The baddest of bad training tools. For hardcore athletes only.
Warning: Not recommended for amateurs or anyone not ready to feel the pain.
Update: This Power Bag has handles.
It offers more training options and exercise variations than our standard Power Bag. We reckon it's pretty cool - hope you do too.
Sandbag Training
Let's not beat around the bush here. Sandbag training is tough. It’s hardcore and aimed at those individuals that like to push themselves to the limit. If you’re not ready for this don’t go further.
OK, now we’ve got rid of the sissies let me tell you about Power Bags and how training with them can turn you into a hardcore machine.
Power Bags are awkward. They’re not like those perfectly balanced tools you’ll find in those pretty health clubs. They’re raw, ugly and darn right brutal to handle. They literally have a life of their own as the centre of mass continually moves and shifts as you try and tame it.
This means that you have to be on the ball to use them. You’ll be forced to integrate your whole body to keep the bag under control; your back, hips, grip and core will be screaming for a break in minutes. Power Bags give an intense and cruel workout like no other.
There are hundreds of exercises you can use for this old school device. Use it for conditioning or just pure strength. Lift, drag, throw, carry, squat or press it. You are only limited by your imagination. If you want to learn from a pro, pickup Brian Jones’ ‘Complete Sandbag Training Course’ for the most comprehensive book on sandbag training ever written.
Our Power Bags are built to last
Fill the inner bags with sand, zip it up and you’re ready to go. You can load it with 10kg (if you’re a sissy) or fill it to the brim with 30 odd kg of dead weight sand- we recommend using a courser grade of sand.
The Power Bag pack includes:
One 70cm x 25cm sandbag made from very heavy duty nylon Cordura fabric. This fabric is rip proof and abrasion resistant.
3 different sized inner bags 75cm x 23cm, 55cm x 21cm and 43cm x 12cm. These come empty.
Sand not supplied.
The Power Bag is the ultimate free weight and will give you a break from the tedious and often boring routines associated with gym training.
User Guidelines:
For longevity of your Power Bag, avoid dropping from over head.

The only workout tool you'll ever need! The power bag is awesome! I love it. I am a fairly fit individual, training HARD 6 days a week. I used it for the first time this morning & was exhausted. It really pushes you to another level.
The only thing that could be improved is to have a handle in the middle of the bag, so you can do centre swing, single arm overhead press etc. Also, would be better to have maybe 5 x 5kg inner bags rather than the 3 odd sizes (3,7,15kg).
Adds fantastic intensity b& variety to your workouts.

Great workout tool Really happy with my sandbag- very sturdy and well made. The intensity of the workout increases as you fill the bag, so it's the kind of thing that will last forever and keep challenging you.
The only thing stopping me from giving it a 5 star rating is that there's no handle lengthways along the side as some other sandbags have. This would be great for shoulder presses etc and would make the product perfect.

Awesome product for building strength and power The power bags are a must addition to anyones home gym or fitness studio. Replicating olympic lifts with the power bags are a an easy and effective way to build strength, speed and power all at the same time whilst being a lot safer then using barbells. If you don't have a power in your gym or studio then i highly suggest you get on it and buy some as they are a must for gaining real results.

If your not wrecked from using this your doing it wrong Get the book if your going to buy this, a lot of creative ways to work out. I've mostly used this for forearm & grip strength but also lunges, a good tool and your only limited by your imagination when it comes to exercises. Feels a lot heavier than it is, great for core stability. Use this a lot and you'll get fit or die trying (hopefully the former).
A: The Power Bag with Handles comes with 3 different sized inner bags 75cm x 23cm, 55cm x 21cm and 43cm x 12cm. These come empty.
• Guys,
Is it the same shape as the standard Power Bag but with handles ?
A: No it's a completely different design. The Power Bag with Handles has a tubular design where as the standard Power Bag being more of a true old school sand bag is essentially a tied off sack.
• Will you guys be bring out a heavier sandbag with handles?
A: It's not on the cards at this stage. We do have the standard Power Bag which you can load up with a lot more weight, or if you really need handles the blue Aqua Bag (slug) can be filled up with up to 35ltrs which will weigh around 35kgs.
• are they made so that the sand you put inside doesn't leek out?
A: Yes, they come with Velcro inner bags so sand leakage is generally a non-issue.
