Century Wavemaster 2XL Pro Freestanding Punching Bag for Adults - Color Options | Boxing Bag with Stand | Punching Dummy & Kickboxing Bag | Heavy Punching Bag | Adjustable Martial Arts Kicking Bags

I bought this punching bag for boxing, kickboxing, and basic Muay Thai training in my home gym. Once I weighed it down with 250 lbs of sand from Home Depot, it's stable enough to train with but not too heavy to move around. I'm very glad I went with this instead of other options available.The padding is thick and sturdy, and is definitely not as dense as a regular hanging punching bag. Combined with wraps and 16oz gloves, I don't foresee any real risk of hand injury.

I've used these bags for 2 years at a local dojo, and purchased one for myself when we built our home studio. It's built very well. After seeing them used in an industrial setting for a couple of years, and holding up, I have no concerns about durability. But there are two considerations when buying. First, you will probably want to fill the base with sand, not water. Water simply did not provide enough weight when used with aggressive punching and kicking, as the bag moved around constantly. Filling with sand is a pain and can be messy, but I recommend it. (Get yourself a big wide-mouth funnel, and make sure your sand is dry!) The second issue - and why I docked 1 star in my rating - is that the bag part unscrews itself constantly from the base. I'll just stop and screw it back in, but it is a pain. I read that you can put some rubber between the bad stem and the base, so I'll give that a try. If I can tackle that problem then I'll be a totally happy camper.

We had been looking for a heavy bag for a while. This product is well made, very sturdy, very easy to put together, and most importantly an affordable price point for a quality piece of equipment.

These are the bags my teacher has at our karate academy, and he swears by them - so when I bought a bag for my home dojo, I never even considered another brand. Century is hands down the best martial arts supplier out there.

I like this bag. The pro is similar to the XXL standard but nicer padding. Also it doesn't loosen or twist as some complained about the standard XXL. Also it has a bigger base, i think, and you can pour more water in without taking the bag apart. I am happy with the purchase. It does cost considerably more than the standard XXL, so that is a consideration. If you workout everyday, then i would recommend the XXL Pro.

Pretty solid. Will tip sideways with a hard kick but not all the way over.

Good quality but the plastic base can be improved.

Great bag and meant for abuse. We use this bag 3-4 times a week and it’s still looking great.
