The bag still moves around a little too much for my liking (a relatively light jab will still send the bag 40 degrees away from me) so am thinking of putting a second our even third bag in.
My question though, is had anyone here find it impractical to load up a small bag in such a way?
Diyes anyone have any recent experience/ opinions of a 3ft bag??
I had a light bag of 25-30 kg, I reinforced the plastic cover for desk (used to protect the table surface), something like this:

And lots of skotch of course.
My weight was around 70 kg, so I could not really load on the bag, it would fly all over. However, it was good for short snappy punches, and it did not hurt my fist at all.
Linked to a Ikea site, thump up!
I only like food there and prices.
