Get a knockout home workout with Quiet Punch

NEWS – If you like working out boxing is one of the best ways to build full-body strength. However, most of us don’t have room in our homes for a traditional punching bag. The Quiet Punch doorway punching bag is here to provide you with a knockout home workout.

Quiet Punch is a home friendly punching bag that easily fits into any standard door frame (28”- 36”) thanks to two adjustable tension rods.

It’s lighter than a traditional punching bag, so it doesn’t require heavy chains. No chains mean no loud rattling sounds, so it’s quieter to use.

The bag is made of foam with a PVC casing, so there is no need for boxing gloves. But, it was designed with a heavyweight boxer in mind, so there’s no need to pull back on your punches.

Quiet Punch also provides a handful of free online workout programs to get you started. Now all you need is a doorway and some good old-fashioned motivation.

The Quiet Punch doorway punching bag sells for $125.95 and is available from The Grommet.

The Satechi Type-C iMac hub takes the party from the back and puts it in the front

NEWS – For several years, my primary computer was an iMac and I loved everything about it except for one thing. Apple hid all the ports on the back of the iMac making them awkward and annoying to access. It’s been a long time since I switched from an iMac to a MacBook, and even now, years and several computer updates later, Apple still hides the ports on the back of the iMac. Luckily we have companies like Satechi that build products to solve problems like this. Their new Type-C Aluminum Monitor Stand Hub is both elegant and useful.

The hub brings an SD card and a micro SD card slot up front along with a 3.5mm headphone jack, 3 USB 3.0 ports, and a Type-C port. But that’s not all, it doubles as a monitor stand to raise the iMac 1.63 inches off your desk. The hub is available in silver or space gray for $89.99. You can read more about it by visiting satechi.net and Amazon.

Bluffworks continues their travel wardrobe with Departure Jeans

NEWS – Hot off the press, Bluffworks continues their travel/smart casual clothing line with their recently-released Departure Jeans.  Available in Regular Fit or Slim Fit, these are traditional 5-pocket blue jeans but in typical Bluffworks fashion, they include two hidden, zippered pockets in the back waistband (see right image above) to help with securing important items while traveling.  With a denim fabric made from 68% Cotton, 22% COOLMAX Polyester, 9% Rayon, and 1% Spandex, they will keep you cool and comfortable while remaining machine-washable, which is great for not only travel, but also for going out on the town or even around town for errands.  In fact, they are rated at 11 oz fabric weight per yard compared to 14 oz fabric per yard compared to standard denim jeans, so they will even take up less space in your travel bag.  The Bluffworks Departure Jeans are available now for $125.  Visit bluffworks.com for more info or to order.

Get ready for March Madness with the HoopLight which lights up when you score

NEWS – I live in southern Indiana near Bloomington, home of the Indiana Hoosiers IU basketball team. It goes without saying that people in this area take basketball very seriously and with March Madness right around the corner, it’s time to get your own game in tip-top shape. One fun way to do that is with a HoopLight. What’s a HoopLight? It’s a kit that you add to your existing basketball hoop that causes it to light up when you score a basket. Check out the video below to see what I mean.

The sensor-activated LED light strip mounts on the rim of the basketball hoop you already have and lights up in 1 of a 100 different light patterns every time it detects that a ball has swished through the hoop. HoopLight encourages you to improve your game just so you can have the reward of seeing it light up. Want one? The kit is $119 on hoop-light.com
