Got one of these a few days ago (100lb), just waiting on the 200pounder now.
Figured I'd give em a name for fun.
Some that friends have suggested.

It sounds like a good exercise because you also train balance and stability, and due to their form you're always training your core.
But I'm not a doctor so I'm just assuming shit

They're fun and great for that "strongman conditioning" shit. Pick up a 200lbs one and walk around with it.
My heaviest is 250lbs and it's getting a bit light for me. I'd get a 300, but I don't really have the room for it right now.
I'll echo the sentiment that they're heavier than you think. There's a lot of technique involved in the pick. Go look up Brian Alsruhe's videos explaining what to do.
I cant believe people pay for these stupid things just go outside and dig a bunch of dirt and put it in a sack or something

I did make my own that I had for a while, it busted open when I dropped it and I had to clean up a fuckload of sand.
Hopefully I'll have these for a while.

Did you really buy branded sand?
Adam Martin
They're not stones and the brand isn't Titan fitness, but why not go with the Greek theme? Atlas, Prometheus, etc?

It does seem silly to pay big money for what is basically a bag of dirt or sand you can get almost free (or actually free if you don't have to buy or make a bag first).
Cooper Ortiz
The strongman bags can handle a lot more weight and abuse without ripping. They're lapped and loaded like stones and when you're doing a carry medley you don't have the luxury to let them down easily.

Where do you buy stiff sealed sacks that are comfy to use and will last years of abuse?

finding a good shape and proper weight one would be a fun too
Caleb Jenkins
Good answer. It's not had to make up something, double up on sacks, etc. I can get all the sand I want at a beach or just fill with dirt.
