This is only the second pulling harness I have ever used. It’s not as easily adjustable or versatile as the Spud, but it is far cheaper. I would not use this harness for group workouts or a competition, but for home training, it does the trick.

It does what I need it to do. It’s the right firmness for my IT band, which is the primary reason I bought it. I’ve had it for 5-10 years and it only has some minor wear on the ends.

I have the 120lb version. The filling funnel is well made, but the Velcro on the roll top closure does not seem as robust as other bags. Overall, it’s on par with other Amazon sandbags. I’ve had no failures yet, but time will tell.

Adding 2 layers of 1/4 matting really helped deaden the dropped weight. It works for log, sandbag and keg fairly well so far. It also helps prevent the log from rolling off, or the tires tipping up on one end when using log, which happened a lot when I was using tires alone.

An inexpensive, versatile piece of strongman equipment. Filling with sand can be a long, slow process but it’s worth it. If you let your sand dry, the process is MUCH easier. Use a rubber fernco cap, not the clean out caps with the wingnut. The wingnuts will tear up your forearms. Mine is nearly filled with a combo of multi-use gravel and play sand and it’s 175lbs.

I don’t have any complaints. They are well built, look nice and hold my weights. Come with hardware for various upright sizes.

These are ok. If I didn’t also own the Fringe ones, I would like these a lot more. These have a little slop to them, and the lower pin will not fit depending on where the safeties are, especially if you have Westside spacing

I would love to have the quick release roller j-cups but these are pretty good, despite the time it takes to change them. They roll smoothly, protect the bar, and feel very solid.
