Looking to optimize bag collection
This community is amazing! I came in as a kettlebell enthusiast (can you tell?), and the videos made you all look like absolute gorillas. I wanted to be one too, so I got a 150 lb bag (seen in the background). It was terrifying forever, but I kept touching it and eventually it became easier to manage.
For reference, I’m 5’10” 180 lbs.
The bag in this video is a 200 lb Rogue bag filled to 175, which was a much easier leap for me than full 200. I’m not quite there yet, but want to plan for the future. I only have 150 and 200 lb bags. I’d love to try a Freedom Strength bag because I see the owner post his badass videos on here all the time and I want to support him.
The question is: do I get a 175 lb bag from them, then fill this one to 200? That caps me out at 200 for now, but that will probably last me a while. Or, do I progressively fill this to 200, creating a greater gap from my 150, and then just go for a 250 bag which I could partial fill to 225? That leaves me without the 175, which would be my next step for floor press (I can do the 150 bag for about 8 reps per set)
I know there’s no single right way, and the awkwardness is a feature. Curious what you all think.
