I love wailing on the punching bag as much as the next guy, but i just don't have the anger in me it takes to go for like 45-60 minutes on that thing anymore. 20 is apparently where i top out when i'm not being lead on/jerked around by some chick.
Good for mental health, less good for physical health.
It's a fantastic cardio work out. Back when I was being being a lazy bastard I started every morning with rounds on the bag. Then throw in some shadowboxing and you're feeling fantastic.

Take up a martial art. When I was taking karate, I found a lot of enjoyment in going through a kata, or even just a really well-executed side-kick. I love side-kicks, they make me feel all badass and kungfu-y.
My point is that's good physical exertion without needing anger to fuel it.
As soon as i live in a city with ANY kind of dojo in it i am doing exactly that. I live in a piece of shit town right now though... Populated by yuppie windsurfers and rednecks.

Plus it's a great mental workout as well. Keeping combinations fresh and efficient while being fully fatigued takes a lot of clarity.

Wii flailing, you cowards.
From the way you went at that bag, I'd say you've had plenty of practice.
So I've been cleaning since midnight and I haven't even gotten to the dishes in the sink yet. I think I'm going to take my old sheets off my bed, shower, put new sheets on (yes I am that anal) and then screw off all night.

Eureka 7-Surfing robots, boooo
Sadly, when i work out on the bag i either just do controlled hits to the beat of the music (left, left, right, right, left, left, etc) or i try out shit i see on Human Weapon. The savat one had some bitching hit/kick combos that were a BLAST to try on the bag.

What time is it for you, 2:17AM? Do you live in a mansion or something, that it takes so long for you to clean? Or do you scrub everything 3 times with a toothbrush before you can consider it clean?
Bag gloves, yeah. Made that mistake once. Came home drunk, saw the bag, wailed on it a bit (this was back when i was doing my daily hour workouts on it and was supremely frustrated), then did a nice 1-2 on the side of the house. That's when i noticed there was blood on the house.
I had scraped up my knuckles pretty awesomely on the bag. They've kinda scarred now. I use them as a reminder not to be a jackass.

Yeah, two hours. I live in a studio apartment. When I clean I clean -- there are a lot of little things that had to be done and it took a bit of time to do them. I haven't even cleaned the bathroom or kitchen yet. Just a one bedroom apartment.
It wasn't as trashed as you think, I don't know... I'm just particular. Not all toothbrush over everything, I'm not that bad.

That reminds me of my desire to be a butler. But a TV butler, or movie butler. But actually a butler. You'd think there'd be a bigger market for personal servants with a penchant for cracking jokes at his employer's expense. This is why I hate rich people.

You basically just flail for a while.
Edit: Beated.

But other then that? Yeah, it sucks.
e.g. People who enjoy KROQ.

I use both. It's a lot safer that way. And you avoid this:
"So how did you break your wrist?"
"I uh... hit a punching bag."
"HAHA LOSER!"
this is acceptable

What the fuck is KROQ?
Like when the robot tackled the other robot
And the guy jumped out of his robot and pulled a bolt-action rifle out of the cockpit somehow
And then he shot through the other robot's armour with it somehow?
God what a retarded show.
Kitty!

No, that part was lame. But like, the parts leading up to that weren't bad, what with all the air dodging and the slicing and the what not.

It's not a heavy bag or anything, just a stand up one my roomate got for like 120$
It's my older kitty's brother.

Eureka 7 is something like Eva.
What? You like Eva?
Hahahahaahahaahahahahahahahahahahahaahaha
Bwhaahahahgahghahahahaahahahahsauhdsafasdfla l;z
Yes, it is. It's like, a slightly improved re-hash of Eva. I meant more to say at least it's not as bad as Eva.
You mean NGE? What's wrong with NGE? I've only seen one episode so far, but if I ever watch a mecha show, that would be the one.
I agree wholeheartedly. Because pooping is awesome sometimes.
Two kitties!
The first episode is not indicative of the rest of the show at all. It rarely is for any anime ever.
Just, please trust me, Eva is terrible.
To not belive would mean i have to go thru them again.
