Typical weight heavybag used by LHW, CW, and HWs?

I wanted to pick up a heavy bag to start training since my gym is going to be closed for a long time. And was wondering what weight bag is typically used by the heavier classes LHW+? Appreciate it.

Get yourself a big water bag. Not only is it easy on your fists but it will build your muscles faster...?Rockin'

I was going to ask about water bags on the training forum, thanks for the info. I might just pick 1 up this weekend...

They're the best, but you'll need a very strong hanger they're very heavy.

When you guys say “water bag” are you speaking of the tear shaped bag or the standard tube shaped variety?

Seems like a good idea. What weight should I get it and fill it up to? I was reading some websites say buy one that is half your bodyweight. So about 100lbs for me, but other say someone my weight should be using about 150.
