Been there, done that, and it is good exercise. Not to diss a traditional
shotokan practice, but IMHO a light bag on a long lead is better, once you
have practiced form. It's more exercise and develops footwork & balance.
Better yet is to put the bag on a pulley and have a trainer raise/lower
the bag while you work on it.
You obviously did not see the Steven Segal movie. He was in a coma for 15
years, came out of it, buried a railroad tie in the ground as a makiwari
board and within weeks of his awakening managed to snap the untapered tie
right off with one blow. Plus he was married to Kelly LeBrock! No need for a
weight bag at all.
Did you study Shotokan?
