Hi guys, I'm new to the forum so sorry if this has been covered before. My wife picked up a speed bag for me to go along with my heavy bag. I hang my heavy bag from my power rack with a heavy duty carabiner. However, I'm stumped as to how to hang the speed bag. My power rack has a lat attachment so I would have to mount the rebound board to the top side of the power rack I suppose. Anyone ever done this or have any advice on how to make this work? Thanks in advance.
Speed Bag in Power Rack

can't say I've ever seen a speed bag as part of a power rack. I would think you could use the vertical power rack mounts as the "wall" and then add vertical speed bag mounts to the vertical power rack mounts and attach the wood to those. I'm just speculating here, but it should work.
It may also depend on the power rack construction materials.Speed Bag

That's kinda what I was thinking. The vertical posts of the power rack are 30" apart. They are made from heavy duty metal of some type. Where would I find the posts you are talking about? I guess I would have to drill through the power rack? I wonder if some of those heavy duty tie downs for towing boats or atvs would strap on to the vertical speed bag supports and I could attach the wood from there?

I should mention it almost never hurts to have more weight over the board ... I've used sandbags well wrapped in plastic in the past. I currently have an 80lb heavy bag on top of mine
