For a cheap bag stand is offers good value for money as it comes with two work stations and has a good degree of overall quality to it. The Max Strength is suitable for 4ft and 5ft punching bags weighing up to 45kg but we would suggest adding extra weight plates to the weight plate pegs – we found that a couple of 5kg plates on each peg was more than sufficient to give a really sturdy and balanced feel to the frame.

Overall, the Everlast is well made, very sturdy (especially when you add your weight plates to the pegs) and looks great with a decent bag attached. It’s a shame it doesn’t have a speed bag attachment but as a pure heavy bag stand it does the job perfectly and won’t break the bank. Construction: The frame is made of steel tubing and powder coated to avoid scratches and rust. It has a pretty spreading base, which feature makes the unit stable alone. However, there are 3 weight plate holders and circular end caps that provide even better stability. It is good to see that the manufacturer adds multiple features to avoid tilting and wobbling. If you are looking for a well-built and affordable boxing punch bag stand this one is well worth taking a look at. For a similar price as a single workstation bag stand you could get a 2 workstation like this one, adding more versatility to your workout.Limited Movement: Adding weight plates for stabilization restricts movement in front of the bag during workouts. Like most stands on this list, it holds up to a 100-pound bag, which is roughly what most recreational fighters use anyway (a general rule is to use a bag that’s half your body weight). The stand’s large frame contributes to its stability, providing a secure platform for heavy bag workouts. It features a main bag holding clip, which is well-built and securely attaches the bag to the stand.

There is, however, the practical challenge of finding an appropriate place to put them. The obvious choice may seem to be to hang them from the wall or ceiling, but, leaving aside the fact that landlords are unlikely to allow this, in some buildings, particularly, very old or very modern ones, the weight could prove to be something of an issue.
