What are some good hooks to mount stuff to my rafters in my basement? I'm heading to the hardware store tomorrow.

I just want to mount a 75 lb punching bag, gymnast rings and some pull-up handles to my rafters. I want to be able to easily take down the punching bag when needed so I was thinking of a hook that could easily lift off.

Would mounting to one rafter be fine, or should I create a span between two or something? I also don't want to fuckup my floor.

i have a pretty short basement, maybe 6 and a half feet between the bottom of a rafter and the floor.

You want eye screws. The size depends on the load. Probably looking at 1/2" which has a 200lb working load. If you want to span more than one joist use a 2x4 and lag screws but nothing you've mentioned would require it. Your joists can quite easily handle a couple hundred pounds.
