GORUCK has evolved the design of their excellent workout sand bag – here’s the new Sandbags 2.0.
A sandbag is a training tool for strength, power, fitness, and conditioning workout. It builds stability and grip strength and improves your sports performance. It is adaptable and versatile and can be used almost anywhere—at your home, garage, outdoors, or commercial gym.
Here are some of the styles we are going to look at:
Sandbags 2.0 – Overview
What’s new to the GORUCK Sandbags? They now have a triple locking velcro closure system, which is an improvement from the earlier versions with only a double closure. This and the additional bartacks prevent sand leakage and seam failure and fortify stress points. These upgrades were made on top of the industry’s best Scars Lifetime Guarantee and the reinforced, neoprene padded handles.
These steps need more time to do, but these make the sandbags the best and the toughest sandbags in the world. With 42 stitches per bartack, GORUCK exercise sandbags have more stitches and stronger seams than any other on the market. From 34 bartack stitching, the 40lb and 60lb sandbags now have 80.
While others fold webbing onto itself or rubberize the handles, GORUCK took the time to reinforce neoprene padding into every handle they build, which delivers a more secure and comfortable grip that you can hold longer. These sandbags are made from 1000D CORDURA® with silent YKK zippers, and silent zipper pulls. The 40lb sandbag measures 22″L x 8.5″D with 80 bartacks, while 60lb measures 28″L x 8.5″D with 88 bartacks.
Sandbags 2.0 – In Summary
