Busted open my Heavy Bag


Part of me thinks it's pretty cool that I was able to hit it hard enough for that to happen. The other part me thinks it sucks because now I either need to fix it or buy a new bag. The bag is 100lb made of Canvas, I thought of stitching it back together but that will never hold. I'm wondering if anyone knows about a patch kit or something they might sell? Or should I just do the Rocky thing and put duct tape on it lol?

Wrap with a neopreme belly band


You could duct tape it and also give it a few wraps with an old neopreme style belly band. the kind that wraps around the tummy with a velco strip to "sweat" off some pounds. I wrapped my heavy bag with it ( B4 it ripped...) and it really protects the bag and is soft on the hands.
