when i punch the heavy bag, obviously i am using my legs a lot for generating the force through my body for each punch.
but i'm considering punching the heavy bag while being seated (and will need a padded wall directly behind the chair/bench to keep stable).
it would make my upper body do all the work and be good exercise for it.
my question is, will it be safe for my back or will i be risking back muscle injury?

^ i already workout when i punch the heavy bag standing up, so the sit-down punching will be in addition.
what i want to see is how punching the heavy bag while sitting down impacts my upper body.
i'm just wondering if anyone else has tried this, and whether its known to cause injury (because its utterly unique).

heavy bag while sitting is the weirdest idea ive ever heard.
Working on a heavy bag is mainly for cardio, technique, power and practicing combo...in no way it is for muscular development.
being on a chair will negate all of the above....you dont risk any injuries if u do it sitted , u'll just waste a lot of time.
