...I brought this punch bag from littlewoods catalogue 4 years ago for £79, i chose this one as it is a heavy duty bag and weighs in at about 7 stone, i didnt see the point of buying a light bag that would fly everywhere when i hit it so this was a great choice for me, i also chose to get it from the catalogue as i didnt fancy carrying it home myself.
The quality of this bag is great, the leather is very soft so it doesnt hurt your hands but is very tough as mine is still perfect after 4 years of abuse. This bag has hooks on the top to hang it up and comes complete with hanging bracket and gloves.
The inside of the bag looks like loads of thin strands of string and straw, it has a zip on the top so you can refill it if you need to but i havent had to yet.
The bag is long so is ideal for boxing or kick boxing as it is long enough...

The leather cover on the punchbag means that it is soft to the touch so you will not get badly swolen knuckles or split knuckle skin as some people get from lower quality punchbags.
The leather cover also means that it is very durable and will happily endure a savage beating from you without splitting and covering you with stuffing. If the punchbag does happen to split, because it is covered with leather you can stitch it up to be as good as new.
Punchbags are a good way to build your biceps and triceps up, great cardiac excercise and a brilliant stress releiver also. If you are into boxing...

Bricks are Heavy was L7's 3rd album and is considered to be a classic album of the 1990s, this all girl band really pump out some good grungy punk music and this has hit after hit on it. The songs definitely capture the angst feeling of the time.

Certain unashamed cloth-eared critics have been heard to suggest that all Status Quo records (apart from 'Rock'n'Roll', 'In The Army Now', 'Who Gets The Love' and one or two others) sound exactly the same.

Wowza! That is the first thing you think as soon as you've applied this eyeliner, it makes an impact and a half, i love it!
So, i've not used much of the urban decay range much, to be honest the price has always put me off a bit. But when i walked past more
