Quiet Punch is the Perfect Tool for At-Home Boxing (and Working Through Some Rage)

With all the negative news out there these days, proper stress relief is more important than ever. Over and over again, exercise is proven to be an excellent source of decompression and boxing has become popular among a variety of people, from fitness influencers to busy professionals, who want a 21st century update to the stress ball.

If you don’t have the money or the time to maintain a gym membership, getting in a daily workout can be tough. However, boxing instructor and gym owner Brian Pedone has come up with a rather novel solution. Enter The Quiet Punch: a miniature punching bag that attaches to your door frame and takes the same beating as a normal bag chained to a post.

Try The Punch Preview

Setup is pretty easy. Two lightweight suspension rods fasten to a door frame (much like a shower curtain rod). A pad with bungee ropes attaches to the first bar, which is set above your head, and the second bar is placed just low enough to create tautness. The reverberation is silent, so you can practice while not disturbing your neighbors or lovers, and the whole package is easily transportable and great for travel.

The Quiet Punch comes with a phone app that can track your progress on the bag. The rig includes a clip that secures your phone above the bag (and out of the way of the action) so you can view a variety of video workouts designed for the equipment. The workouts range from beginner to advanced and are available in 15-, 30-, or 45-minute segments.

The Quiet Punch is going through allocated orders now. You can purchase yours here and finally have a way to quietly work out your rage from the comfort and privacy of your own home.

The best Doctor Who episodes for new fans to watch (just in time for the 60th anniversary special on Disney Plus)
Check out the highlights from the long-running show
David Tennant as the Doctor in Doctor Who.

How well do you know Doctor Who? Because if you're a newcomer to the long-running franchise, there's never been a better chance to jump on board the hit sci-fi series. This month, the first of three new Doctor Who 60th anniversary specials will premiere on the show's new streaming home, Disney+. Doctor Who season 14 will follow in 2024. Casual fans may see the "season 14" and instinctually think that the show is too impenetrable to get into. But if hardcore Whovians really wanted to scare off outsiders, we'd point out that the show maintains its continuity all the way back to the original series in 1963. Between the first incarnation of Doctor Who and the current one, there have been almost 900 episodes to date.

Don't worry; you won't have to watch all of them to get on board with the show. You don't even have to watch all 13 seasons of the revival series. That's because Doctor Who has a unique way to reset its status quo every time the leading actor decides that they want to step down. And once you understand it, it's not that difficult to grasp. Now it's time for some Doctor Who 101, as well as the most accessible entry points for new fans.
