BOB was the first-ever mannequin training bag for martial arts. So, what is it that makes a Body Opponent bag so special? BOB gives you a realistic human torso shape for a striking surface. Since you are training to fight against a human (presumably) this shape allows you to train with a higher level of accuracy than a regular heavy bag or punching bag. The best sparring partner money can buy! A great partner for sparring techniques or target training.

Your Sparring Partner
You’ve seen him on TV shows, in your favorite movies, in news clips and in the windows of your local dojo. That’s right – it’s BOB, the Body Opponent Bag!
BOB is ideal for training in just about all standing martial arts! Any martial art that would use a regular punching bag, heavy bag, or heavy hanging bag, will work with BOB as well. Karate? Sure! Taekwondo? Of course! Tang soo do, muay thai, kung fu? You bet! And if you train a martial art with tactical applications, like krav maga or jeet kune do, then you’ll really notice the value of BOB.
The Iconic Scowl
The attributes of BOB are the ideal training bag for precise target training, such as eye gouges, wipes, and jabs, neck and throat blows, slaps, jawline hooks, and so much more. The humanoid shape of the BOB is the next best thing to practicing on a real person.
The “body” area of the bag can move up and down the central stem. There are seven height settings between 60” and 78” total height. BOB is a great training tool for any martial art. He is sturdy enough for kickboxing, muay thai, karate, taekwondo, and other striking arts. You can practice strikes that are not competition legal, like slaps, palm heel hooks, eye jabs, and more.

Made in the USA, there are many great things about getting your bags from Century. One is the variety. Another is knowing you’re supporting an North American company. Century uses official testing.

Heavy-duty foam
I found Bob to be easy to set up once I used soap n water to help Bob slip on his insert easier. Then I beat on Bob In many ways and had a great work out. Its a big plus to have a Bob for accurate striking. I like it better than a punching bag. The realistic body neck and face makes Bob a completely different striking work out that a punching bag. So far I am a huge fan.
