Boxing and karate
Punching bags and other boxing equipment
Boxing is one of the world's oldest combat sports. It takes place in a square ring and sees two athletes compete against each other, throwing punches to try and knock out their opponent.
Various sports and martial arts feature moves involving both the upper and lower limbs.
To train and improve these strikes, whether they are punches or kicks, combat sports and martial arts call for a range of equipment such as punch bags.
A punch bag is definitely a useful piece of kit for anyone looking to build up the strength of their punches and kicks without a sparring partner.
Every aspiring boxer or practitioner of karate needs to develop their technique and their speed; a punch bag gives you the chance to work on these skills before facing a real opponent.
