I need to know everything about the double end bag. How to set it up? what supplies do I need to buy, to hang up the double end bag? how high should it be?
It's made to simulate punches being thrown at you and its used to build timing, defensive reflexes and speed. Its one of my favorite pieces of equipment. I came here because I was looking for tips to hang my own more from the mounting standpoint at the bottom. I'll try to answer the questions first.
You need obviously a double end bag, two bungy cords, two S hooks, some type of mounting device for height and something for the foundation. You can get all of this at ringside.com or titleboxing.com. The height should be around shoulder length because when you crotch in your boxing stance, it'll be around eye level. I'm short so I make mine a little higher to simulate the types of opponents I face.
The bottom part of the foundation I'm having trouble with. I would like it to go in the concrete but it seems to much of a hassle to drill into concrete. So I may just make a makeshift foundation (a weight, paint can filled with cement, etc).
Straight out of the beloved J.R.R. Tolkein novels comes Bag End, the inside-a-hill home of Bilbo Baggins and later Frodo Baggins and starting off point for both The Hobbit and The Fellowship of the Ring . With stunning detail, this almost 12-inch wide polystone resin statue of Bilbo's home is used in Peter Jackson's The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings movies and was crafted by the pros at Weta.
Mix ICP's sleazy and gaudy attitude with Beck's kookiness and the Eels' cleverness, and then sprinkle in a little of Todd Rundgren's maverick wizardry and you've got the sound of Bag, a one-man band who has never met a clever idea he hasn't fallen head over heels in love with. Heavy with quirk and dramatic twists, his self-titled debut gets ponderous once in a while and the "I love you but I loathe you" songs "I Can't Stand Your Face" and "I Hate You Baby" are practically interchangeable, but when Bag wows, he wows big. Likening lovemaking to bull fighting, "Aye Mi Amore" layers Spanish guitars under gems like "one breast is all that I need," but the song's character doesn't even get one because the object of his nocturnal obsession is a man in drag -- not that he minds much. The other gutter tales of depravity contain plenty of twists and turns, all in arrangements that are very ambitious, epic, and theatrical instead of rock & roll. Weird thing is, all this freakish, nonconformist stuff gives way to some sweet ballads in the fourth quarter, ones that make Bag out to be a wistful dreamer all alone in a world that's ever so cold. This change of heart would be more interesting if Bag's sentimental lyrics weren't so bland, but once again, the elaborate arrangements are engaging and he surrounds his ballads with production that would make Jeff Lynne jealous. Toward the very end, the pathos-prone Bag goes through his Beatles phase and then on to incredibly slick psychedelia before exiting with the amusing "Ballad of Johnny Eunuch," which would be nothing without the line "Lucy's so soupy her life is a peach." It should be noted that Kiss member and marketing madman Gene Simmons made Bag the first signee to his revived Simmons label, and it's easy to see why. Just like the fire-breathing madman, Bag embraces indulgence and shock tactics while putting equal oomph behind his good and bad decisions. Luckily, this maverick is more hit than miss than his mentor, and there's evidence on his debut that it'll stay that way. If you can ignore the clumsiness of Bag's sensitive-versus-sleazy dichotomy, dig in and enjoy this one-man Rocky Horror Picture Show. ~ David Jeffries, Rovi Performers: Hellenkeller - Loops; Bag - Guitar (Bass), Percussion, Guitar, Vocals; Cheeze - Loops, Percussion, Drums; Darren Parris - Bass, Guitar (Bass)

Practicing Boxing on a Double End Bag : Coached Sequences on a Double End Punching Bag
What is the name of a bag that runaways carry in tales and stories, the one at the end of a stick?
Remember the old stories and book where the runaway children put all of there belonings into a cloth and then tie it to the end of a stick and carry that over their shoulder? What is the dear world is that called? Does anyone remember or have a faint idea?
The only word I can think of is knapsack.
LOL Thank you so much, this is going to drive me nuts.
Good luck
**Edit: Yep, I've seen references calling them handkerchief-knapsacks.
