I got a Goruck sandbag and really like it. They are extremely versatile to use for training. I have no experience with them but I know Brute Force is well known. I looked at the Rogue but it had less handles than the Goruck.

Do you guys think the brute force kettlebell is worth it? It says 45lbs but I know you can’t fill it completely.

I would get a real kettlebell over the Brute Force one. Repfitness also has a sandbag that is pretty nice. The Brute Force bag is probably the best you buy as far as sandbags go.

I’ve got an 80 lb goruck sandbag as well and I love it. Super durable and versatile. I mostly use it for squats and cleans, and sometimes just fireman carries.

Brute Force sandbags are pretty slick. Have had one for a few years now. Much prefer sandbags, backpacks, boxes, and stairs to the gym. :)

I use the crap out of my sandbag kettlebell. There are a lot of core exercises I do that don’t require the weight of the bigger sandbags that I use it for.

Don't be a jackass with the sandbag. I was in the beginning of December and have just been able to get back to using my wrist at about 90% as of 2 weeks ago...

Yeah I’d get a real kettleball as well - look up Pavel simple and sinister - anytime you’re pressed for time that’s a solid kettlebell workout that’s super quick. They have a cheap book you can get.
I’ve got an onnit sandbag. I think it’s “meh” but reasonably priced, the brute force ones are damn expensive. Those are nice for a home workout as well.
