New Flooring and Punch Bags

The new flooring is in place!!

After a having a few problems with the first floor covering we invested in a different material which is perfect for the gym.  We now have a floor which is firm enough for standup and soft enough for takedowns and groundwork.

The undersurface is made up of high density foam, around 60 pieces!  This is now covered by a PVC material which is stretched tight via 90 bolted eyelets (mind your toes!!) and 25 metres of 6mm bungee cord. 

The result is a high performance and safe surface for training.  We also have put in more stansions from which to hang our two 8 metre punch bags which allow 360% movement around both stations.  This means you can train your movement as well as your techniques and fitness using the bag.
