Used in Tactical Games competitions. Built with 1680D Ballistic Nylon and a full-size integrated liner for superior durability and balanced weight distribution. Trusted by 1,525+ athletes worldwide.
The Freedom Strength Training Sandbag is built for athletes who demand more from their equipment. With 10 ergonomically placed neoprene-padded handles ā not plastic, not rubber, not bare fabric ā you get a confident grip no matter the movement: clean, carry, press, squat, or throw.
Built from 1680D Ballistic Nylon with exceptional abrasion resistance, this bag is engineered to outlast years of heavy training. Internal webbing reinforcements at every stress point mean this sandbag won't fail when you push past your limits.
Most training sandbags use small, separate filler bags that bunch up inside, creating dead space and an unbalanced load. This causes two problems:
Freedom Strength uses a full-size integrated liner ā the same professional design as our competition-proven Strongman Sandbags. The liner fills the entire outer shell, so sand distributes evenly throughout the bag for a balanced, natural feel on every movement.
This isn't a small detail. It's the difference between a sandbag that feels like a quality training tool and one that feels like a lumpy sack of sand.
Full-size integrated liner ensures even weight distribution and balanced feel
10 ergonomic neoprene-padded handles for confident grip on every movement
"This was my first Freedom Strength training bag (I have 3 strongman bags already) and I love it! My last off-brand handled bag started leaking within a few weeks, but this one is extremely durable. I also love the handles, all other training bags I've had have had handles that are way too long and thin, the ones on the Freedom Strength bag are much more functional. It's a great training bag and I 100% recommend it"
ā Kindall M., Verified Buyer
"I used my sand bag in a fitness and shooting competition. We tortured this 100lb bag for 2 days straight throwing it over objects and slamming it in the ground. These bags are tough as nails! Couldn't be happier"
ā Zac W., Verified Buyer
"Love my sandbag. The quality exceeds expectations. I also LOVE how easy it is to fill with sand. The design was definitely made by those who lift and use them. Highly recommend!"

Two major differences set Freedom Strength apart: (1) Full-size integrated liner ā Most competing sandbags (including GoRuck and Rogue) use small, separate filler bags that bunch up and create dead space. Freedom Strength uses a single full-size integrated liner that fills the entire shell for even weight distribution and balanced feel. (2) Superior materials ā Freedom Strength uses 1680D Ballistic Nylon (68% more abrasion resistance than the 1000D Cordura used by Rogue and GoRuck), combined with neoprene-padded handles, built-in funnel, and internal webbing reinforcements.
Beginners should start with the Small (40-60 lbs). Intermediate athletes training for CrossFit or general strength do well with Medium or Large (60-100 lbs). Advanced athletes and strongman competitors should look at X-Large through Monster (125-250 lbs). For a child or youth athlete, the Kids size (15-25 lbs) is purpose-built for smaller frames.
We recommend dry play sand, available at most hardware stores like Home Depot or Lowe's. Avoid wet or damp sand as it can add unpredictable weight and may affect the bag over time. Do not fill beyond the maximum recommended weight range.
No ā all Freedom Strength sandbags ship empty. This keeps shipping costs low and lets you fill to your preferred weight using dry play sand available at any local hardware store.
Freedom Strength training sandbags are built from 1680D Ballistic Nylon which has 68% more abrasion resistance than the 1000D Cordura used by Rogue and GoRuck.

Training sandbags are extremely versatile. Common exercises include: sandbag cleans, squats, deadlifts, shouldering, ground-to-overhead, overhead press, bear hug carries, shoulder carries, suitcase carries, bent-over rows, get-ups, and rotational movements. The 10 handles allow for varied grip positions suited to all these movements.
