This is obviously inadequate for any kind of a serious heavy bag. Notice he didn't punch the bag? Collapse from, several points is inevitable. I was thinking about making one next to my pool in the ground with some concrete and 4X4's . Debating between 2 or 3 ground contacts sunk in the ground and pouring concrete around them. I am planning for a 100+ pound bag. And maybe even doing some jointing at the tops, or getting metal connections I can bolt into. Anyone else tried this?
I'd use the posts and still have blocks.Anyway,I have a 150lb heavy bag and wanted to build one 9 ft tall in my garage.If I use 4x4s,thicker screws and make it 9 ft tall,do you think it would work?
I believe I made it 7', but the best way is to measure from the top of your chains down to centre mass of the bag and add that number to your chest height.
This was the second one I built, the first one was too short, the feet were too small and it rocked around. This one works fine although I've had the bag off for a month due to weather. Depending on the bag and how huge the guy is punching it, stakes could be a good idea. Thanks for the comment!
I was actually thinking of doing the same thing but the top I’d make longer and attach a speed bag and reflex bag set up. Still great video
That’s AWESOME. I’m definitely gonna use this video to make my own!!!
Good effort & good luck, but the pounding the bag will create is gonna knock this house down.
Nice....Good Idea
Thank you built it in my basement its rickety but it works
how big is the bag? Because mine i want to hang is 200lbs and full of water

If I were to build this again, I would support the beam with the posts instead of using blocks.
How about putting 2 beams into the ground with concrete and then 1 beam on top of that? Would that be firm enough?
@@edntz as long as they were deep enough to stay upright (assuming you are eliminating the 45° knee braces)

how much did this cost in materials?
How tall is the centre beam?

How has it held up? How do u have it attached to ground?

That sounds like a good 150 dollars and a day lost
Fairly inexpensive and productive day. Stop being broke and lazy
To flimsy a good puncher will wreck that stand in a week.
