punching bag good for cardio?

[skoowat]

i hate my waterfilled bag : ( it takes up too much floorspace and i hate how it moves around. i wish i'd gotten a real bag, i just didn't have anywhere to hang it at the time. next time definitely! a hanging bag and a speedbag going into my home gym!

I have a 80lb bag I just need to find a stand for it and i will put it in my Game room/Workoutroom

I'd love to have one! I love kickboxing!

One of the thrift stores had a man shaped one on a stand... was in there for weeks with some astronomical price on it... kept waiting for them to knock the price down.... then it was gone. Wish I woulda snagged it up while they had it.

Great way to dump all your agressions too!

What about a speed bag????

[tenn0titan]

Working a bag would not be considered cardio. It is considered anaerobic. It is a great workout and would be great at burning calories. Plus you get a great arm and waist workout.
