Everlast Double-End Striking Bag

I would also use the bag in another way--for enhancing instantaneous speed, snap, and focus for the 2-inch punch. The suspended bag doesn't provide much resistance like a heavier bag and so will encourage the development of speed rather than strength initially. At that point you can transfer to a heavier bag to add strength, which is a training better sequence. Otherwise the heavier bag will tend to promote strength initially, which will slow you down. I've been able to develope a pretty respectable 2-inch punch training like this. If you don't have one of these devices then a focus mitt is a better way to go--but that means you need someone available to hold it for you. All in all this bag is a great way to enhance your techniques, especially on the famous but often misunderstood 2-inch punch.
