In a previous post I wrote about how to fill an empty heavy bag.
But along with a quality heavy bag, I also needed a way to hang the bag. Hanging the bag from the ceiling or from the wall was not an option in my finished garage, so I looked for free-standing bag holders. Having experience with a cheaper bag stand, where the metal supports restricted movement and also caused injury by getting in the way when kicking the bag, I wanted a stand that would maximize my ability to use the bag while minimizing the amount of space it took up in my garage.
The Outslayer Muay Thai Heavy Bag Stand seems to be just what I was looking for.
The Outslayer stand came in two boxes—one box had metal pieces burst through—the delivery person was not too happy, but nothing was damaged.
The stand was easy to assemble—it took maybe 10 minutes to put everything together.
Here are the arms of the stand, just out of the box:
This is the base piece—the arms fit into this:
Here are all the heavy bag stand pieces, ready to assemble:
Here’s the completed stand:
The stand is just over 7.5 feet tall, and supports up to 350 pounds. The stand comes with four (empty) sandbags that you fill with sand and place over the arms of the stand to keep it stable.
In the video I give a tour of the Outslayer heavy bag stand and show it in use:
The Outslayer Muay Thai Heavy Bag Stand fits perfectly in my garage and works well with a 6′ bag—there’s a lot more space around the bag for movement, and I can hit and kick with freedom.
