Different Types of Heavy Bags for Boxing

Video Transcript

So this would be a good bag for using with speed because if you hit it really hard, it's going to go flying. But if you snap it with just quick, quick strokes, working on speed it's not going to bounce around as much. So this would be a good one for speed. The next heavy bag we have over here is a little bit heavier bag. It's about an eighty pounder. And again using the half you weight, this could be a good one for a hundred and sixty five pounder, middle weights, and above. It's hung a little bit higher than the others because it's more used for the bigger persons, but it's also a good one to be used for when you do your three rounds of power. Okay, you've done the average workout on the average bag, you've done the work with just the speed on the smaller bag, and now you're going to be working for power. So this one is not going to move as much, as you can see but it's going to be a good one to work with, just power punches. The fourth bag that we have here at the gym, is certainly not a staple in most gyms. I'm very, very proud and excited to have one. Everybody was excited as we got it. This one is basically a hook and uppercut bag. It doesn't have the bullet type shape as most heavy bags do, and it's more used for uppercuts and, also hooks. You know, hooks to the body, you know, hooks to the head. But it's also a heavier bag so it can be used for your power three rounds as well. But it is a little bit tricky so we try to keep everybody off of this until they've had a few lessons on it. It's very easy to get hurt using the uppercut features of that bag. Thank you.
