ABSTRACT:
A Karate exercising bag which provides resistance to the four basic movements in that art of self defense. The exercising bag is so mounted that it responds laterally with adjustable resistance when punched or kicked by the person exercising. The exercise bag has upper and lower pole members by which the exercising bag is suspended vertically between semicircular upper and lower mounting frames. The mounting frames are interconnected and supported by two or more vertical support members. Spring-loaded swivel means is provided at the top and bottom of the pole members to provide lateral resistance to any twisting movements imparted to the exercising bag by the exerciser and to return the exercising bag to its original position when at rest. In addition, shock absorbers are mounted at right angles to the pole members to provide resistance to any rearward movement imparted to the exercising bag by the exerciser and to return the exercising bag to its original position when at rest. The preferred embodiment mounts in the corner of an exercise room. A modification could mount along any wall or be free standing.
