This bag is not designed for kicking. *5secs later, kicks the bag

[@poorkwamoi]

I laughed at that also

[@OmniscientWarrior]

Just because it isn't designed for it, doesn't mean that it is not safe to do so. Just that you will need to be better conditioned to handle it and understand that it isn't going to respond properly.

[@jacobkeary6740]

He's more than a man

[@paullytle246]

Not designed meaning it isnt designed to facilitate kicking

[@ZBosco]

don't be so serious man

[@VisboerAnton]

Hi it's Ramsey Dewey and yes, this is my real voice

[@ericgraham3088]

Do you have to use water to fill the bags or can you use the blood of your defeated opponents?

[@kevingonzalez3673]

Use vokda

[@turtlemaster7697]

blood is better

[@kornelboyd154]

Eric Graham I use my tears to fill my bag up

[@steadytube]

just hang your opponent up after you have mauled them........................ them maul them again

[@SrChalice]

@@steadytube EXACTLY, why bother with draining their blood. This way you don't even need to buy a bag. I like how you think man. 😀

[@smradztoiek]

That seems pretty practical. And you can fill them with hard OR soft water for that different resistance ;)

[@oz_jones]

Uhh.... sure. :D

Φώτιος Τσακωμάκας never thought id see him mentioned on this channel ever

[@toms1197]

Lol. Very clever

[@jlbacktous9285]

As a physic, i can tell that the water punching bag bounces less due to the elastic behavior of the water. Every hit deforms the bag and bounces it. The energy used in deforming the bag makes the tempersture going up so a bigger part of the energy used in hitting the bag transform in increasing the temperature (this don't happen as much as in a solid punching bag), sorry for my bad english

[@Prod.Nov4_defunctchannel]

Imagine disliking a punching bag review

[@fireeaglefitnessmartialart935]

My last gym had one. I believe it was about 100lbs. Personally, I loved it. Good for conditioning bare hands. I did use kicks sometimes, but not much as well as knees and elbows. I only wish they had full length versions. Again personally, I love aquabags.

[@Geordieboi]

i remember the very first time i hit a heavy bag it was a sand bag and top was so compressed it was like a brick wall but i did not know so i walked up bare knuckle and hit the top of the bag with a big chuck liddel style overhand right and messed my hand up , dont think i broke it but it was so swollen i couldn't make a fist for about a week.

[@melchaios]

Yeah, same here. It was my wake up call when I started to get interested in martial arts and boxing around age 12, I asked my parents for a heavy bag and when I got it I was so excited I thought "YEAH, Imma beat the shit our of this bag". Being a complete noob I hit it with all my might bare knuckle, and sprained my wrist. That's when It hit me, that not only I didn't know how to punch properly, I didn't even know how to close my fist correctly.

[@RamseyDewey]

Sand bags are totally different! Nobody really understands how hard they are until they try hitting them!

[@melchaios]

On a different note Ramsey, my old heavy bags were filled with sawdust instead of sand. Would that be softer, harder or the same as sand, don't know if you've had one of those to compare.

[@dlroto]

Brad Davis if you are planning on hitting a bag hard I recommend you wrap your wrist up tight so you don’t break your wrist.

[@dagnut]

I wouldn't hit any bag without wrapping my hands

[@entee123]

Bought one of these after your review and very pleased. It sure is a beast and the lack of massive swaying and ease on your wrists is what sets it apart

[@ahmedelzayat9801]

0:35 Ramsey fights like he's in the 1930s and the reward is a load of bread

[@kend7597]

The way he fights looks like something out of those silent black and white movies like Chaplin or some shit

[@ksharky888]

Imagine the bag breaking, man the cleanup haha

[@WeAreSoPredictable]

Fill it with diluted disinfectant maybe. Bag breaks; mopping the floors is half done! :)

[@TheSilentOne50]

I never expected to see something to smart on this page

[@bemusedalligator]

no worse than a waterbed.

[@sokpapajr3461]

Great video. Just purchased the 100lb in black. Looking forward to making this one of my main training tools. 🙏

[@utoobeish]

Mine did the first time I used it had to unhook it and throw it out the garage door before it soaked everything

[@rusroyce]

Possibly the best review on youtube. You covered EVERYTHING.

[@Willy_Milano]

The reason that the sandbag swings a lot more than the water bag is that rubber and water absorb the energy of the punches a lot better by deforming and distributing the punch. The sandbag transfers energy through most of its volume and the inertia of your punch is added to the bag's almost completely.

[@danielhiggins8798]

We tried water bags in the 90s. They didn’t work out so well for boxing. Have you ever heard the old saying that water turns to concrete if you hit it fast enough? That’s what happened when the mid-weight guys started throwing power punches on them. Even with wraps and gloves, some guys got bruised and bleeding knuckles. Everlast came up with a fix, by adding an inch of high density foam to the bag lining, but most boxing clubs were turned off by the bad experience.

[@RamseyDewey]

Makes sense.

[@tabo01]

several pics of Tyson using them in different gym.

[@TheLockon00]

It's good to have both kinds of bags. The water bags stay stationary, which is nice for all the reasons you say, but likewise it is good to have the movement of an ordinary bag so you work on your footwork.

[@Win94ae]

I have a regular Everlast 70lbs canvas heavy bag, this is my 6th one, so sooner or later I'll need another. So I might try a water bag next time, if I can find a used one for cheap. I usually buy unused ones, whereas the people thought they would use them but didn't. Thanks!

[@KishorTwist]

Any waterbag follow-up since?

[@nubileyoungster6596]

Honestly could watch Ramsey bare-handed punch that water bag for an entire video

[@edsmith5848]

I don’t understand why this hasn’t been done: the Thai bags are great BUT after a few years of use, they pack hard at the bottom & the top gets flimsy. Easy design fix would be to attach a hanger at both ends so as the filling starts to pack, turn it over & let it re-settle. Any feedback?

[@leorosa]

I think the purpose of this, specially the smaller ones is it emulates coming at you movement, because it is like a pendulum. Aside from the angles, and toughness, I think what separates it is movement.

[@johanneskrv]

The Ramsey Dewey voice (^TM) is like listening to an audio book for children. Very soothing.

[@jc-kj8yc]

We need one of those "ego bags" at my gym! I went to kick one of our heavy bags after quarantine and holy hell, the shin conditioning went down the drain in the months before! I didn't walk the day after.....

[@AstralS7orm]

You could technically make a softer bag by instead of doing polyethylene bag a silicone bag. It probably wouldn't break and would have more of a skin texture. Fill with ballistic or silicone gel instead of water perhaps, would swing more. But that'd be a different bag.

[@AJMuggz]

Awesome. At 4:00, you answered the only real question I have in regards to these bags: Can you hit them with a lot of force without much sway? Thanks a ton. :D

[@stickman-1]

The water bags are different because they are variable loading and have a dampening effect. When I say variable loading it's this: At the bottom, you have all 150#s. At about half way up, you are only hitting on the water at the striking point and up. Think of it this way. A stack of plates. When you lift at the bottom, all the weight must be lifted but if you lift in the middle, it's much less. Most kicks are at the bottom of the bag, most hand strikes are half way up or more. I'd bet your undercuts hurt a lot more than your jabs. :-) The internal dampening of the water is also why they don't sway as much. When you hit the bag it sends a shock wave across the bag, which is some what reflected back to the point of contact. That energy is absorbed by the water. (the dampening effect.) Thanks for the review.

[@The_Default_User]

Yes please do more Product reviews, there are not enough trusty ppl on here when it comes to fighting gear ( and i rly could not give less of a fuck if its sponsored or not you deserve all the money you can get my brother ) Ty ^^

[@Libertariandude]

I find personally that water bags and tires are perfect for Savate. Mind you, the Savature kicks with a wrestling shoe or otomix style shoe and that makes a difference. I find one round bare knuckle gives your hand all the condition you need so you don't break your hand. Great review 🍻

[@Skyldyel]

Hey Ramsey. That might be a bit outside of your usual topics, but I was wondering: I have seen a few MMA fights with multiple fighters on each side. To me they always looked more like multiple 1:1 fights happening at the same time than two groups fighting each other. Do you think we will maybe one day see group tactics or even formation fighting in unarmed martial arts? Or are these events to rare for something like that to emerge?

[@poorkwamoi]

Space and mass when added with motion makes it very hard for two people to attack one person unless the person being attacked is held, pinned or on the ground. So, an experienced fighter can always make multiple attackers form a bee line not to mention there is always a "let him try it first" from the attackers POV

[@Skyldyel]

Group fighting in armed combat has evolved and refined for several millenia. It's proven again and a gain that fighters who can hold formation and in general know how to group fight have a huge advantage over the same number of individualists. The question is, does that translate to unarmed fighting? The point is that group fighting is an extra skillset that has to be learned and trained. If the group does not have it, exactly what you said will happen. Now, since most professional fights are 1:1 does it make sense for anyone in the sport to learn that skillset?

[@ORTIZ17113]

Look up “Team MMA combat” there is a sport starting up that is actually team based MMA, I recommend you look into that and see if you can figure out what possible techniques can be used on multiple opponents 👍🏽

[@13buthead]

@@Skyldyel Team MMA is still in diapers, i don't think it will grow too much because it is simply too dangerous. I don't think anyone has organised formation unarmed combat, simply because thats not how wars are fought and its too dangerous to do as a sport.

[@Johnnyjoejoe]

2:40 Better keep Jourdan away from them then 😊

[@lilboomthememegod]

I have a Everlast hydro speed bag. Instead of it being a wooden base, it’s plastic that you fill with water. It had no bounce so I had to put a bunch of weights on top. I think Everlast is trying to explore in using water.

[@carpejkdiem]

I'd appreciate seeing you clinch dirtybox throw & ground & Pound those dummies back there in the background. :-) Blessings brother

[@COMB0RICO]

You need to add this to your review playlist. Thanks from Texas.

[@RamseyDewey]

Thanks!

[@LaurentiusTriarius]

You can buy/use an engine block lifter for hanging bags if you have access to one. Those elbows sound like they must hurt, I'm a wimpy grappler tho

[@guillotineblade999]

Likely less likely to break or leak. Water can absorbe and dissipate force better (within the bag.) Likely also why they swing less.

[@jamapaza]

OMG! Have you ever fought in a ring or cage? I don't think so! Watching you on the bag, my knee was pulling out constantly.

[@RamseyDewey]

I was a professional fighter for over a decade. I competed as a pro in MMA, Muay Thai, K1, sanda, and American kickboxing before retiring in 2011 due to an injury. I coach full time now. So what’s your story?

[@jamapaza]

@@RamseyDewey I've googled your record. Wow, you are a real danger. A danger for your students. I don't know, maybe you are a good grappler but I've seen beginners having a much better striking technic than you. Teach what you know but it's for sure not striking. Sorry, but you are a clown and that's not a problem. The problem ist, you are teaching others and they will be clowns of mma too.

[@jamapaza]

@Sean Francis Waters Lancaster No, I am just a keyboardwarrior and I am here because I want to learn some martial arts from the best of the best Ramsey Dewey. I've heard about this legend and than I saw his skills on his youtube channel. His technic is perfect and I am wondering, why is this guy not a UFC or Boxing champion? I think guys like Cannelo Alvarez or Jon Jones should be his students. They can learn a lot from him. He could lift them up to the next level and you should learn form Ramsey also, it you want to be the next big thing. Ramsey is so great! I am jealous!

[@impulsepdr2175]

My first heavybag was hanged from my apartment balcony. A water bag would have been great to keep the apartment from shaking or the bag from swinging into the wall, had it been an option 20 years ago.

[@bankaiop9504]

Gonna buy one soon! Ty for the review!

[@puppythebare5307]

I bought the 100lb as a starter to practice boxing had it for 2 years and conditioned my knuckles hitting it barehanded. I even kick it, personally I like the water heavy bag, but all heavy bags are good. awesome review

[@Tufrmone]

The leather bag completely filled with sand has no give. The problem with that is that all the shock of the punch (or kick) travels back into the arm. That creates problems down the road on the joints. You really need to have bags that give. Use of the heavy bag is different than hand or shin conditioning so routine practice with a sand filled bag will cause problems down the road.

[@stickysweet1084]

Great review coach Dewey, I will look more into water punching bags the next time I'm shopping for a bag.

[@Siloguy]

Thanks ...great review, I'm going to buy one

[@KungFuCooter]

Hey Ramsey. I have one of these in 100lbs in my gym and I completely agree with your review and it only took me one kick to realize that this was not a kickboxing bag. I tore my pectoral muscle lifting weights and I was wondering if you have any experience with reconditioning and how long before I would be back striking like before.

[@flyinghole]

You might want to check out AthleanX. He has a bunch of rehabbing muscle injuries on his channel.

[@yetigriff]

The aquabag has the same patent number as a water buoy sold on eBay for a quarter of the price.

[@christopherduffy1703]

Only one chain looks like you can hang it anywhere. Like out at a park on some monkey bars. Or a strong tree branch. Interesting!

Hi Ramsey Dewey, why not use a boat buoy instead. Cheaper and should be the same as what you are using here.

[@winddragonmma]

Hey Ramsey, I've been watching your videos. I'm a father of 4 amazing kids, married to a beautiful wife, and life is just busy as can be. Seeing you train at 45 is nothing less than inspirational and I've been trying to find examples to keep fit best I can. I would really like to visit your gym one day in Shanghai. I have come to understand how realistic MMA training is, and am letting go much of traditional gimmicks and tricks to further focus training on specific combat. I respect your content. On my page not that you should visit, I put up some light bareknuckle sparring matches with Kung Fu. Went through phase you also experienced where I felt to prove the effectiveness of it. Haha. Made some noise. But, the evolution of fighting, or rather the truth of it, never changes but it is easy to miss because of all the Bullshido. My uncle trained me in Taiwanese Military Kung Fu, San Da, and Suai Jiao. The old school non watered down way. That is my base. Got into Wing Chun for the past 13 years but I'm deciding to walk away from it. I discovered too much gimmicks and wasteful forms and non proven theories that led me to believe it's a bunch of hoopla and bullshido. Some techniques work but nobody fights like that naturally. Chi Sao isn't real combat.

[@thedoctorate]

Calming voice coach lol. Great review and demo.

I also respond better to a voice like Ramsey's over someone like a USMC DI screaming in my face. I don't do anything anyone tells me if they're screaming and spittle coming out of the sides of their mouths. I'd never make it in the Military because I suck at following orders.

[@kingfan1601]

Brilliant review..thank you

[@serre]

Sooooo... the water bag swings less cause water absorbs the impact, and the energy you put in your hits is partially disperded, whereas instead the sand bag absorbs close to no energy. So, weight for weight and at equal heights, a bag filled with water will swing less. Source: I'm an engeneer. SCIENCE! :D

[@Circa_-ri7nm]

Great review…! One question - is it any quieter than other bags? I’m considering getting one to hang in my apartment (it won’t need a stand as I’ve got a pull up bar drilled into the ceiling), and just wary of the noise. I do have pretty thick walls and have rarely had noise complaints despite playing music unreasonably loud quite often, so I think I might be Ok regardless, but any thoughts on the noisiness would be greatly appreciated!

[@RamseyDewey]

The noise is going to be a result of your hanging set up mostly. So, that depends on what you’re hanging it on and what you’re hanging it with.

[@Circa_-ri7nm]

@@RamseyDewey I’m aiming to hang it off the pull up bar with the Everlast ‘Universal Punch Bag Hanger’… I suppose anything that isn’t a chain us what I’m looking for to reduce noise then, correct? Only thing I’ve seen with that hanger is that it seems there is potential for it to slide across the bar… Thanks for getting back to me so fast though Ramsey, I very much appreciate it!

[@slaya070492]

Where do you buy your rash guards. you always looking dapper af.

thanks man, honestly wasn't sure if you'd reply. Keep up with the great content.

[@iamshredder3587]

Interesting. I've never seen them before. I've got one somewhere that's got like a layer of gel stuff on the outside, which idk... But never seen these . Thanks. 👍 I particularly like the small one for body shots... hooks, uppercuts, shovels etc. Think I'll order one if I can find it. Also I've never really seen your striking style before, so much as more grappling and stuff with just abit of striking. So that was also interesting to watch for me. I'm guessing you have a background in some sort of karate or similar art maybe? Which developed into more of a kickboxing style later on? Idk... You don't seem to have a straight up Muay Thai or Boxing type base to me anyway. But what do I know haha. Anyway it's an interesting style. Thanks again Sir. Ps: Why do you have a floor to ceiling ball so close to that cupboard/shelf thingy with gear on it? And bag near a fire box? 😄 Maybe it's just the angle but idk...looks to me like it may get in the way or balk me abit. Or worse some new student gets carried away and accidentally smashes it or breaks the fire box and sets off a fire alarm panic lol. Love your gym though.

[@joegarcia9111]

Do you use sand filled bags at the jx fight club?

[@futbol1972]

which one to get an 80lbs or 100 lbs? 5ft or 6ft to hung it in my 8ft ceiling garage? I will be using it for boxing and muay thai too. I already have a 45lbs round water uppercut bag and a double end bag too..I used to fight in muay thai and also did some boxing while I was still competing in wrestling. Now I just wrestle but like to hit the bags still:) Been looking at the teardroo bags too but I think I can get more out of a full bag, what do you think?? My dad will be using it for cardio too

[@steadytube]

great review man

[@fgsf9]

Thank you im about to use mine for the first time n add it to my training etc

[@delrichardson8365]

What do you think of the bag

[@WeAreSoPredictable]

I only train on bags without gloves, and I've found that there's a big difference in how various surfaces and fillings respond to the hand, and more specifically their tendency to grip the skin if your strike isn't clean (for example a tight hooking punch of the bag moves away a bit). My question is, does the rubber tend to grip and grab your skin more than normal bags? I would think it would be very bad for those cases.

[@WeAreSoPredictable]

You've tried to solve a problem that may not be a problem in the first place! :) Still wondering if the rubber does actually grip/drag/tear the skin more for glancing blows, or whether it's much the same as regular punching bags. I don't like wearing gloves, and like to be able to just wail on a bag for short bursts when I feel like it, without getting properly equipped. If the rubber is a bit grabby, it probably wouldn't suit my purposes, which is why I asked.

[@RamseyDewey]

These bags are pretty low friction- very smooth surface. But it feels like your fist got got shot with a giant rubber band if you go bare knuckle.

[@WeAreSoPredictable]

Haha. OK, thanks for the feedback. Definitely sounds like a _try before you buy_ product then.

[@garethbarry3825]

Ramsay can you do a video of the various stances; southpaw vs ortjodox for a right hand fighter and whether there is any benefit to training both?

[@futbol1972]

Good video bro. Hey do you think I can use the bag for muay thai too and of course boxing? . I was gonna get a longer bag but my 17 year old likes the tear Drop bags..he wants to use them for kicking,kneeing and boxing . I have elbow tendonitis so I was looking for something softer and this looks like a good softer bag that will be easier on my joints?? It also resembles a tear drop bag. Do you think this should work for my needs? .My son is a wrestler who used to fight in muay thai and boxing. We both will be using bag just for cardio and to have fun with it since I used to do some boxing and muay thai myself. Thank u. I also been checking out the liquid shock bag that has foam outside and I think a bladder inside for water so it supposed to be softer and good on joints? But like I mentioned before son likes tear drop bags

[@hydroo13]

[@filipes.5354]

THanks for the review Ramsey. I noticed that when you punch from the right you have a tendency to pull your leg up and down just before the impact 6:50 . After training kickboxing for 3 years, I noticed I had the same tendency, however recentelly my teacher insisted I should never do that, and that instead I should shoot the right punch never loosing contact of both feet from the ground. Since then I feel that I am slower and less efective. Any thoughts?

[@RamseyDewey]

That’s a deliberately trained falling step- not a bad habit. A lot of really pedantic boxing coaches that don’t know any better will tell you it’s bad and wrong- I’m aware of this. I’ll make a video explaining why I do that one day. It’s immensely important, and very few striking coaches (at least in the west) understand this. Check out Coach Anthony Rodriguez (Coach Anthony here on KZbin) he’s one of the few American boxing coaches I’ve seen that teaches the right falling step with the right straight. Everyone yammers about “footwork”, but this dude actually understands it.

[@RamseyDewey]

I had a couple of Wavemaster XXL’s at my old gym in the USA. As far as free standing bags go, the XXL is the best I’ve used- but they’re really soft, really easy to break, and way to easy to knock over.

[@yagzyalcntas553]

You say they dont swing much but doesnt seem like you hit seriously rather focusing on technique, i mean the punches. Also sand is havier than water no?

[@animalizaki]

Nice bags!!

[@pedroalexandredillemburg3751]

Cool, I've never trained with one of this water bags but they seem better at bare-knuckle punching, since the average punching bag is very likely to cut the skin of the fingers while punching due the friction between the skin and the canvas, but, does this one have the same issue?

[@RamseyDewey]

Leather bags are way better for bare knuckle punching. These rubber bags feel like getting flogged over the hands with a whip with every punch.

[@pedroalexandredillemburg3751]

So, cuts are often when punching the water bag with the hands "clean"?
