There is something about sandbags that just builds what I call “brutal strength.” Nothing else seems to do the same thing to you as what a heavy sand bag does. Be strong and courageous!

I've worked out on traditional heavy bags kzitem.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.

It is literally the second time in my life (at 67 years old) that i have touched these bastards and they are everything Brian says they are. I feel it everywhere and that is GOOD. The Titan bags i purchased were on sale so total was about 160. Play sand from Lowes eas 18 bucks for 5x50 pound bags so really, these two bags fully set up arr comparitively inexpensive. Also, the bags are well constructed, pretty easy to fill snd secure and require no plastic bags or anything else. Added to my farmers walks these are great variables to throw into any program.
