    How long did it take you guys to get to grips with this bit of equipment? There are people at my gym who regularly land four hit combos. Personally I consider it a good day if I land two successive jabs.

    Also, does anyone else find that their hit rate is better with their right (or left if you're a lefty)? I'm assuming that it's because my hand-eye co-ordination is better with my preferred hand but I'd be interested to here other reports.

    Cheers

    this + if any bag will help you most with timing & hand eye coordination, it is the dbl end.

    I've seen those bags before, but not connected to the floor. Do they actually move around much?

    They move a little but because of the top to bottom weight difference the way it moves can be quite unpredictable and I find it more like the motion of an actual person
