Boxing like we know has a lot of health benefit but it would not be complete without punching a heavy bag. If you are boxing in a gym, usually the gym has hanging boxing bags but what if you have no option of nearby boxing gym to go to?
Your next best option is to have a heavy bag in apartment, garage or whatever space you have in your living space. What if you can’t hang anything on your ceiling, free standing heavy bag works well too!
I created this post as a buying guide for best rated free standing punching bag so you don’t have to waste a lot of time looking for one. I recommend that you measure the space that you have before purchasing one and free up space around it as you will likely be moving around when you are throwing your punches around the bag.

I was only planning to buy a speed bag, but this post has encouraged me to purchase a standing bag too. I feel that my best choice is the Everlast unisex power core. And its price tag has also excited me because that is what I can afford. Thank you for this post!
Standing bag is usually must have equipment but will be great if you can have both speed bag and heavy bag. There is definitely a standing bag that suits any budget and Everlast has been a trusted brand for the sport of boxing. Glad I can be a help to you !
