Free standing punch bags are great if you have the space and are unable to find a solid wall to hang a traditional bag on. Often people have problems in setting hanging punch bags up securing to a wall or ceiling.

The free standing punching bag has many advantages of the traditional punching bag. When finished with the workout all you need to do is empty the base and it is light enough to move with little effort and store away, or you can roll to a corner etc.

The striking surface is good, popular with kickboxing and muay thai, allowing lower leg kicks around the ground area. They can be rolled away to clear space.

Fillings are usually water or sand, some people prefer water due to the energy it gives back like a rocking motion, others prefer the heaviness of sand.
