A boxing training accessory comprises a hand held punching pad with an image of a human face that has a small boxing bag hanging from a lower part of it, representing a human chin/jaw. The accessory provides a more specific target for a user to practice striking techniques and striking combinations while also providing a more realistic look and feel. The training accessory is useful across a range of combat sports including boxing, kickboxing, muay thai, karate, taekwondo, MMA and others.

An apparatus includes a rolling mechanism and a pulley device. The rolling mechanism is connected to a cable and configured to traverse the cable from a first end of the cable toward a second end of the cable, the cable being attached to and extending between a pair of support members. The pulley device is removably coupled to the rolling mechanism and attached to a tackling bag, the tackling bag being configured to be tackled when propelled from the one of the pair of support members toward the other of the pair of support members. The pulley device is separated from the cable when the tackling bag is propelled from the one of the pair of support members toward the other of the pair of support members.

A boxing bag frame assembly includes a rectangular perimeter frame formed by perimeter frame members raised from the ground and supported by support posts, and a movable cross member which extends between two opposing perimeter frame members. Both ends of the cross member include roller assemblies which are movable along the frame members, thus allowing the cross member to be movable along the frame members. The cross member further includes a bag mount which also includes a roller assembly, such that the bag mount is movable along the cross member. The movability of the bag mount and the cross member allows a boxing bag to pivot, rotate, or swing relative to the bag mount as well as move in the space within perimeter frame in a first direction and a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.

A physical training apparatus for use in striking training, the apparatus comprising: a frame having a perimeter member extending substantially along a perimeter member plane and a support assembly for supporting the perimeter member above a ground surface such that the perimeter member plane is substantially horizontal, the perimeter member surrounding a central space for receiving an instructor; and a plurality of striking targets suspended from the perimeter member, the striking targets being positioned around the central space to allow a user positioned radially outwardly from the frame, adjacent one of the striking targets and facing inwardly towards the central space, to interact with the striking target while maintaining visual contact with the instructor when the instructor is positioned in the central space.

A multi-gym apparatus comprises a frame, the frame having an upright structure and a bar assembly mounted movably on the upright structure between selected positions on the upright members. The bar assembly includes an elongate bar and a bracket attached to the elongate bar, the bracket being shaped and dimensioned to abut against at least one side of the upright structure. The bracket receives a locking means which is movable between a first position in which the locking means is engaged with upright structure thereby locking the bar in a selected position relative to the upright structure and a second position in which the locking means is clear of the upright structure thereby providing for movement of the bar relative to the upright structure. The elongate bar includes two outer bar members, one to each side of the bracket extending at an angle that projects forward of the bracket and upright structure.

A punch bag support assembly includes a mounting unit, a first elongate arm pivotally connected at a first end to the mounting unit and a second elongate arm pivotally connected at a first end to the second end of the first elongate arm. A mounting device for a punch bag is arranged adjacent the second end of the second elongate arm. The connection between the mounting unit and the first elongate arm or the connection between the first elongate arm and the second elongate arm, or both connections, is provided with a spring mechanism.

A reflective punching bag wrapping device for improving striking techniques includes a panel, which is resiliently flexible so that it conforms to a contour of a punching bag. The panel is reflective so that it reflects an image of a user who is striking the punching bag. A fastener, which is engaged to the panel, selectively engages the punching bag to removably engage the panel to the punching bag. The reflective punching bag wrapping device, once installed on the punching bag, allows the user to self-train and to improve their striking techniques.

An apparatus, method, and a non-transitory programmed medium provide a structure to move a heavy bag to simulate sparring along with a method and programmed media to provide selective training experiences. Drive motors in a Cartesian gantry provide multi-axis lateral motion in a horizontal plane. The heavy bag is instrumented to generate information indicative of performance of the user. Also, the heavy bag receives information to prompt a user with indicators such as LEDs. A moving target simulates a boxing match. A user responds to motions of a heavy bag in an X-Y plane whether toward or away from the user. It may be used as a sparring partner. Electronic controls provide a pre-selected pattern of movement. Training programs include sequences designed by professional boxers and trainers. Controls may be adaptive to vary responses of the apparatus in response to user performance.

A training bag attachment for a suspended heavy bag for training boxing techniques, specifically but not limited an upper cut that requires an elevated and preferably suspended target. The training bag attachment provides a human head analog target representation, flexible resistant to impact. The target head bag extends from a resilient adjustable mounting assembly which is selectively secured to the bag's target. The target provides for automatic resilient return displacement after impact, affording a user multiple continuous resetting target configuration.

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.
