That was a good workout. #sandbag

Lifting today for my workout. Kettlebells, sandbags and other heavy things. Good to be doing it after a two week break.

Today's #pixel_dailies theme is #sandbag.

Kettlebells, sandbag, resistance bands and other heavy(ish) things this morning.

Followed by t'ai chi in the park. I have forgotten a lot of it, to youtube!

Next was planting our 'rockery'. Its basically using a jackhammer to remove sections of bricks in the low retaining wall at the front of our house and shoving alpine plants in. Any gardening where you use a jackhammer is good.

That was all followed by my least favourite job in the world, removing a massive clot of my wife's hair from the drain to unblock it. I am glad I saved having a shower until after I cleared the drain. I needed one after that.

Quite a busy morning all in all.

Mine, #running while carrying the top half of a suit in a #sandbag shell.

Not too shabby for a #NightRun in dress shoes, no headlamp, 30% on gravel, and ran 7 km in 44min.

The spontaneous fun things one does after a wedding...

Good #StrengthTraining workout this afternoon. Used #kettlebells, #sandbag, #chains, #ResistanceBands, #rock and my #bodyweight

Got my kettlebell over my head really well. Got my sandbag across my shoulders for the first time in ages. Felt good. Sweat feels good too.

Today's #training:

False grip Pull-Ups 5x

Full Body #Sandbag #Workout (approx 28.5kg)

1A. Sandbag Front Squat
1B. Sandbag Slam
2A. Sandbag Romanian Deadlift
2B. Sandbag Zercher Carry
3A. Sandbag Overhead Press
3B. Sandbag Bent Over Row

Repeated A and B for two supersets. Didn't count my reps properly, but it was definitely lower range (6-8). First proper sandbag workout I ever did.

Thanks @ubo for getting my interest up in sandbag training again and finally making me buy one. Worth it! And since I can fill it with up to 50kg, this will last me a long time...

DailyBloggingChallenge (305/365)

Considering the movement with #GORUCK’s #SimpleSandbag one only gets two vertical handles compared to #sandbag and its filler which has a whole arrangement of vertical, horizontal, and side handles. This can make the carrying of such bags more tedious depending on its fullness amount.

To ease the task of carrying one can acquire and use #RuckStraps. This has the benefit of freeing up one hand and giving a larger area to hold onto. Plus it can also mark the sandbags when participating in a competition.

My door sandbag job gets a B grade. Leaking sand because I didn't fold the bag well. Also minor amounts of rain did make it into the door because the same bag was not pushed up far enough on to the door on left. #sandbag

#DailyBloggingChallenge (185/200)

One downside of overpacking a #goruck #sandbag is that one cannot complete a clean as expected. Since the fingers won’t be able to rotate over without being caught in the mid seem.

One option to overcome this hindrance is to use less fingers, so either 3 or 2 instead of the standard 4.
