Hitting things.
I would greatly appreciate advice on purchasing and installing SOMETHING TO HIT in my home. I have an unfinished basement with exposed beams, and I could hang something from the underside of my deck. I would entertain the idea of a free-standing bag hanger or a punching dummy.
If you have any experience with punching bags or punching dummies, I'd love to hear from you.
My therapist is of the opinion that hitting things is a necessary part of my recovery (long-winded explanation of trauma theory and completing the escape redacted). Also, it seems that it is an upper body exercise I can do without aggravating old injuries.

I highly recommend using something lower-impact instead.
