Sometimes that’s a calculated choice. If you do t have the cash to put down on top quality equipment its ok to get some cheaper now with the expectation of replacing in the future. I’d rather train with cheap kit than not train until I can afford better.

Most of my equipment is either fabricated myself (welded) or modified.

I filled my bags with steroid needles. Every time I pick up a 300 lb bag, I become strong enough to pick up another bag. Now I carry around 10 bags.

I've worked out on traditional heavy bags kzread.infoUgkxp9-sf95nqfjey-uyzxUzQ7m9MXRPK1BE a spherical stuffed "wrecking ball" bag, and now this thing. What I like about it is that it has the heft to stay largely in place so I'm not chasing it around. It's tall enough to allow for headshots and body shots, but it's short enough to give an uppercut somewhere to land. I'm very happy so far. Filling it was a bit of a cluster. For top-offs, I've learned that you can screw the supplied nozzle onto any basic plastic water bottle. I can't speak to durability as I've only had it a week.

Carol Baskin recommends rubbing sardine oil on the body first, then its dog or big cat food.

Due to my circumstances, I can't afford a gym, and I dont have access to anything more than dumbells and 1 inch plates. I dream of competing when I am done with nursing school, but have a lot of work to go before I can compete. I made my own 150lb sandbag out of an army duffel bag 16 bucks on amazon, target laundry bag (4 bucks), and pea gravel. It's done amazing things for me. I've built 10 lbs of muscle since february. Also, gotta thank you, Brian, you are one of my main inspirations for strongman.

Hey Brian, loved the video and will definitely have a go at making some sandbags, I think they'll help massively with my work (car and truck tyre fitter). Unrelated though, I've been using your free programs and entered a deadlift comp on the weekend where I pulled 250kgs (550lbs). I just wanted to say thank you for the advice and all the motivation. I'd been stuck at 180kg (400bs) until I started watching you about 6 months ago and I just wanted to say thanks

Appreciate how in depth and comprehensive the explanations are.

I have been waiting for this one for a while. Super happy for the sandbag video, thank you Brian!

Definitely want that part 2

Flipping rolled up bounce houses is amazing workout. Was a delivery driver for few years and unreal the strength you gain from it

Thanks brother! Really helpful stuff here. I got my first sandbag rigged up this week and tying it off really does change everything - it's like the difference between lifting a dead weight and lifting a weight that's actively fighting you.

It’s scary how I was sitting at work yesterday thinking, I need to make some sandbags to train with... and BOOM here comes Brian with the knowledge

Please do a part 2. I learned a lot from this video!

It's awesome to listen to ur voice getting better from video to video. Hope ur feeling better from video to video as well. Great video yet again man. Thanks Brian

Just ordered one for my garage gym today.....perfect timing for the video, Thanks!!

Brian thank you for all your awesome content. Because of some things you have provided programing and finisher stuff I finally broke the 405 deadlift.. And I feel on top of the world today

You are definetely better. First video of you ever that I had to rewatch to understand all sentences, despite how fast you have always talked. Thanks for the video, Brian!

I just started using sandbags. As a conditioning circuit after my main lifts. It’s such an awesome tool. Thanks Brian, I’m a huge fan.

I love my sandbag! I bought mine to use as a "log carry" and has straps I can wear on my back. I plan on getting heavier ones for the reasons you just mentioned. I planned on using my 50" duffle bag and loading it up with smaller bags to modify weight. But I may just pick up a 19" and 24". Both can be bought new for under $20.

I just got two sandbags after watching you’re strongman starter kit video so this is exactly what I needed to watch. I also was able to get a keg from your other video. Thanks for your very helpful detailed videos!!!

Thanks for the info on sandbags Brian. It's good to hear you sounding better in yourself!

I got my 200 lb sandbag off amazon. Company named shogun was 45 dollars and ive had 2 years. Never had any issues. No holes or leaks.

Got every bit of hard to find info I've been searching for , thank you !

Watching past Brian Alsruhe videos while he uploads a new one.... ☺ Its like you knew what I wanted.

Thanks Brian for all you do.

I bought a 150lb bag. Just filled it yesterday. There's sand everywhere. I dont mean its spilled from the bag, it's just managed to get everywhere from when I filled it. It's in my kitchen, my bedroom, front porch. Like magic sand.

Great video! Love, love, love sandbags! I've never heard cradle pick before. I typically hear vertical pick and horizontal pick. Vertical pick for carries(where you can't shoulder it) and Horizontal for loads. Or in my case(and your wife's I think), I'm too short to do vertical picks on loosely packed bags(more common than you think). So I just do horizontal picks, avoids banging into my knees as i stand. Great upper back work constantly crushing it in during a horizontal carry. Favorite exercise is definitely sandbag cleans for max reps in a set time. Just lap it, get that triple extension as high on your chest as you can, then slam it back to the ground: repeat.

coming here after watching your new sandbag workout video and i can not believe how much BETTER your voice sounds now compared to when you made this video! I hope that's an indication of your general overall health being much better as well! Btw your wife carrying that 200lb sandbag across the gym was just unbelievably impressive! She is a fucking warrior!

Another solid video. Thanks!

Brian love your videos man

Huge fan of the video! I'd be really interested in seeing some more breakdowns of strongman stuff that would be used in training or competitions like keg carries/medlies and bag over bar

fighting with the bag trying to get those last few meters is the really character building part of it :)

Thank you Brian. I have a 190 I was training with. I weigh 213 time to add 23lbs to that bag. Love the videos brother

I think I've already made a comment on this video but Brian is an amazing person for sharing all of what he does and how. He's a beast. I bought a 200lb sandbag, filled it and lifted it... Once. There's a science behind the lift for sure but sweet Jesus what a humbling experience. I absolutely love the raw strength behind power lifting and sandbag lifting. I'm keeping it incorporated into my weekly lifts because I can't possibly get worse than my first one.

I’ve just been looking around KZread for a good sandbag video the past couple of days so you must have read my mind! Definitely up for a part 2 video!

Was thinking about getting a sandbag to practice carrying a casualty. Thanks for the help.

I just recently bought a 200 lbs sandbag. It's a cylinder style bag(and not a sack style), but I still use liner bags because I'd like to be able to adjust the weight and use it indoors during winter without any risks.

Helpful and even offered diys to get started! : )

Brian you are awesome. I will say having just sewn my own copy of a rogue (or any of their similar knockoffs) sand bag. They are not over priced. The amount of time it would take the average person to sew one especially without a good torquing walking foot Machine the "money saving" is negligent. Awesome learning experience, big time consumer.

Looking forward to part 2!

Thank you, Brian. please have more on the sandbags.

Awesome. Thank you!

Not going to lie, I misjudged you at first Brian, my apologies. Well done, thought out, entertaining, and informative video. Definitely subscribed.

YES YES YES on everything you said about other sandbag videos.

Best closing system is to use the ring + tennis ball + zip tie & tape. it helps having a tighter closure and prevents the zip tie from bursting on impacts.

Would love to see a sequel to this showing how it looks when someone with a smaller body lifts the bag and also making your own sandbags

Great video. I'm using BruteForce bags and they have variable weights. I'm using mine for conditioning and getting back in shape so I'm glad I'm NOT using a 220 lb bag. I beat the piss out myself this week with 125lbs. As I get better, I'll up the weight

Finally some sandbag representation!!@

Yes! (On the additional sandbag content)

Awesome content as usual. Thank you. Really glad your health problems are getting sorted. I love the channel

Thanks Brian. Looks like I am making a sandbag tonight. Atlas stones can wait a bit.

very interested in that second sandbag video!

Don’t even have to watch the video to know it’s worth it but I’m still gonna watch !

Would definitely love to see the wifes input. Ive been mixing strong man , crossfit, bodybuilding, and endurance training. My wife is currently getting into the fitness thing and i think she would enjoy and could be encouraged/inspired to see another woman do strongman style workouts without trying to compete. Lets be honest women competing are insane compared to women just trying to workout.

That's so cool ! Please, do another on (natural) stones !! :D

Dirty needles and a dead body reference in the same video! The bar has been set!!

As a retired professional firefighter, I highly recommend sandbag training for firefighters especially laying down and dragging a sandbag across the floor. Great workout for firefighters

❤ The Contents.Ive used a Tractor inner Tube Still going after 5 years 🎉

Hey Brian, Loved the video and in addition to several others about sandbag training I really want to incorporate it into my training. However, based on where I live, I'll really only be able to use them in my small-ish basement home gym. Have you ever had a high quality bag (not home made) break? Obviously the stakes are higher for one breaking inside vs. a garage/yard. and this is more subjective, but is it a still a good addition if I can only do smaller space stuff like lifts, squats, over shoulders, and over bar stuff vs. walks and hard throws.tosses or something?

Was it planned for you, your wife, and Nic to all make sandbag videos? (still waiting for Olu, I’m joking... mostly) You stills all manage to have fresh takes and ways of explaining how useful sand bags are. Great video, and great unofficial Neversate series!

Another option for cheap liners: "Contractor Bags". They come in different thicknesses, can be picked up at hardware stores, and in my experience if you double or triple up on them they can handle 150 lbs (never went heavier than that so maybe more and maybe more if you put more layers, etc?)

Well, now I know pretty much what I need for sandbag training. Sandbag, gymnastic rings, latex bands and possibly a weighted vest. You're set. Calisthenics with bands and sandbag for weight training.

Always loved sandbags. Carries shouldering and squats. Good times

What type of sand have you found to be best for all round bag training? Have read a few guys talking about different types, and having some pack a bit more solid, or mixing different types. Thanks for all you do big man!

yes Part II Please

Luckily here in Vancouver, there's a plethora of dirty needles handy.

This is a real life situation workout that's why i love it

Yes do part 2

Im so glad my gym has sandbags (its my gym BECAUSE it has sandbags and other strongman tools). Lifting barbells and DBs just arent fun. Useful? Yes. But nothing kills me like carrying a 70lb sandbag (working up to 100lbs) for an 80 and back. Its awesome. Thanks for the enthusiasm, Brian EDIT: My gym has a 70-yard turf. As of now, I can carry a 100-lb sandbag on my shoulder (or bear hug) to the end and back. Progress! Now for 200lbs

I bought two dutch army bags put one inside the other, filled the inner one with sand plus weight plates and managed to shoulder 352lbs after training on the sandbag for a year. The bags last a long time, just don't get them wet

What would you recommend for progressing to heavier sandbags to get stronger and lift heavier?

Well, 2 years removed from watching this video the first time and I finally made a DIY sandbag. I think I may be hooked on using strongman implements now.

Damn she’s strong!

Sandbag challenges would be awesome.

My gyms got one of those iron mind sand bags but it’s not been compacted so it’s just a big and heavy floppy bag of sand. I tried using it the other day, picked it up the sand fell to the bottom hitting me in the nuts so I gave up 😂. I’m glad I now know it shouldn’t be like that.

"If you can pick up a 300 pound sandbag, you can pick up a 300 pound absolutely anything else" The intro has straight up facts already.

Standing up with it after lapping is how i keep hurting my back.

I use old tractor inner tubes. They’ll give them to you at the tire shop. Cut a section out, twist one end and wrap it with tape, then I put a hose clamp around it for bonus points. Then fill it up with sand and do the same with the other end. Works real good, cause when you drop it, it’ll expand instead of busting. You could even drop that into a duffle so you don’t smell like rubber afterwards.

I just got two sandbags 75kg and 100kg to use for MMA/BJJ S&C

Please make the sandbag video number 2!
