Looking for a punching dummy

[The Deco]

Well, I want a punching dummy. (not punching bag) I want a dummy since I want to train my punches and I don't want the resistance of the bag. I am looking for something in the style of if I hook punch the dummy's head then it rotates like a normal human neck and head would.

Something in the style of simulation, I want it to feel real.

edit: I also need it stable so it won't fall or rotate so easily because I intend to throw power on the dummy, not just jabs.

So any tips on any good ones but in a decent price out there? (like 50$)

The closest thing that I know of to a "punching dummy" is a grappling dummy. However, as the name implies, it's designed for grappling and wrestling.

There's also this:

But, if money is an issue, then you're better off buying a free-standing bag, a heavy bag (100 lbs. and below) or just make one yourself.

that robot baby thing is just wrong....one step closer to taking over the world these robots are, but ya that would definetly be an option if you would like a punching dummy.

Cypeq, you are very well familiar with the rules, thus I'm giving you a warning for this. Please don't post such things again.

Out of curiosity, may I know what rule he broke (I didn't made it in time to read his post)

The pic he posted was inapropriate. Though hes been told that lots of times.

You want all that for 50 bucks? hahaha good luck.

Stick with a normal 120 pound bag, that's what I'm doing. What are you trying to do, get into MMA?

 

[The Deco]

Yeah I found later on the redicilous cost of those dummies.

I got bags where I train, and I don't like it much, it doesn't feel real, at least in arm techniques

Yeah, but what exactly are you trying to do? Submissive moves? Just increasing your punching power and proficiency? Full-blown MMA?

 

[The Deco]

I want to practice my boxing techniques, that is why i dont want to feel the resistance of the bags, but more like the head rotates with the punch(in a hook for example) that I can get with a boxing dummy.

What do you think a heavy bag is for? Developing striking power and technique. Striking power is the result of the resistance of the heavy bag. Technique is the result of not wanting to break your hands/wrists/ankles/feet/etcetera when striking it.

Of course, there's always hard-contact sparring.
