Options for Every Style of Training: Choose from round sandbags, duffel sandbags, or Bulgarian sandbags (a favorite among wrestlers and weightlifters for rotational power and grip strength).
Progressive Load Control: All bags come unfilled, so you get to control the weight by how much sand you use. This makes it easy to scale your workouts as you get stronger.
