ABSTRACT:
An exercise apparatus, which may be used for training in martial arts, boxing or the like, is disclosed. The apparatus is comprised of a target including an inflatable leather bag supported by the end of a padded, cantilevered arm. The arm is formed of a resilient material for absorbing energy from impact resulting from a punch or kick. The arm is attachable to a stand via an adjustment bracket which permits the height of the target to be varied in accordance with the user. Opposite the target is a counter weight. The counter weight has a threaded aperture therein for receiving an optional handle accessory. The handle allows a second participant to manually manipulate the leather bag to increase the difficulty of the exercise for the user.
