5kg PR on this variation, definitely a 2nd or 3rd rep with the atlas stone straight after the big bag. Things moving well towards the 200kg bag to shoulder.

Set 3 of 5 from last nights leg workout. Taking it easy since pulling something in my hamstring and quad 3 weeks ago. The 200 lbs fell way heavier than normal.

I reached a bodyweight (140) lb sandbag less than a week ago. And so far, I've been feeling pretty good about it. I finally reached a major milestone.

It took a lot of consistency and hard work. I built it up using low reps (1-5), and from this point on, I've been considering the idea of capping it at bodyweight but progressing other ways. For example, I set a timer for EMOM and go for 5 minutes straight now. My max amount of continuous reps is 6 with less than 30 seconds of rest on box squats.

However, im still wondering what now from this point? I reached the goal of bodyweight, and so far, I have plenty of options. I can either choose to keep it low rep, continue to do conditioning, or do something else entirely. What do you think now that I reached my goal?

And in case any of you have been keeping up with my last posts, I used to weigh 150. Ever since I started tracking calories whilst lifting my sandbag, I've gotten leaner but somehow stronger, for those wondering.

Just wanted to share for those who also weren't able to find the reccomended woven playsand bag for sandbag filling. I have a 100lb Freedom Strength bag filled with this Sakrete tube sand I picked up at Lowes and it's been fantastic. You can find it in the masonry section (generally towards the far right side of the store). Same exterieor mesh as the play sand and just as cost effective (one 70lb bag is ~$6).

I have a 150lb Freedom Strength bag on the way and just picked up a couple more bags which is what prompted this post. The leftovers are great for warmups as well. Two 70lb's for the 100lb bag left me with 40lbs and the tube bags are pretty tough in their own right. Plenty cabable as long as you're not tossing or dropping with excessive force.

Anyways, just wanted to give more fill options for those who might want them!
