Forget about wimpy freestanding bags that fall over in one punch. Forget about heavy bags that feel like they're filled with concrete. Johnny Sockitomee provides the ideal striking surface for anyone wanting to mix it up.
More and more fitness enthusiasts are training on freestanding bags as opposed to hanging bags these days. They have good reason. Hanging bags carry the burden of inflexibility and can only be used in one place (and if you want to change that location, you have to drill new anchors, take down the heavy bag, and hang it up elsewhere). Johnny Sockitomee provides easy, rolling mobility. Workouts can be conducted in the garage, the rec room, and the backyard all in the same day.
Many martial arts instructors are using bags like Johnny to enhance their classes. Some teachers have developed programs in which multiple bags are used as different workout stations - one bag used for straight punching, then another for high roundhouse kicks, etc. Johnny's easy height adjustment makes training different techniques a snap.
Some other freestanding bags can be knocked over with little effort, causing annoying stops in an otherwise great workout. Everlast recognized this problem and created a thicker basin for Johnny's foundation. When filled with water or sand, this base is extremely well balanced and resists techniques of all varieties. it would take a football tackle to bring Johnny down when he is properly secured. Despite this superb balance, Johnny can still be tilted and rolled off the floor at a moment's notice.
Developing punching power is critical in the fighting arts (and useful for everyone else too). The problem is, many people start training their punches on rough hanging bags and quickly get discouraged from the pain. They try using bag gloves but feel awkward and still find it rough on the joints. Johnny is the perfect companion for anyone trying to improve their punch because it has a firm, lifelike feel that provides enough cushion to keep knuckles in good health. This is especially important for children as their bones continue to develop. Allowing a child to strike excessively hard substances like wood planks or rigid bags can result in permanent damage.
Another unique feature that makes Johnny superior is recoil. Instead of hanging lifelessly or merely swaying as it gets hit, Johnny flexes slightly with each strike, springing back into place immediately. This flow allows you to establish rhythm and timing with the bag. Not only can Johnny train striking power, but it can also help improve overall fighting ability!
Johnny Sockitomee is a versatile piece of equipment that can enhance anyone's training routine. Whether you're into boxing, karate, or fitness, this bag is for you.
