Century BOB Freestanding Punch Bag Height Adjustable 60-78 inches

Product Information

I highly recommend BOB to anyone who wants to hone their martial skills without having a live training partner.

Boxing dummy bobs are a popular choice among users, as they can provide practitioners with a wide range of punching bobs, and after-sales on Alibaba. Recomiendo que lo coloquéis sobre un suelo de goma (tipo tatami o algo por el estilo) porque sobre un suelo duro hace bastante ruido. Außerdem kam ich auf die dumme Idee den Dummy auf einem Fassroller zu befestigen, damit er nicht immer so präsent im Raum steht.

Anyway, that just means that for me, I get my kicking practice in at ninjutsu class, where I spend about 5 hours a week, which is plenty.

Low kicks: The XL Zones provides high impact foam from 60cm up to 180cm facilitating both low and high strikes.So the biggest drawback of the regular BOB model is that he isn’t made for kicking really, unless you do a bunch of body and head kicks. Since you are training to fight against a human (presumably) this shape allows you to train with a higher level of accuracy than a regular heavy bag or punching bag.

This essentially makes the whole unit very solid, with a little give as well, reacting appropriately when struck. Also, BOB XL completely wraps around his sleeve, so there are points on the back that are usable, as well. It has realistic features for the most effective training, and its long torso provides more room to strike. Of course, there are many folks who completely disagree with me and practice martial arts that focus on kicks. Secondly, the Bob has a tendency to move a bit when hitting hard, and while you could use footwork and move to another side to hit it back to where it came from, this isn't practical for most people, but it is not exclusive to this BOB, it happens to allmost all freestanding bags.The Century BOB is made from incredibly durable plastisol, filled with a high-density urethane foam to mimic the feel of a human being. Once you have found the best position for the base, you have a choice of filling with either sand or water. Anyway, once filled, obviously he’s very bottom-heavy, so you’ll have to drag or roll him if you want to relocate him. The key strengths of this type of material are that it is extremely impact resistant and wear resistant, yet still provides a cushioned coating. When completely full the unit has 270 pounds of weight, so I initially filled it about halfway, which was a good starting point and then topped up as I became stronger.
