Clach cuid fir , manhood stones (but equally worthy of challenging women), are a Scottish tradition. Lift the one outside a fellow's home and he might consider you worthy to be his guest; and if you were a lad moving into manhood, a successful lift earned you the right to wear a feather in your cap.
Lifting stones is demanding, to be sure, but a way to gain many of the challenges and benefits in an eminently more versatile, not to mention cheaper and safer form is via the wonders of sandbags.
Indoors or outside, our Tough-As-Nails Sandbag is made for tough stuff, like lifting, carrying, throwing, loading--and it trains your grip each time you work out.
The Large Sandbag is 24" x 36" and holds 300 lb. of sand fully loaded; coarser-grained sand works best.
Sale sandbags were used once in a demo and have some grains of sand inside.
