April 21, 201610 yr I think its time to retire my 100lb Title heavy bag or at least make it an uppercut bag (i'll link a video on how to turn an old heavy bag into an uppercut bag for those curious). Can anyone suggest me anything? I did a bit of research and came across these 2 articleshttp://mmapage.com/bestheavybag/Both recommend the Ringside heavy bag. Title has been good to me over the years but i hear Ringside makes a very good bag. What do you guys think? Anyone got any other suggestions?Thanks!How to convert an old heavy bag into an uppercut bag:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRaO...&nohtml5=False
April 21, 201610 yr I'm still waiting for room in my basement to hang a heavy bag. I've decided on an Outslayer Muay Thai bag. 6 ft bags are the way to go, as you can kick pretty much head to toe height. Without a 6 ft bag, how else can you practice a combination that has knee height or even calf height kicks mixed in with other stuff? A 6 ft bag is good enough for strikes to the entire body, not just waist or thigh height and up.
April 23, 201610 yr This is a good topic. I was wondering what would be a better investment. A Heavy bag or something like the Wavemaste r by Century. "Those who know don't talk.

April 23, 201610 yr I hit a Wavemaster XXL at my local YMCA. I'd prefer a hanging bag of equal height any day. I've hit all the Wavemasters at one point or another, and IMO they're a convenience alternative, not a replacement. If you can't hang a bag, get a Wavemaster. If you can, get a hanging bag.
April 23, 201610 yr Thanks a lot. That Muay Thai bag looks good. "Those who know don't talk.
