Gallant 6ft Boxing Bag Free Standing Punch Bag Adult - Max Strike 360 - Heavy Duty Punching Bag Dummy, Excellent for Punch Kick - Kickboxing Mixed Martial Arts MMA Home Gym Exercise Equipment

I decided to buy this to practice my strikes for Muay Thai and even Kendo. I was dubious about this because the base chassis looked very big in some of the review videos I've seen, however I was pleasantly surprised it was small enough so that I can move around it. It's definitely 6ft as I stand at 166cm so it's definitely got the height I want to practice against, especially in a small space I haven't got any concerns this will be hitting the ceiling unless your ceiling is smaller than 6ft in distance from the ground in which case tough luck. The leather itself is pretty darn good, there's a good level of resistance whilst it still does react to the blows you can give it. The targets are a seriously good addition and some people may just want to focus on strike points rather than unga-bunga on the bag. The sturdiness is there and especially since I practice Muay Thai, this does get a very huge beating. It's not a heavy bag by any means but it's got enough in there to assist conditioning whatever you wish. I filled this up with water and for the most part it does stay quite level. It doesn't move around much and you've also got suction cups if you want to ensure there's a level of stability there. If you're really worried about these freestanding bags moving about use 80% and 20% sand or just fill it halfway with sand - it won't be moving otherwise. The assembly was very simple, it came with all I needed including an extra set of screws washers in case any go missing - it's simple as plotting the bag into the chassis and then screwing it down. If you're like me who has no space to keep it indoors, you can store it outside and just ensure every now and again you lube the metal parts to prevent rusting (WD-40 or mineral oil works fine). The markings of the targets are coming off slowly but that's just general wear and tear and I've yet to come across any problems with this. Definitely a worthy investment if you cannot get a hanging bag, and a great alternative to the Wavemaster XXL which arguably this product rivals that. For the price I got it for at about £140, I'm thoroughly satisfied. NOTE: The delivery is split up into two different deliveries because of size and weight constraints so just be aware of that when you do purchase this. Now go out there and keep on training.

After a long and frustrating search , I managed to get myself this wonderful piece of kit. At first I was a bit nervous after reading the mixed reviews; but then took a chance in view of the affordable price ( compared to other websites). Having been using it for about two weeks now , I can honestly say I have no regrets. I am back into my Taekwondo kicks and punches. My kicks are getting heigher, aimed and power is measured. It is very sturdy but do require a little bit of patience to set it up properly. It took me 30 mins to set it up including filling the sand which was unfortunately wet. I had to buy a saw(for one pound ) and make the hole bigger as the damp sand would not filter in the hole...see pictures. It was all well worthy. I filled it with 8 x 15 kg sand and it was fully packed and sturdy !! I did not put water as it might wooble as per other reviews ! The product was meant to be delivered on Saturday , but was so surprised when it arrived 5 days early !! Really impressed with delivery . Very happy so far as this 6 feet punch stand is perfect for high/low kicks.

The stitching on the bag is good, and a lot better than I anticipated. Hoping this will make it last. The leather looks decent quality too. The bag can be removed from the base, so you can keep the bag indoors during bad weather (if you’re using it outside). The base is wide enough to provide reasonable sturdiness, but narrow enough to be able to get close to the bag and work on the inside. This was one of my worries when purchasing, but thankfully it’s not a problem at all. The only bad point for me is the filling up of the base. I used water, and it still moves somewhat when punching. I use it outside and keep it in a shed when not using it, so filling with sand and making it so heavy that I can’t move it isn’t an option. I can push it myself when it’s filled with water, but I don’t think this would be possible with sand. Even so, the amount of sand you would need would be extremely expensive

Really happy with this. Far more sturdy than I expected and it’s a good price compared to other similar products. Filled with sand it can take everything I throw at it. I trained in boxing for about 6 years in the past, and though I am now badly out of shape, I can still hit fairly hard. It wobbles occasionally but doesn’t fall down. It also takes combinations well, which I found is not the case with other freestanding punch bag (e.g. bob etc.) that I end up knocking down after a few punches in succession. The only thing that will knock it over is a high push kick (expected as it’s a push rather than an impact). Bag is nice and solid in construction too. Overall this has really exceeded my expectations.
