Heavy Training Bag

Abstract

The present invention is a heavy training bag for pugilistic, martial and other similar arts, which provides uniform resistance and contains non-settling filler material. The bag comprises an optional support core contained within a cushion core, which in turn is contained within an impact core, which in turn is contained within an optional outer cover; further wherein the impact core is comprised of at least a rib, but preferably, a plurality of ribs.

1 . A heavy training bag comprising:
 a. A cushion core contained within, and   b. An impact core comprising a plurality of ribs, wherein the ribs of the impact core are filled with an energy-absorbing material;   
       Further wherein the ribs of the impact core maintain a uniform distribution of the energy-absorbing material and prevent the energy-absorbing material from settling. 
     
     
         2 . The heavy training bag of  claim 1 ; further comprising a support core contained within the cushion core. 
     
     
         3 . The heavy training bag of  claim 1 ; further wherein the impact core is contained within an outer cover.

         6 . The heavy training bag of  claim 1 ; further wherein each of the ribs of the impact core comprised of at least a cell. 
     
     
         7 . The heavy training bag of  claim 1 ; further wherein the plurality of ribs of the impact core are horizontally oriented with regard to a longitudinal axis of the bag. 
     
     
         8 . The heavy training bag of  claim 1 ; further wherein the plurality of ribs of the impact core are vertically oriented with regard to a longitudinal axis of the bag. 
     
     
         9 . The heavy training bag of  claim 1 ; further wherein the plurality of ribs of the impact core are diagonally oriented with regard to a longitudinal axis of the bag. 
     
     
         10 . A heavy training bag comprising:
 a. A support core contained within,   b. A cushion core contained within, and   c. An impact core comprising a plurality of ribs, wherein the ribs of the impact core are filled with an energy-absorbing material;   
       Further wherein the ribs of the impact core maintain a uniform distribution of the energy-absorbing material and prevent the energy-absorbing material from settling. 
     
     
         11 . The heavy training bag of  claim 10 ; further wherein the impact core is contained within an outer cover.
