I'm sure this comes up a lot, I did a search but couldn't find exactly what I was looking for.
I'm planning on getting a free standing bag as there is no where I could put a hanging one. I'm planning on getting a century wavemaster xxl, which I understand is probably the best free standing option.
My questions:
Approximately how much space would it require? I'm thinking at least a 6' by 6' area to allow for proper distancing and space to move around. Does that seem right or am I underestimating drastically?
My house is kind of crowded, so I'm trying to work out where I could fit it and my parents aren't going to want it in the living room or anything like that; I could probably fit it in the basement if we shifted things around, or in my room. Which leads to another question: my room is on the 2nd floor. Would it be too noisy to have it there? I understand that even the best free standing bags slide or rock at least a bit and if it sounds like a buffalo stampede in my room my parents will not be happy.
Summary: how much space would I need and would it be too noisy to have it on the 2nd floor?
I appreciate all replies (and apologize if this has been covered ad nauseum)!
