Hey everyone, I need a little help. Here's the deal. My old gym used to have a speed bag and I would do it everyday and got pretty good at it and started to love it. Then I went away to school, switched gyms, and realized I haven't speed bagged for two or more years!
So, I resolved to purchase a platform and a bag and mount it to the wall of my dorm room when I go back to school in a few weeks. This is where you guys come in.
I searched on Amazon.com to find a platform with necessary mounting brackets. It looks like they range from 50$-1000$. Here's the link:
So I'm wondering what the difference is between a 60$ platform like an "Everlast Deluxe Speed Bag Platform" and a 200$ "Balazs i-Box Speed Bag Platform". I'm definately not gonna drop over 200$ so I don't really care what $1000 will get me! Basically, I'm wondering if the Balazs i-box is worth spending the extra 130 for. I do plan on having it for a while, but will there be a noticeable difference between that and the crappy everlast platform?
Also, whats a good bag to get?
And finally, any other advice in getting set up?
