hanging bag

Gym striking equipment

A hanging bag is a punching bag suspended from above, used for boxing and martial arts training.

Unlike a heavy bag mounted on a stand, a hanging bag swings freely when struck, requiring the fighter to track movement and adjust timing: He worked the hanging bag for twenty minutes before sparring.

The term also refers to garment bags designed to hang in closets.
