Review of Gold's Gym Punch Bag Leather

*Self* Defence If The Key

Advantages: Durable, great fit, numerus different sizes/weights, aesthetically pleasing, cheap
Disadvantages: None

...I'll always recommend looking up Blitz online because they can be bought from numerous online sites and if you're lucky enough to find them in a high street store then even better! I'd highly recommend these gloves to anyone, they're extremely tough, will last a very long time and give the ultimate protection for the wearer. Not only that they're a great bargain at £17.62, the gloves I used to buy were around £40 and the quality was terrible compared ...

...have to say that the Lonsdale Curved Hook and Jab Pads are a fantastic piece of kit and a defininate recommendation from me to anybody!!

Review of BBE Speedball Lightweight Leather

Bob the Boxer?, he should stick to building

Advantages: good for hand eye work
Disadvantages: limited, falls over and ludicrously expensive

I have two major issues with BOB, firstly he never winces when I hit him and two, why do you cost soooooo much! I've used Bob in the gym a number of times and find him quite useful. The main reason is he is contoured in the shape of a human unlike a punchbag. This for fairly obvious reasons gives him the edge over a regular punchbag as it allows you to train with greater accuracy for your target. He feels nice to hit too, as when you land a couple ...
...importantly it doesn't hurt your wrists as there is plenty of "Give". However there are three major floors with his design. 1) Firstly he doesn't move. I like the naturally moment you get from a punch bag as this means you can alter your attacks punching in and away from the punch bag. Bob just stares nonchontly back at you. 2) The base is wide so its difficult to get your feet near to the target. Again this limits your footwork and moment. 3) ...
