the bag cuts the fat quick. i have a hanging bag in my garage, when i am cutting i spend an hour a day out there. it knocks the fat off! makes full shoulders and back too.

Right now I am less into bodybuilding and more into boxing. Have even dropped a lot of weight to boot! so yeah, hitting the bags quite a lot. I hate cardio and find boxing is great for that, since you are not focused on your panting lungs but on your hands and coordination etc. IronMike

Very cool gentlemen! I've had a S bag in my garage for a while and I used to just play around with it, but now 15 to 20 minutes and my heart is a pumping. Sweating like a pig!

It's just something new, for me atleast, To break up the usual cardio!
