K got some more work done last night ( we work Ft jobs so we get a little tired working after work ) but i got the custom canvas cut and grommeted $128 dollars it ended up being 15x15 ft , but they cut it 1ft too big but we are just gonna work with it instead of bringing it back. We also hung some more of that black plastic up on the celing to keep and dust particles out and cover the bare ceiling. I put down all the puzzle mats in the take down area and they are not that bad , maybe because there is now 3 layers of puzzle. There is two layers of half inch puzzle and now the big 1.25 inch on top of them.

We also got our thai bag in it was $235 shipped from title , its an everlast syn leather one its friggin bad arse , not too hard but not too soft .... justright we also hung a eye hook over the ring and hung a 75 pound bag in the middle that is quick release, just so you can get a feel for teh ring while also putting some rounds on the bag

gotta hang some more bags on sunday ( damn we have so many bags for a smaller gym lol) i will post more pics sunday night of the newest progress.


P.S i love having the bags in 3 corners of the take down area we have a body snatcher round bag in 1 corner, then the thai bag , then a upper cut bag so we started doing a drill that you jog around like a racetrack lol and hit each bag as you pass.... makes it fun

ok we got a little bit mor done over the weekend , if you look above at the pics wou will see the difference.

we put up a wall behind the ring to make the auto guys some storage behind there, and it left us some room to put two more bags. We are gonna put a heavy bag there (75lb got on craigslist.com for 30 bucks brand new lol) and the huge double ended bag we got at title boxing for $40 dollars this thing is huge , you hit it hard and you better watch out it comes right back fast and hits ya in the face pics





we also got the canvas made for the ring but we are not gonna put it on there until we are finished with everything, i also had a friend of mine make a vinly graphic stencil for 30 dollars and we are gonna put the name in the center of the ring by laying down the stencil and painting the name right on the canvas



and last i had the great job of laying down the damn last puzzle mats it brightened up the room alot as compared to the pics above





this hook/uppercut bag is my favorite bag you can work all kinds of angles and even knees on it

we had our first workout last night and finally realized how fat and outta shape i am lol , but hey it can only get better i am 6'2" 315 right now and for my very first workout i didnt do to bad , lasted about 2.5 rounds doing circuit drills and havent started running yet

but man hitting bags and hitting thai pads/punch mits is a whole new ballgame to get used to huh?
