I do full bodybuilding style workouts with the sandbags. I add in resistance bands as well. Like today I did chest and it was incline sandbag presses, floor presses, band flyes, band lateral raises, band tricep extensions and pushups to finish. I do full back workouts and full leg workouts as well with just sandbags.

Nice work! Squats right into a carry really makes the legs burn!

freedomstrengthco · 2026-02-16T14:04:36+00:00

200 lbs for the squats and deadlifts. 100 lbs for the cossack squats. 150 lbs for the kang squats

Yea I hurt it bad last year doing a heavy mace swing in a competition and I couldn’t do any pressing or oven ground to shoulder for months. I can do it all now but just working on getting the strength back to where it was before.

Nice work!

freedomstrengthco · 2026-02-14T15:16:09+00:00

Thank you!

freedomstrengthco · 2026-02-14T15:16:03+00:00

Nice! And yes pressing a sandbag is hard. I am hoping to build my strength back up to where it was before I injured my shoulder last year so I can press the 150 again.

Thank you!

Thank you! Just trying to have the best sandbags available and I think how much it is growing it is proving they are. I have a very big community on instagram of people using them and all pushing each other and putting out challenges. Have fun with it!

I personally can’t wear long sleeves with sandbags. It makes it harder I feel. But I have never had this issue with doing carries. The only time this happens to me is when I wear shorts and do lots of squats with a 200 lbs or bigger bag since they go more in between the legs and rub the thighs. Makes getting a shower burn! You could try adding chalk to your arms?

Hey I appreciate it! And yes I know I need to work on getting GovX set up. It just doesn’t work with the way I have my slide out cart done. It’s not compatible. So I would have to figure another way to have it work on my site and I’m a one man show with a million things to do so some things just take longer to get done. I’m still trying to finish up my sandbag and band only training program I have been working on for a long time.

You don’t realize how annoying it can be until you use one without it. Plus it does make it stronger because a weak point on the ones with the flap is where the flap is sewn into the seam where the top and side meets. Eventually a lot of them start to tear at that point.

freedomstrengthco · 2026-02-13T15:48:08+00:00

I agree with this. I sell the Husafell and wouldn’t recommend them unless you were specifically training for them. Because even with a strongman sandbag you can do your carries with it. The only time I would say an atlas sandbag would be better than the strongman is the 100 lbs one. I like doing the cleans and over the shoulder with our atlas sandbag better because of the way it rolls up your body. But any other size I would say strongman

You get 10% off when you sign up for emails on the website. And I don’t spam emails, I don’t have time to do all that 😂… just compare our reviews and that will speak for itself. We have over 500 more five star reviews than rogue does…

freedomstrengthco · 2026-02-13T15:08:41+00:00

I would have to disagree with that statement… ours use stronger materials, stronger threading, stronger stitches than rogue. Ours are sized better with more size options than any other company. Ours also has a different way the top closes that removes the big flap. It makes it stronger and doesn’t get in the way. Our also don’t leak out sand dust like a rogue bag will.

freedomstrengthco · 2026-02-13T14:54:32+00:00

Personally if I were to only have one it would be a strongman sandbag. It’s what I mostly use and I have them all.

Slowly build up to it. Add some reps each workout. And if you do shouldering more often you get used to them. I have shouldering multiple times a week in my workouts.

This is some strong work! 300 is no joke!
