Sandbag Workout

Sandbags have been used for many years for strong man training; they haven’t really changed much over time - fill a bag with sand and lift. The problem was that you couldn’t change the weight, once the bag was sealed the weight was determined for good. But now, with developments, the new sandbags have arrived and can be used by everyone from the regular gym monkey to a martial artist doing top training.

A filler bag is now used inside a specially designed holdall that allows you to change the weight of the bag fairly quickly. Also, the grab handles on the bag mean different exercises can be completed from cleans to presses, squats and rotational exercises etc, which weren’t possible before.

Watch the video below for a combination workout of body weight and sandbags.
