Abstract

An exercise device utilizing a punching bag and at least one telescopic pole is provided. The punching bag may include an outer covering and an internal compartment filled with a filler material. The telescopic pole may include a first end and a second end. The first end and the second end are configured to abut against a door frame, securing the telescopic pole in between a doorway. The punching bag is attachable to the telescopic pole.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An exercise device comprising:
 a punching bag comprising an outer covering and an internal compartment comprising a filler material within; and   at least one telescopic pole comprising a first end and a second end, wherein the first end and the second end are configured to abut against a door frame securing the at least one telescopic pole in between a doorway,   wherein the punching bag is attachable to the at least one telescopic pole.   
     
     
         2 . The exercise device of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one telescopic pole comprises a first telescopic pole and a second telescopic pole, wherein the punching bag is attachable to the first telescopic pole and the second telescopic pole, and thereby is suspended in between the first telescopic pole and the second telescopic pole. 
     
     
         3 . The exercise device of  claim 2 , further comprising at least one elastic band comprising a first end with a first hook and a second end with a second hook, wherein the at least one elastic band runs through the punching bag and is attachable to the first telescopic pole and the second telescopic pole. 
     
     
         4 . The exercise device of  claim 3 , wherein the at least one elastic band is two elastic bands crossing one another within the punching bag, wherein each hook protrudes from each corner of the punching bag. 
     
     
         5 . The exercise device of  claim 4 , wherein the first telescopic pole and the second telescopic pole each comprise two U-brackets formed to receive and secure the hooks. 
     
     
         6 . The exercise device of  claim 4 , wherein the punching bag comprises:
 the outer covering comprising a front covering and a rear covering, forming the internal compartment in between;   a soft layer of foam adjacent to the rear covering and comprising crisscrossing channels, wherein the two elastic bands are disposed; and   a dense layer of foam sandwiched in between the soft layer of foam and the front covering.   
     
     
         7 . The exercise device of  claim 6 , wherein the front covering and the rear covering are stitched together. 
     
     
         8 . The exercise device of  claim 1 , wherein the first end and the second end of the telescopic pole each comprise substantially flat ends substantially perpendicular to the telescopic pole. 
     
     
         9 . The exercise device of  claim 8 , further comprising a padding attached to each of the substantially flat ends. 
     
     
         10 . A method of setting up an exercise device comprising:
 suspending a first end and a second end of a first telescopic pole against a door frame, thereby suspending the first telescopic pole in between a doorway;   suspending a first end and a second end of a second telescopic pole against the door frame, thereby suspending the second telescopic pole in between the doorway;   securing a top end of a punching bag to the first telescopic pole; and   securing a bottom end of the punching bag to the second telescopic pole.
