Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Perfect for working out on the go

Really happy! Delivery was quick, communication was spot on, and the sandbag itself is really great quality.

I live part-time in a camper van, so needed something compact but effective. This ticks all the boxes. I can do everything I need with just one bit of kit, instead of hauling around loads of weights.

The workout videos have been a big help too, especially as I’ve never used anything like this before.

Order was easy to place, great piece of kit- 5*

Order was easy to place, I went for the 30kg option, but what made this order special was the pace of the delivery and the superb comms from Jon.
Listen, if you are looking for a piece of kit that you can adapt to suit you very easily, maul about, needs minimum space to do exercises, and will assist you and different parts of your body, you're describing the 55. I'm using it for a 100km Western Front tab in October, as i needed something that is at my fingertips.
Loads of videos and ideas for similar product style training on YouTube, but you do what you want with it, at a pace and weight that suits you. Dog walkers are wary of me as I maul mine outdoors, but absolutely worth the investment.
Would definitely recommend this product and these guys.
Great piece of kit.
