their biggest bag the 190 lb since it had the most water making it the most absorbent. Pair that with 14oz gloves and you will be well protected! Here is my review on that bag: AQUA PUNCHING BAG REVIEW (21" 190 lb) 🔥💧 th-cam.com/video/hzyGmOj1AXc/w-d-xo.html
Rain will definitely not damage it. It is UV and rain resistant, it may be complicated if you live in an area where it snows. But a little anti freeze goes a long way I hear.
Hey I was wondering did you make that heavy bag stand by yourself? I’ve been looking to make one for myself but I didn’t like how I couldnt move around.
@@SENSEIJASON we need a diy explanation on this. Where he got the threaded plumbing for this and how he calculated the size needed to withstand the weight. Its dope!
Hey brotha! How long have you had this bag now and have you had any leaking issues? I’m one push away from ordering one on Amazon. Looking forward to your feedback and love the channel
I've had the bag over a year, and have let it outside (rain and sun) since then. Initially I actually got a defective bag that had tiny leaks in it, but the aqua bag representatives are very quick to replace or refund with no cost. I say go for it. You see so many professional fighters use it. I just recommend you inspect the bag when you get it, and after you fill it up, you make sure there are no defects. The earlier you can catch any defects or damage and report it to aqua bag company, they are very quick to respond and help.
For power shots how's the swaying on the 18" aqua bag? I'm looking at either the 21" or the 18" bag, but wanting one that won't sway too much. I appreciate the video bro!
For sure go with the 21” if your style is mainly power shots. For me I don’t really power up on my shots, unless I’m setting something up. I focus more on rhythm, footwork, and flow (with occasional power). The 18” will swing, but only when I tee off with power shots. Also consider I weigh 145lb around 5’7 Though I’m on the smaller side I can pack a heavy blow. So if you’re around my size 18 might not be bad. But if you wanted that extra insurance and weight, I’d go with true 21”
I want to get one of these to train cardio. I am no boxer and do not intend to get in to actual fighting, I just want the workout. Do you recommend to a beginner like me to wrap my knuckles and use full size gloves like training on a standard heavy bag?
Not speaking from experience but I'd be worried about kneeing it elbowing it or kicking it as it doesn't have the padding that your gloves have and could put more wear and tear on the bag. Maybe I'd do it once in awhile with shinguard or elbow or kneepads on.
Yo do you know the height, from bottom to top of the black part once filled? I'm trying to get the height of mine setup perfect before filling. Can't tell how it's going sit when deflated. Good review bro
Which one do you think is better for technique. Idk which one to get, the 18 inch one looks like you can really dig your punches in but it doesn't look like you can slip punches whereas the 15 inch one looks like you can't really dig your punches in but it works your defence and slips well. I've been doing boxing for about a year and already have a proper heavy bag. Great video btw
Hey brother! That’s great that you’re training. I think for technique the 15 inch may be more beneficial. Because of the slimmer and lighter nature of the bag, you’re punches will tend to be sharper and snappier. Both are fantastic, and perhaps one day if you feel like you want to size up, the 18 inch is always there. Here is a reference I’ll use to end off, if you like to hit the bag like Floyd Mayweather (Cadence, Rhythm, occasional power) I’d go with the 15 inch. If you like to hit the bag like Mike Tyson (power, tenacity, intensity) I’d go with the 18 inch bag. Hope that helps a bit! Cheers, Jason
@@SENSEIJASON Wow thanks for the detailed response! The reference was really useful. So underrated bro. You also responded to my other comment and that was nice. I am prob gonna go with the 18 inch just because I want to throw some proper power punches and maybe get a slip bag for head movement. Thanks for you information.
Does this come with a clip to put it on the bar you are using or is there an additional accessory to buy? If there is an additional purchase can you point me in the right direction? I own a similar bar. Thank you for the video
Before it was like a make-shift wrap around clip my dad put together, you are much better off investing in soft loop ties. I made a video about it here: th-cam.com/video/Vc39wB4er1I/w-d-xo.html
Those "Aqua bag" bags are rebranded Taylor Tuff buoys. I challenge anyone to convince me Im wrong. they are identical except for the colors. Taylor tuff buoys use the same filler port, come in same sizes, made in USA, and have the same exact pattern in the neck near the eyelet but are 1/2 the price. Your welcome..
@@SENSEIJASON no I totally get that, which is better if you're trying to be a real fighter anyway. I don't think anything can happen to a 120lb ball of water encased in thick rubber though, it just looks like it'd be really fun to hit hard lmao
Do you still use traditional heavy bags or have you replaced them with aqua bags? Just wondering if I should sell my heavy bag once my aqua bag arrives.
Well even heavyweights utilize the aqua bag head hunter which is way smaller than both the bags I showed. It’s all about technique and finesse. Especially if you are new technique and skill should be the priority. I feel like either bag would suit you. But if you have the space and willing to pay a bit more I’d go with the 120lb bag
Is this better than a heavy bag? I have a heavy bag 100lb in my garage gym but have been considering switching to an aqua. Is it better than a heavy bag?
Well, it's always good to have different bags. I like standard heavy bags, and I also like the aqua bags too. Just depends on your needs as a martial artist.
How wide is your stand? I have a 100lb standard heavy bag and it swings wayyy too much. Would this swing less than a standard 120lb bag? I was considering the 190lb aqua bag but imma have a problem mounting it. I weigh 160 and am a mid power puncher who likes to move around.
If you are experienced (1-2 years minimum) I’d go for the 18 inch (given you have the proper space and money). If you are kind of starting out, on a budget, and/or don’t have space, I’d go with the 15inch
Well I’m out in Cali, it hold up well outside. I’m not sure how well it does in extreme heat. What you could do is wrap a towel over it like it do, that may help
nice review man. Any tips on how high to hang the bag? It seems like you have the equator(middle) of the bag around your eye level when in boxing stance?
Hey my friend, your heavy bag is perfectly fine in my opinion. For me I got the aqua bag because some boxers I look up to frequently train on them. And also because of my personal fighting style. I love to throw uppercuts and work my movement around the bag. The aqua bag let’s me fully duck underneath which is something you cannot achieve on a standard heavy bag. Also uppercuts on a standard heavy bag will not be true uppercut motion.
Lol i used a jolly jump ball with a handle, that bag felt the soo deeum good on the hands but just broke it Cause i didn't have a good handle. And just used truck straps. But thank you J for the duoy idea ✊☝ you soild as heck
I just kept filling it up, I personally don’t fill a the way though, because subconsciously I have a fear that the bag will burst LOl. So I pretty much fill it all the way and let it drain a few seconds. This is intentional.
Aloha Jason, first off thanks for tutorial, it was very interesting and informative. I picked up both the 75lb and the 120lb. Just fyi, can I get the specs/info on your awesome stand please. Mahalo in advance and stay blessed.
I honestly can't say, I've never used a wrecking ball bag. Imagine the trajectory of your punches will be similar to an aqua bag, but the feel and power development maybe different.
I’m not too sure as far as a wall bracket, I don’t have experience in setting one up. But you definitely need to make sure your wall, and the bracket can handle a load capacity of 120lbs which is the weight of the 18” bag. I would say not too close not too far. If it hits the wall everytime you punch head on then that would be too close I feel. Hitting the bag from the sides will have no issue regardless of how close or far you position it.

I would say that strangely the 190 lb bag is softer. Maybe because there is more water in it.
But compared to a traditional heavy bag, the 120 lb bag still is much easier on the joints.

Are you trying to hit it that soft? If not, at least really rip a couple to show what it's capable of taking
I mean, that’s just not my style to throw bombs like a madman. I’m more into the sweet science the way Ali threw his punches.
@@SENSEIJASON no I totally get that, which is better if you're trying to be a real fighter anyway. I don't think anything can happen to a 120lb ball of water encased in thick rubber though, it just looks like it'd be really fun to hit hard lmao
If your question is, is the bag a tough durable bag? Yes my friend it is worth every penny.
@@SENSEIJASON i just ordered the 75lb one. Looking forward to using it, great review and video my guy💪🏻
All small buoy's are hard.i have the 9" aqua bag and it feels like I'm punching a brick.i come to realize the bigger the bag the softer it is.
Agree
🔥🔥👍
Great review and i like how you did a few quck punches at the end. Do you have a review for a 190 pound bag?
Yes watch here: th-cam.com/video/hzyGmOj1AXc/w-d-xo.html
Do you still use traditional heavy bags or have you replaced them with aqua bags? Just wondering if I should sell my heavy bag once my aqua bag arrives.
I still use traditional heavy bags. The one I have is only 50 lbs by everlast. So for me it is better to use the aqua bags.
how does it compare to Cleto Reyes Round Bag
I’ve never tried the Cleto Reyes Bag. So I can’t give you a real opinion. But the Aqua punching Bags are legit!
Hey i am unsure which bag to get cos i am new to boxing but am ft 6,6 245 pounds
Well even heavyweights utilize the aqua bag head hunter which is way smaller than both the bags I showed. It’s all about technique and finesse. Especially if you are new technique and skill should be the priority. I feel like either bag would suit you. But if you have the space and willing to pay a bit more I’d go with the 120lb bag
Is this better than a heavy bag? I have a heavy bag 100lb in my garage gym but have been considering switching to an aqua. Is it better than a heavy bag?
Well, it's always good to have different bags. I like standard heavy bags, and I also like the aqua bags too. Just depends on your needs as a martial artist.
Thanks for the review my guy
But him what’s the stand and where could I get one to hang my bag on
Here is my heavy bag stand video th-cam.com/video/4VEWOf9YoG0/w-d-xo.html
Sick review, just kicked off my boxing journal new sub let’s gooo 💪
Awesome thank you!
I bought one brother 💪🏽🙏🏽 good looks
Link for Bow Shackle please!
Im buying a black version of this. Aqua bags are the best bags for boxing since they feel realistic and you can do uppercuts on them. Absolute 🔥🔥🔥
You will love it brother! Hope it works out and let me know if you have any questions!
DIY bag is smart, good for slipping
How wide is your stand?
I have a 100lb standard heavy bag and it swings wayyy too much. Would this swing less than a standard 120lb bag?
I was considering the 190lb aqua bag but imma have a problem mounting it. I weigh 160 and am a mid power puncher who likes to move around.
Here is my DIY stand video, it covers much of your questions: th-cam.com/video/Iari4sKPYjY/w-d-xo.html
Let me know if you have further questions.
How do you pump air through the plug hole to make it round? I can't get any air to go through...
Try to fill it up to the max with water, and remove the nozzle and plug it up quickly, this usually gets the job done.
Whyd he say my name jason like he was introducing himself to the mexican wolverine?
Hmm I didn’t know it came off like that. Anyway how was the video, do you have any questions about the bag?

What’s your opinion on the 18inch compared to the 15inch bag? I’m trying to decide which one to buy. Thanks I’m advance.
If you are experienced (1-2 years minimum) I’d go for the 18 inch (given you have the proper space and money).
If you are kind of starting out, on a budget, and/or don’t have space, I’d go with the 15inch
@@SENSEIJASON 18” bag it is. Thank you for responding brother
I did a home made polyform 160lbs one it is legit you can get em cheap online
Thanks for sharing!
Is it weather proof? Cuz god knows how bad the heat is in Texas!!!!
Well I’m out in Cali, it hold up well outside. I’m not sure how well it does in extreme heat. What you could do is wrap a towel over it like it do, that may help
I got the blue one and it’s awesome! Probably get the orange 75 pounds one. How often should you drain them?
I haven’t drained any of my bags yet. I suppose only when you need to transport them.
hey bro tell me about that home made bag stand...looks awesome! how did you build it ? what materials? thanks ! great review !
Here is a video I made about it! th-cam.com/video/4VEWOf9YoG0/w-d-xo.html
👏👏👏
🙏🙏🙏
nice review man. Any tips on how high to hang the bag? It seems like you have the equator(middle) of the bag around your eye level when in boxing stance?
I’d say the equator should be a little higher than eye level, but my soft loop ties that I use to hang the bag, are bit longer than my preference.
@@SENSEIJASON cheers!
SENSEI NICE 🥋
Thank you brother as always! God bless!
-Jason
I just got a buoy don't need no colorful bag with a brand name but ya great bag
Nice! Hope you like it 🔥
Dude this is a really great review, definitely subbing
I appreciate that my friend! Thank you for watching and have a great day!
-Jason
I really want one but idk how much it will benefit me over my normal 5ft heavy bag
Hey my friend, your heavy bag is perfectly fine in my opinion. For me I got the aqua bag because some boxers I look up to frequently train on them. And also because of my personal fighting style. I love to throw uppercuts and work my movement around the bag. The aqua bag let’s me fully duck underneath which is something you cannot achieve on a standard heavy bag. Also uppercuts on a standard heavy bag will not be true uppercut motion.
Lol i used a jolly jump ball with a handle, that bag felt the soo deeum good on the hands but just broke it Cause i didn't have a good handle. And just used truck straps. But thank you J for the duoy idea ✊☝ you soild as heck
Thank you for the awesome comment brother! God bless!
@@SENSEIJASON Rock Steady ✊☝ for sure.
What sweat suit is that !
Shit I just realized you spoke on it
All good bro, best of luck with the bag!
Like the review
🔥🔥🔥
How were you able to get rid of the wrinkles on top of the bag??
I just kept filling it up, I personally don’t fill a the way though, because subconsciously I have a fear that the bag will burst LOl. So I pretty much fill it all the way and let it drain a few seconds. This is intentional.
That bag is literally 🔥
Thank you boss!
Those gloves looks elite, what's the brand?
Yokkao
Beasty bag..
Great bag!
that shot at 12 is really nice man good framing!
Thanks brother!
I just got a 120 @ goodwill for $4
Nice
Hey Jason.... thx for the review. Can i ask if there is any risk of the hook/buckle at the top of the bag rusting if i leave the bag outside? Thx.
You can always purchase one that is galvanized. Galvanization ensures it will not rust
Thanks!
I like the video Please where can I get your stand?
This stand is actually homemade by my father more than 20 years ago.
can aqua water bag be left outside like that?
Hell yes 🔥
Aloha Jason, first off thanks for tutorial, it was very interesting and informative. I picked up both the 75lb and the 120lb. Just fyi, can I get the specs/info on your awesome stand please. Mahalo in advance and stay blessed.
Thanks for watching bro! Here is a video I made about my stand th-cam.com/video/4VEWOf9YoG0/w-d-xo.html
Which bag do you like better?
I like the 75lb for warming up, the 120lb bag for going to town
How about the 75lb bag vs a wrecking ball bag?
I honestly can't say, I've never used a wrecking ball bag. Imagine the trajectory of your punches will be similar to an aqua bag, but the feel and power development maybe different.
Sweeeet!!
OSS!
nice review man gonna buy this now u got a great vibe too so u got a sub
Thanks fam keep it solid 💯
I was just deciding if I wanted a aqua bag looking at this I'm getting one. Thanks BRO
You got it man! Let me know if you have any questions! 🙏
@@SENSEIJASON 👌🏿bro
What gloves are you using pretty clean
Hey my friend! These are Muay Thai gloves by YOKKAO 🔥🙏
Hey brother did you make your own stand ?
My father built it over 20 years ago. Threaded steel pipe.
@jason Leung what will be a good bracket size? I’ve ordered the 18” bag but the bracket is only 42cm from the wall
I’m not too sure as far as a wall bracket, I don’t have experience in setting one up. But you definitely need to make sure your wall, and the bracket can handle a load capacity of 120lbs which is the weight of the 18” bag. I would say not too close not too far. If it hits the wall everytime you punch head on then that would be too close I feel. Hitting the bag from the sides will have no issue regardless of how close or far you position it.
@@SENSEIJASON thanks bro it says it can handle the weight just not sure if it hits the brick it will pop or get damaged
I see, yea i would say if the brick has any shape edges or corners, overtime it will wear out the vinyl on the aqua bag.
Where do you get the standard where the Bags ar hanging on?
Home Depot
What's the stand that you have holding it up?
Homemade stand, dad made it over 30 years ago
