I went around the woods in my yard and found some rocks and been training with them. I’ve never done strongman type of training and it’s really fun

Overhead pressing a sandbag is extremely humbling.

Alan, you are a fantastic person and give such amazing, achievable, realistic advice. Thank you.

I’m work in landscape construction...this isn’t too far from a typical day for me🇬🇧

Thinking about adding sandbags to my gym stuff. Then this comes on. 🤘

As a broke college kid, I'll be trying these with my bag and all the textbooks I have. Thanks a lot :)

Sneaking out of isolation to get the sand from the local play area 😆 no one will be using it anyway so it’s cool.

Couldn’t have been a better day for this, just made my own sandbag yesterday (girlfriend actually helped and did majority of the work) but very simple and cheap. Mine ran about for $15 because of the contractor bags (mine are 2mil) but you should be able to get away with trash bags double bagged and duct tape. I already had a duffle bag as well so that helped. Mines currently holding 100 pounds but going to keep it at 70 for the mean time. Make it work.

I have built some heavy sandbags recently. A 50-kg-sandbag is somehow barbaric to lift, as compared to a 50-kg-barbell which is babystuff. The asymetric loads are a good inspiration. Thanks :)

77 lb sand bag in duffle bag - kicking my ass - been doing a bunch of dumbbell work until now - awesome thank you Al🙏

Pat Mac would definitely approve of this workout

I am fascinated from sandbag training. So underrated! Love it in circuits! 💪😎👍👊💥🔥

Thank you for continuing to provide me with ideas of what I can do at home for a workout.

[ShredGarage]

I was actually planning on getting sand bags tomorrow.. this is perfect.

This is crazy timing. I went to Lowe’s yesterday and got me two 50lbs bags for 3.85 a piece. But.... if you want to get even cheaper water weight is good also. Tap water filled in a large container

[shawnbeckman]

Thanks for still cranking out the content and useful advice. I wish it didn't take me two weeks to realize heavy sandbags were a good alternative to barbell strength training... Bought me a sandbag and some sand today, can't wait to get at it.

i use bulgarian bags . but just got in this type of sandbag . bought 120lb 150lb 175 and 225 . what a difference from bar weight. these are killer exercises will try them this weekend

Thank you so much for this video!! Been losing my mind in quarantine tying to train at home, but have been following you and BBM content for guidance. I recently ordered a sandbag online because I thought it would be variable and versatile, and it should be in this week. This video could not have come at a better time. Thanks for crushing it and offering so much insight during this tough time.

[marcelloantoniodreier]

Thanks for the great new ideas! Love it!
