Abstract
The apparatus disclosed includes a punching bag member (2) having a body portion (4) and a neck portion (6). A supporting member (8) engages the neck portion (6) for supporting the punching bag member (2) between a pair of vertical members such as in a door frame (10) or the like. The arrangement is such that supporting member (8) engages brackets (12) on the vertical members and supports the punching bag member (2) so that it offers resistance to the user when body portion (4) is struck and automatically returns to its normal position.
