A swivel joint system for hanging a heavy punching bag from an overhead support has a swivel joint defining at least first and second perpendicular pivot axes and a hanging shaft having a lower end pivotally connected to the universal joint for rotation about the first pivot axis and an upper end configured for rotatable attachment to an overhead support for free rotation about a third pivot axis. A hanging tube is pivotally connected to the universal joint for rotation about the second pivot axis, and releasably secured to a mounting plate. A plurality of attachment members are rigidly attachable at spaced locations around the mounting plate to surround the hanging tube and configured for attachment to straps at the upper end of a heavy punching bag.

A striking training device comprising a base; an adjustable length elongate member having an upper end and a lower end supported by the base in a vertical orientation defining a vertical axis; a punching bag supported on the upper end of the elongate member; a flexing member spaced along the elongate member between a ½ point up from the bottom of the base and a point ¾ up from the bottom of the base and in line with the elongate member along the vertical axis for providing a flexing point along the vertical axis corresponding to the flexing member.

A boxing bag mount includes an attachment plate for attaching the boxing bag thereto. The attachment plate includes a central post extending upwardly from a central point thereof. The central post includes an attachment formation for mounting the boxing bag mount to the structure, such as an attachment point for a chain, link or similar. The boxing bag mount additionally includes a pivot mounted to the central post in a rotatable manner. The pivot includes socket formations extending in opposing lateral directions thereof. The boxing bag mount additionally includes feature arms which are attachable to the socket formations in a removable manner. In the example shown, one arm has a feature which is a padded hit pad and another arm has a feature which is a padded extended duck bar.

A portable kicking target for shin conditioning during martial arts training, particularly muai thai. The target may be attached to a conventional punching bag to provide target areas of varying hardness, such that, over time, trainee shin bones and the shin area of the legs are conditioned and strengthened. The target comprises a radially spaced-apart pair of impact pockets that are to be repeatedly kicked. Each impact pocket houses a plurality of elongated, generally parallel, plastic impact tubes. One pocket has a plurality of soft tubes, and the other houses a plurality of harder tubes. The kicker's shins are strengthened over time by repeated contact with the impact pockets. Training starts with the softer impact tubes. After the trainee's shins strengthen, the trainee may increase impact force by switching to the harder impact tubes, and eventually micro fractures will develop as conditioning peaks.

An apparatus including an elongated foam piece first and second ends; and a suction cup attached to the elongated foam piece at the first end. The elongated foam piece may be a cylindrical foam piece. The suction cup is typically removably attached to the elongated foam piece. The apparatus may further include a plate to which the suction cup is removably attached. The plate typically has an outer diameter larger than an outer diameter of the suction cup. The apparatus may include a weight attached to the plate, underneath the plate, opposite from where the suction cup is removably attached to the plate. A plurality of such apparatuses, spaced apart from each other, may be attached to a surface by suction; and a plurality of exercises using each of the plurality of apparatuses may be performed, such as by contacting or weaving in and out of the apparatuses.

A martial arts training device including a support frame, a first central pad, and a second central pad. The first central pad is supported from the support frame and includes a convex surface for receiving punches and the second central pad is supported from the support frame below the first central pad and also includes a convex surface for receiving punches. The convex surface of the first central pad is tilted downwardly relative to the convex surface of the second central pad.

Four striking panels having wireless sensors are arranged such that at least one striking panel is: in front of an athlete, behind the athlete, to the right of the athlete, and to the left of the athlete. A display is situated in front of the athlete. Randomly, a particular striking panel is presented on the display during an exercise routine. When the athlete strikes the appropriate corresponding panel based on detection of a wireless signal provided by the corresponding wireless sensor, a next randomly selected panel is presented on the display. This continues for a particular number of times or for a particular elapsed period of time. Response time metrics are retained for the routine and provided at the conclusion of routine.

A martial arts training equipment includes a base mount, a post upwardly extending from the base mount, an elastic branch tube including a post sleeve sleeved onto the post, and at least one branch sleeve extending from the post sleeve, and at least one rod having an end inserted into or sleeved onto the at least one branch sleeve. Compared to the conventional Wooden Man Post, the martial arts training equipment is lightweight and convenient for carry and transportation, and the portion of the martial arts training equipment to be punched or kicked by a user is provided with satisfied buffering cushion and elasticity so as to prevent the user from uncomfortable feeling, and no bothersome noise will produce during training.
