Seriously need a heavybag in my place. Am on 2nd floor of an apt building. Thought about getting 1 of those water filled ones. It wouldn't be as good as the real thing, but better than nothing.

Really miss living in a house where I could vent as often as I wanted at any time of day.

So.. I can't hang anything from the ceilings and I can't install 1 of those 500lb steel triangles to support a heavybag. The water ones may very well be my only solution.

Any product links or construction ideas?

Get one of those dummy dudes for punching workouts. You know the ones that are on a stand that have the torso of a person.

You can also put pics of people you don't like. That may help with venting. Razz

I've already torn up 1 of those dummy things. I'm not macho or badass or anything, but even a 5 yr old is gonna tear up something if he hits it enough. :p

Fine. Be like Rocky, get a walk-in freezer and hang a side-a-beef on a meat hook!

I like this idea. Plus you get the economy of scale by buying a whole cow at once instead of individual steaks and burgers. And when you're done working out, you can just tear off a chunk and toss it on the broiler for lunch or dinner. It's probably even already tenderized from all the pounding.

Or, you can take a look at your life and realize what is causing you to be so stressed out and focus your efforts to resolving it.

But, I'm gay, so what do I know!

Pounding one out relieves a lot of stress and is very calming, if you get really good it can be a work out too!

Calm down, Cheif. You didn't use any capitilization at all in your response. You only half-heartedly reached over with your pinky to hit the shift key twice, and this makes me worried about your mental health.
