Buying a heavy bag

All the bags in my gym are Everlast.

 

girv have a look at vipbe.co.uk its very good value, i have it in my gym and most of the main pro gyms in manchester use it

 

If you're buying a speed-ball/frame, I'd recommend getting a good one. You can get away with mickey mouse punch-bags and hand-wraps for a while; but if you don't have a good backboard you won't be able to hit the speed-ball fast at all (as the frame will get knocked backwards by the ball and won't provide enough force to knock the ball back towards you at speed).

I learned this lesson the hard way by buying one of the cheaper speed-ball frames which really aren't any good once you start building up speed.

(Also, make sure you deflate it a bit after use, otherwise it really will pop - this also happened to me.)

 

www.boxfituk.com is the best

 

Lonsdale Extra Heavy bag would be a good choice from www.sugarrays.co.uk for around £130.

If you have the money then the 65kg Lonsdale Colosus heavy bag for around £235.

 

I just bought two pairs from there

Proper Lonsdale ones though so i'll see how they hold up.
