Picture a movie- a spaghetti Western.
A hard-working farmer or a moxie-filled 49er always goes to town in their flatbed wagon to pick up supplies at the general store.
Inevitably, they always buy some bulging, burlap, grain sacks.
They have to haul them, one by one, up onto their shoulder, walk out the general store, down the steps, out into the mud, toss them onto their wagon and return for the next one.
They do yeoman's work, a half a dozen times or more.
Real tobacco spit and coffin nails stuff.
Now imagine that man is you.

Sandbag Trainer Weight Options:
**Note that this is a sandbag system- it is shipped UNFILLED (NO SAND INCLUDED), but sand or rubber mulch is readily available at your local home improvement store. Sand sells for about $4 for 50 pounds. For more filler options and the ideal one for you, please read here.
You won't enjoy your beer to the max unless it's poured right. The same applies to sandbag trainers. It's all in the fill.
You'll get the most out of your sandbag trainer by filling it directly, without filler bags.
If you choose to go without filler bags, the best advice is to NOT fill your sandbag trainer 100% full. Yeah that's right.
Do NOT fill it up to the brim.
When not using filler bags, fill the trainer to about 85-90% full.
By leaving some room to play with, the trainer responds better, and gives a little but not a ton.
Have you ever picked up a totally full sandbag?
They're like a bag of concrete; hard, inflexible and unforgiving.
Leaving some breathing room in the sandbag trainer allows it to shape, shift, and move with you.
The primary reason to choose to go with fillers bags is if you want to quickly swap out the weight of your trainer with ease if you're training with a partner for example. While the sandbag trainer will feel great full with the filler bags, once you remove one and create extra space, it won't be as pleasant of a training experience as using the sandbag trainer without filler bags. Regardless of the extra space, you'll still have the same training stimulus, however.
Finally, how you fill it, is just as important as what you fill it with. Some people prefer IPAs, some people like stouts, some people like sours. You'll find the same broad selection of filler materials at your disposal. A mix of sand and mulch works well. You have a slew of options, depending on your training goals. Keep in mind different materials have different densities. For more about the best materials to fill your sandbag trainer with please read more here.
The bag seems to be made well. I ordered the 100 pound bag and it came with (2) 40lb fillers and (1) 20lb. I filled them and weighed them to make sure I didn’t overfill them. I tried with everything I had and there’s no way I could put all (3) sand bags inside the main bag. So for now I will only use the (2) 40lbs. I’m hopeful the main bag will break in and eventually allow space for the last 20lb bag.

As always this arrived quickly. I have already done a few sandbag workouts and I love this piece of equipment. I bought the filler bags and everything seems high quality. I'm excited to beat it up some more.
United StatesThe bag is great and really high quality. I got the set with 80 pounds of fillable bags. 10lb bags are really tough to fill due to the small opening. Otherwise, it’s all awesome.
United StatesNice quality. Arrived fast as all the Fringe equipment that I have ordered.
United StatesPicked up a couple bags of sand from Lowe’s and easily filled insert bags with a funnel. Got the 40/20/and a 10 lb insert loaded, I’m sure the last 10lb insert can fit but might need to break in the bag a bit more. This bag was purchased for 40-70lb workouts.
