Sandbag Strength Training - Atlas Stone Bag
Here is a fantastic way to make an atlas stone/very heavy solid sandbag for loading and lifting exercises.
Due to the relative cheapness of this method it would be possible to make several as once made the weight is permanent.
Cost - around 10-12 GBP or 20 USD
Materials required:
Desired weight in bought sandbags (I used 4x25kg bags), note the bags can be split and tied in smaller sizes.
1 x Cheap sheet of tarpaulin and one roll of heavy duty gaffer tape.
Simply lay the bags directly on top of each other on the tarpaulin and fold over and tape very tightly not allowing the bags to move. Once tight and secure roll the bags over and tape around until the whole weight is covered.
