Orginal Post: setsu nin to: Heavy Bag Equipment

dscott
I am in the process of buying a heavy bag and some gloves. The heavy bag that I was looking at is the Muay Tai Heavy Bag or the Vinyle Heavy Bag. See this webpage for details

http://www.centuryfitness.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?catalogId=10051&storeId=10051&categoryId=13578&langId=-1&parent_category_rn=13576&crumb=13501-13549-13574

If I don't get the MT bag I was going to get the 70lb bag. I'm 27 and in alright shape. Is this going to be too small?

Also, I was thinking of using MMA gloves instead of boxing gloves. Will these protect my hands enough?

Ninja Kl0wn
Go with the muay Thai bag. I have that exact one, it's really nice.

And yes, MMA gloves will be fine. I usually go bare knuckle or mma gloves.

I'm going to be new to working out with a heavy bag, the 100lb won't be too heavy or hard?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

dscott
The MMA gloves will give my wrists enough support?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ninja Kl0wn
No, it shouldn't be too heavy.


Yes, they give enough wrist support (as much as a pair of boxing gloves). Just make sure to strap them tight. If you're still a little worried about it, invest in a $3 pair of hand wraps.
