I had thought the sandbags were for some gym renovation thing. The workout itself was fun. The shoulders-to-overheads, which are normally the limiting exercise, were the easiest part of this workout. I would say the run/jog/carry was the hardest part simply because the sandbag was hard to get a good hold on, which probably was the point. At the end of the workout, my palm muscles were all twitchy from trying to hold onto the bag. The sandbags were not quite long enough the drape over one’s shoulders, which was unfortunate. My traps also hurt now (4 hours later). Everyone finished the workout early with 20 minutes to go in the class, so I also worked on pull-ups and handstand push-ups. I may been able to go heavier than 40# since the S2O were so easy.
Good thing I was in the first group to do the workout we got them all sweaty, and they are covered in burlap so they are not getting cleaned off.
