Century Torrent Training Bag, Black Freestanding Punching Bag, Ideal for Martial Arts, Boxing, and Cardio Workouts for Men and Women

Perfect! I filled up with sand and stays very stable.

With all standing punching bags they are going to slide a bit. This one is better than others. The bag itself attaches to the stand via hook and loop straps. So you won't be constantly reattaching the bag. It says it weighs 250Lb when assembled. I got around 270 lbs of sand in it and topped it off with around 8 gallons of water. So it should be weighing in around 330lb. I have not managed to tip it over so far. The higher you hit it the more it jumps and is prone to sliding. Its not bad at all at that weight though. Between this and the Fight Camp bag you will be saving some decent cash. Being one of the best standing bags they price it accordingly. This thing should not cost north of $400 IMO. It does because its way better than almost every other standing bag. If you have the money I would def spring for this one. To fill it. Get the driest sand you can get 250-300LB. Get the largest red funnel from an auto parts store. Tape the funnel to the base. Find something to put the sand on while you fill slightly higher than the funnel taped to the base. Cut the end of the sand bag and allow it to slowly fill. If you pour it fast and it clogs you are adding alot of extra time unclogging. Once you have the sand in you can add water slowly to add extra weight as it fills area between the sand. The manufacture does not recommend this. For a standing bag I would def recommend this one. I've only had it a few weeks and so far it has held up with me doing about 5 workouts a week on it. I've kickboxed before and would say I hit it pretty heavy. I will update later if anything breaks or wears out.

So perfect, very sturdy, look nice. Perfect if you cannot hang a bag. It’s going to walk a bit on the floor when punched, but if you move around it, it shouldn’t be a problem. That bag is more for cardio not for 100% power punch or kick. I don’t know if it’s normal but mine is 68 5/8 inches tall and not 67. That is not a complaint at all. That bag is great.

This bag was in my Wish List for a long time — worth every penny! Decided to get the stability pad as well which really seems to keep the bag in place. Filled it with water instead of sand — heavy and stable.

This is my second Torrent purchase. I purchased the T1 a year ago, kept it in my third floor apartment and filled the base with sand. With nowhere to dump the sand and no lift equipment available, it was impossible to move with so I left it behind.... I've now purchased the T2 and will be filling the base with water this time around.. Overall this is great quality fitness equipment, however the base does move/slide around quite a bit. Century has created a solution for this in the form of a stabilizing platform for the low low price of $130+shipping. That's the part that is frustrating to me; that this "stabilizing" device is somehow an 'optional' add-on accessory when it could have just been built into the base of the bag to begin with. After paying top-dollar for the bag, you get to shell out another 130 for basic functionality.
