I used an Everlast wood beam ceiling mount. It mounts a holder to a stud in the ceiling. It comes with 2 2" lag screws to mount it into the ceiling with, but I replaced them with 3" lag screws. Right now the chain a little long, but I can fix that later.
I have a question tho. I bought a 70lb Everlast nylon bag and one side of it is hard as hell. I almost broke my shin kicking it. The rest of the bag is nice, tho. Is there any way to fix this?
And yes, I’m going to take it down when it’s not in use.

Yes…
Kick it out. It will make your shins hard as hell in turn.
Buy some good jow to get rid of the bruises.
… Or work them out with a baseball bat. When my shins hurt too bad from working the shin kicks on the bag, I use a heavy steel pipe to beat out the hard parts and continue working out.
it worked out good for you cause of this, but i ****ing hate top floor apartments cause of the heat in the winter. i remember living on the 3rd floor of an apartment building as a kid and having my air conditioner on in the middle of january.

Or you could just open a window
What I want to know is how the hell do I get bugs in my apartment on the 3rd floor???
It should. Obviously it needs to be in a stud. I mean Everlast sells that mount with an 80lb bag as a package, so my 70lb bag should be fine. Plus, I replaced the 2" lag screws with 3" ones, so it should hold.
you could probably get away with doubling the chain to raise it up a bit more.
people who visit you will think weird thoughts about you as they look up and wonder what the hook bracket is for. Fertively glancing about the room for meat saws and such…
should do for a while. It might loosen after a while and you’ll have to move it up the stud or mount a bracket to the stud and mount the gear to the bracket.
