T<strong>he next best option is synthetic leather or durable vinyl.<\/strong> The least favored material type is canvas which tends to sweat and is the<strong> roughest on your hands and feet.<\/strong> Canvas can also tend to punch up and produce soft and heavy spots on the bag, which you do not want.<\/p>\n<p>There is all manner of interior fillings for punching bags, ranging from clothes to cotton and high-density foam. <strong>High-density foam is preferred as it will have the best shock absorbency.<\/strong> You will also want to look for a bag that has a zipper on the top that allows you to add or take away filling to suit your requirements.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"tab-con-20\">Bag and Base Weight<\/h4>\n<p><strong>You need to get a good balance between the weight of the free standing punching bag and the base.<\/strong> If one of them is too light, the whole thing may fall over, which will be very annoying when you are trying to<strong> get a fluidity going in your workout.<\/strong> On the other hand, if it is too heavy, the bag will not provide you with the reflex and bounce back that you need.<\/p>\n<p>Your bag should weigh about half of your body weight. <strong>So, if you weigh 180 pounds, you should look for a bag that weighs 90 pounds.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4 id=\"tab-con-20\">Portability<\/h4>\n<p>A great advantage of the free standing punching bag is that is can be moved around. For that reason, you should look for a free standing punching bag <strong>that allows for ease of movement.<\/strong> That means that it should have transport wheels so that you can easily move it out of the way when you are finished with your workout.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"tab-con-20\">Durability<\/h4>\n<p>The free standing punching bag that you buy should last for <strong>many years to come.<\/strong> Check out online reviews of other users for longevity.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"tab-con-20\">Easy to Fill<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Some bags come pre-filled but others need to be filled when you get them.<\/strong> That means that you will need to put either sand or water into the base before you can use the punching bag. They will have a small opening at some point on the base to accommodate the fill. Check reviews to see how easy this fill process is.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"tab-con-20\">Adjustable Height<\/h4>\n<p>Ideally, you will want your free standing punching bag to be<strong> adjustable in terms of height<\/strong>. This will allow you to customize it for your specific requirements. Beyond that, it will allow the bag to be used by all of the members of your family.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"tab-con-20\">Warranty<\/h4>\n<p><strong>You want a bag that carries a multi-year warranty. <\/strong>A free standing boxing bag comes in for a lot of abuse and you don&#x2019;t want your base or exterior material to give you problems after just a few months.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"tab-con-10\"><span id=\"benefits-of-free-standing-punching-bag\">Benefits of Free Standing Punching Bag<\/span><\/h2>\n<h4 id=\"tab-con-20\">No Set Up<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"width: 100%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width: 100%;\" title=\"Benefits of Free Standing Punching Bag\" src=\"\/\/garagegymbuilder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Benefits-of-Free-Standing-Punching-Bag.jpg\" alt=\"Benefits of Free Standing Punching Bag\" width=\"300\" height=\"282\" data-id=\"33222\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>A major advantage of the Free standing punching bag is that you do not have to go to the trouble of <strong>putting up a chain and hooking up the bag to it.<\/strong> You simply roll it into place, fill the base with sand or water and you&#x2019;re ready to go. A lot of people do not have access to an overhead beam to hang a bag from. <strong>Others are in rented accommodation and are not permitted to make holes in the ceiling. For these situations, the free standing punching bag is the answer.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4 id=\"tab-con-20\">Space Efficient<\/h4>\n<p>The free standing punching bag has space benefits over the hanging bag, largely <strong>because of its ability to be moved.<\/strong> A hanging bag is there for the duration, whereas a free standing boxing bag can be <strong>used and then stored away.<\/strong> That being said, there is quite a space requirement for this bag<strong>b You will need an area of around 6-7 feet to operate effectively.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4 id=\"tab-con-20\">Multi-Purpose<\/h4>\n<p>The free standing punching bag is a longer bag than the traditional chain hung bag. This allows for more versatile training so that you can train for Muay Thai and other martial arts disciplines as well as traditional boxing training. The standing heavy bag is also a<strong> more versatile cardio training tool<\/strong> because you can make better use of your legs.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"tab-con-20\">Cost Saving<\/h4>\n<p><strong>You will save money in the long run<\/strong> if you opt for a free standing punching bag because you will not have to pay for mounting hardware.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"tab-con-11\"><span id=\"conclusion\">Conclusion<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>The best free standing punching bag<\/strong> on the current market is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.Alpha XR\/Century-Wavemaster-XXL-Training-Black\/dp\/B000EZWPM2\/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;linkCode=sl1&amp;tag=ggbus-20&amp;linkId=4ad4bff218658d8092ce999b5baec1b1&amp;language=en_US\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-identifier=\"B000EZWPM2\" data-locale=\"US\" data-localize=\"y\" data-localized=\"waiting\" data-tag=\"ggbus-20\" data-title=\"Century Wavemaster XXL Training Black\">Century Wavemaster XXL<\/a>, which has a <strong>high-density foam filler, large striking surface, and choice of color options.<\/strong> Our second favorite free standing heavy bag is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.Alpha XR\/Century-Original-Wavemaster-Training-Bag\/dp\/B0008G1OIS\/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;linkCode=sl1&amp;tag=ggbus-20&amp;linkId=65c0c21026c8d8b2ab57634e221c7e47&amp;language=en_US\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-identifier=\"B0008G1OIS\" data-locale=\"US\" data-localize=\"y\" data-localized=\"waiting\" data-tag=\"ggbus-20\" data-title=\"Century Original Wavemaster Training Bag\">Century Wavemaster Original<\/a>, which is a<strong> smaller version of the XXL<\/strong>, with the same high-density foam, color options and also provides you with height adjustment.
