Atlas or strongman

I’m torn between a 150 lb Freedom Strength Strongman bag and 150 lb Atlas bag. Myurrent bags are 30, 75, 100 and 200 lb all strongman. I want the 150 to be my high-use middle bag for SGUs, shouldering, carries, squats, cleans/tosses, plus occasional rows and presses.

I like the idea of the Atlas being harder and more awkward (thinking awkward functional strength), but I don’t want to sacrifice so much versatility that I regret not getting the standard Strongman bag. For people who’ve used both, can you still realistically do SGUs, shouldering, carries and similar full-body work with the 150 Atlas, or does it become mostly a stone-lift/loading bag?

Also curious how the 150 atlas dimensions compare with the 150 strongman, specifically freedom strength. I know you'll pitch in thats why im asking here :)

Wanted the flagship

Saved up for a few days and bought the big boy plane. Now back to max10s or 787 8s for a bit.

Any better planes to focus on? Generate roughly 40-50m net profit daily at the moment not including the 380. Did the math and hover around 70-80% margin depend on the day. Margin jumped up big time when I got rid of the smaller fuel/co2 hungry planes and went to the max10s. Made a big difference in take home money.

Finally shoulderer my 200lb

Around 8 months ago, couldn't even move it at 200 so I dropped it to around 150 and worked with the 100lb bag more. 150 turned to 165 for a while. Finished my running cycle and back on strength, decided I would try it out today. 3 sets 1 g2s each side. 6 reps total. Felt so good to get this thing up. Going to play around with this a while but excited to be shouldering more then my body weight. Now to just get comfortable with it. Other then just going through the motions, anything you did that made the bag feel...natural, comfortable?
