Boxing sandbags are a considerable investment, and to make sure they remain in good condition, avoiding some common mistakes is essential. Here are some of the mistakes people make while taking care of their boxing sandbags and how you should avoid them.
- Placing the sandbag against a rough surface: The sandbag's outer covering can quickly wear and tear if you place it against a rough surface, like a brick wall or concrete floor. Always place the bag against a smooth surface.
- Overfilling the bag: Overfilling the bag can cause it to lose its shape and balance, leading to bursting or tearing. Avoid filling the bag beyond its capacity and use the recommended filler weight.
- Underfilling the bag: Underfilled sandbags can cause the top part to bulge, making it difficult to punch or kick, leading to wear and tear. Make sure the bag gets filled to the recommended capacity.
Cleaning your boxing sandbag is essential to maintain its longevity. Here's how you can do it.
- First, empty the sandbag of all its fillers.
- Use a soft brush and brush away the dust and dirt from the bag's exterior gently.
- Use a damp cloth to wipe down the bag's surface.
- Let the bag dry completely before adding the fillers back.
- It is recommended to clean your bag at least once every two months.
Storing your sandbag correctly is essential for increasing its lifespan. Here's how you can do it.
- Make sure you place the bag in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, dust, and moisture.
- Always store the bag in an upright position to prevent deformation.
- Cover the bag with a cloth or a bag to prevent dust and dirt accumulation.
- Before storing it, empty the bag and check it for any wear and tear. If you notice any signs of damage, repair them before storage.
In conclusion, if you want your boxing sandbag to last long and serve its purpose, you must take good care of it. By following the tips mentioned above, you can keep your sandbag clean, maintain its shape and balance, and prevent wear and tear. Taking care of a boxing sandbag becomes more manageable if you follow a proper routine.
