Robert Oberst's Tips for Sandbag Training 

Puss weight

@@wordupmagazines32 insecurity really shows lmao

Gotta start somewhere.

If its heavy for you, and you feel its a struggle that means thats a good workout...then little by little you start increasing...sooner or later that 50lb will your warm up

Too light

@@briangrose9847 im 165 and carry and squat the 200 just fine. Get strong with the 100 or 150 and you’ll be good

How did it go?

@@goonerinSP 90kg was too much, but luckily I filled it with liner bags. 60kg(132 lbs) was perfect. Stuffed it with some old clothes I was going to donate to add some more volume. Now I am at 70kgs, but I have more liner bags and sand so I can fill it with increments of 10kg(22 lbs) in the future. Cylinder sandbags are supposed to be filled directly with sand, but it works great the way I ended up doing it. Not as packed as it's supposed to be yet, but it's good enough. A little more work to fill it using liner bags, but I am very glad I made sure to get some. Never touched a sandbag before so I guess I was a bit ambitious with 90kgs, but at least I have some room to grow stronger with it before I need a bigger bag.

@@AageKush If you don't my me asking, how much do you deadlift and row? Trying to figure out what weight I need for a bag

@@ricktunnissen3407 I haven't been able to deadlift or row after the lockdowns. I maxed 150kg after maybe a year of training, but then I started doing block pulls instead so it's hard to say. I can do plenty of pull ups, but I don't have any where near enough weights to row heavy. I can row 40kg for reps, but I don't know my max. My advice is to buy a big bag. Maybe even heavier than 90kg and use liner bags in increments of 10kg. And then find something that adds volume without much weight. I used some old clothes, but you can be creative. 60kg was surprisingly difficult for me, but it was just light enough for me to start of with. Then I got stronger pretty fast(anytime you try a new lift you progress pretty quickly). So you're probably going to be much weaker initially than what you end up working with.

@@AageKush That is quite the reply, thanks man.🙏 Given me some food for thought

That’s my problem
