At Wednesday's bootcamp classes, Eric introduced us to the 32-pound sandbags that he had just made earlier that day. Basically, he filled two army bags with various heavy things (not sure what it was) to torture us with. At first, they didn't look very heavy, but once you reached the sandbag station and attempted to pick it up, you knew you were in for quite a workout. First, he made you pick it up and throw it over your shoulder while squatting. This wasn't that bad, but the bags did get heavy after the second or third try.
For the next round, he made us pick it up as if we were curling it and then continue to bench it over our head. This was tough! But, even though you think you can't actually do the exercise at first, after a couple of tries, it really isn't that bad.
These sandbags really kick your butt! They sort of look like a mix between these two, only green and the top is held with duct tape.
