Heavy bagPU leatherHeavy training
The essentials: Extreme Boxing heavy bag, 50 cm / 20 in across, in first-quality PU leather. 4 heights from 120 to 180 cm, 40 to 50 kg / 88 to 110 lb filled. Straps, swivel and carabiner included. Intensive conditioning and power. From €249. Free shipping.
A wide bag is a conditioning tool as much as a technical one: it barely swings, so the resistance comes back into your legs and your core on every shot.
50 cm across: what it changes
Ten centimetres more than a standard bag is a different target: it swings less and returns more, so combinations land without waiting for the bag to come back, and body shots meet a surface that stands in for a torso rather than a pole.
Four heights
- 120 cm / 47 in: English boxing and tight spaces.
- 140 cm / 55 in: all-round training.
- 160 cm / 63 in: kickboxing and MMA.

Frequently asked questions
Is this bag suited to HIIT boxing?
Yes. 30 seconds flat out with 15 seconds rest, or three-minute rounds with a minute between them. A wide bag adds resistance on every shot.
How often should you train on a heavy bag?
Three to four sessions of 30 to 45 minutes a week is a common rhythm in preparation, leaving at least one recovery day between two power sessions. Joints and wrists take the load better when it is spread out.
Is heavy bag work physically demanding?
Yes: it works the legs, the core and the shoulders as much as the arms, and a 50 cm bag adds resistance the body absorbs on every impact. It is a conditioning tool as much as a technical one.
Boxing gloves or MMA gloves?
For intensive conditioning on a heavy bag, boxing gloves of 12 to 16 oz with wraps. 4 to 6 oz MMA gloves leave the knuckles exposed over long full-power rounds.
