Great review! I have been waiting on you to review the Madfitter bag. So glad that I didn't go with the Titan sandbag. I just recently received my 150lb Rogue bag. Your Rogue bag is made on the old style. The new Rogue bags are like the Cerberus bag, there is no lace over the zipper. I love my Rogue bag but I may try the Madfitter bag. Wishing your channel the best!

[@TheKurtlocker]

Thank you for the feedback. I guess I need to get a new Rogue bag now...ha

[@elcoyote51]

I love my 150lbs Rogue bag. I accidentally overfilled it and it actually weighs 176 lbs. I drop it on the asphalt, let it roll from a full stride drop on the concrete and have forgotten it in the back of my truck multiple times during heavy rain showers and 3 years later has developed ZERO signs of damage or leakage. I just recently bought the new Red sandbag from Rogue (100 lbs version) and I'm excited big time 😄 Great video sir

[@TheKurtlocker]

Thank you for watching. The rogue bags are solid. The Cerberus bags are right there with it.

[@dragos8839]

@@TheKurtlocker have you tried the strengthshop ones ? I got a 50kg one and it's really good but what bothers me is that it's not completely firm when filled up so I wanna get something like the rogue or cerberus. I'd rather get the cerberus since they look cooler, would you rate them as high as the rogue ones ? Thx

[@TheKurtlocker]

I actually find the Cerberus bags to be slightly better made than Rogue’s bags. I have not had the opportunity to test strength shop

[@dragos8839]

@@TheKurtlocker do you think the cerberus would last after going through the same shit the comment's poster described ?

[@TheKurtlocker]

A lot of folks have different experiences. From my experience, you should be fine. I hate hearing about unresolved equipment issues though

[@jhh243]

Thank you for the quality video brother! Great comparison. The tiny fill spout would absolutely make me return that one bag.

[@TheKurtlocker]

Pretty sure that Titan Fitness has since updated this design

[@Tomino385]

Great video. Exactly what I needed!

[@TheKurtlocker]

Thanks for watching!

[@DylanLasich04]

Well done video! I currently have all IronMind sandbags, but two of them are already having some bottom seam problems and I've had them for barely a year (not to mention having to close them up with a buttload of duct tape is a pain already). Im pretty sure ill go with the Cerberus ones for anything 150lbs and over when I go to replace my existing ones, and maybe the Madfitter or Ludus ones for lighter bags. Thanks for all the details into explaining all the details between the different brands and all their features! 💪

[@TheKurtlocker]

Thanks for watching! The Cerberus bags are awesome in design

[@briand5047]

Thorough review. Thanks.

[@TheKurtlocker]

Thank you for watching!

[@KuahAlex]

I had different cerberus bags (60kg and 80kg) and based on my experiences, the 60kg works amazingly well despite being overfilled (i filled it to 70kg and even slam it sometimes), while i purchased 80kg twice and both ruptured within few months. I'd probably try out the rogue bag next time. Nice video btw!

[@TheKurtlocker]

That would suck to have bag failure that early on. Thanks for watching.

[@erollf1972]

Thank you so much for reviewing the different bags. I just filled my Titan 150 lb bag. Took over an hour to fill using a large automotive funnel....the bladder will hold more the 3 50 lb bags of sand, but you won't be able to close the zipper. The zipper was a challenge in and of itself. The good thing is that is is very firm....and I got this as a return for $20 off. I think I will go Rogue or Cerberus when I move up though.

[@TheKurtlocker]

The Titan bag has a lot of room for improvement.

[@erollf1972]

The Titan bag ended up weighing 159.6lb. after adding 3x 50lb bags of sand. I don't even want to think about scooping 10 lbs of sand out of those tiny holes.

[@TheKurtlocker]

Hahaha. All you gotta do is upend the bag and static hold it upside down for 10 lbs to fall out! Lol

[@erollf1972]

So simple. Should take all I of 30 minutes. Shop vac ftw.

[@TheKurtlocker]

@@erollf1972 that sounds like a much better idea

[@Katrielx]

Great Review Kurt! Thanks. Did the inner bag comes out of the outter bag? Or is it stitched. Thanks

[@TheKurtlocker]

All the examples I reviewed are stitched with the exception of the titan bag

[@peteholman1252]

Thanks for the review. I thought about the Titan bag as I use and like their other equipment but ultimately went with cerberus. I have 140, 220, 260 and 305 cerberus bags and they've held up amazingly well.

[@TheKurtlocker]

I’m switching my entire collection to Cerberus as well. Code Kurtlocker saves you some $$ from them

[@barbellsandgames3721]

Hey Kurtis, out of curiousity. Did you compensate or do anything for the angle of you garage to make you workout area “flat” (since garages naturally have an angle).

[@TheKurtlocker]

There is some thin and progressive dub age type plywood ramp pieces under this platform

[@aviboomboom]

Hey Kurtis first of all thank you for all the hard work! As a vet myself I really want to support our heroes. So my question is - did you got to use the madfitter? Is it good value for money? Do you think the bag will stay unharmed while dropping it/throwing it/* insert some kind of bag abuse*? Thank you again for everything, I hope you and your family are well.

[@TheKurtlocker]

The madfitter bag seems to be the exact same construction as the lighter rogue bags and the same as the Ludus Imperium. I think that the bags will last just fine, especially since they are relatively lightweight sandbags when compared to other strongman bags. I use mine almost weekly and it has yet to show any use and I drop it on textured concrete

[@aviboomboom]

Hey man, I hope you still see this. Finally(!!) I got the madfitter bag, corona times are different it seems. I've got a question - I filled my bag with limestone gravel, I wanted to fill it with sand but heard that humid sand might cause mold and such. What do you think? does sand must ve dried first?? (I got 100 kilos of sand anyway). What do you think about gravel filling?

[@TheKurtlocker]

Gravel filling is fine, it just May weight differently and potentially wear out the inner filler of the bag earlier than normal

[@poodrancher]

Spot on review. Cerberus is the king of the sandbags. Only issue ive had is weights not being very close. The 310lb bag ended up at 293lb. Not a huge deal though

[@TheKurtlocker]

IT can be difficult to always get them perfectly filled. It all depends on the material. I keep some steel shot in the garage to help in these cases. Have you heard of Freedom Fitness? freedomstrength.us/?ref=3952dllz

[@hooskerdoo3130]

I just found get rxd colossus sandbags have you used those before wondering your thoughts.

[@TheKurtlocker]

I’ve never used those ones.

[@JohnKessler]

have you seen that Cerberus just added a new GP sandbag to its line? i got luck as i wanted a 60kg to go with my others as i wanted a slightly larger one from my 45(100lb) bag but smaller than my 80 and the largest GP bag is a 60. i figure it will work for additional exercises with all the handle configurations as i progress in size. the smaller ones look like they might make a good alternative to the throwing bag (as they are currently out of stock) but after talking to Cerberus the bags are made to take a beating but the handles are not made a tough as the one on the throwing bag and they would not recommend them for that use.

[@TheKurtlocker]

I actually saw that they added GP sandbags during their Labor Day sale. I hope it suits your needs well

[@jimsolmer1292]

Do you prefer these larger duffell size bags or the smaller round strongman ones from Rogue? For conditioning and shoulder stuff

[@TheKurtlocker]

I just use the standard strongman sandbags for all my work. Different weights for different work

[@jimsolmer1292]

@@TheKurtlocker Yeah I plan on getting a Rogue Strongman

[@TheKurtlocker]

They’re nice. Don’t discount Cerberus bags though. Code “kurtlocker” will save you 10% from them.

I just looked up the titan fitness sandbags on their site and theyve change over to a normal type of sandbag

[@bojingles39]

I bought a Titan 150 bag and wished I’d seen this first. Titan took about an hour and a half to fill and the zipper blows out every time you drop the bag on it’s side. Stay away!

[@TheKurtlocker]

I was amazed at the design. Amazed in a bad way...

[@grgoss1]

@@TheKurtlocker Is it made for water instead of sand??? That doesn't help the crappy stitching tho

[@TheKurtlocker]

I think it was made to be destroyed. Just an all around poor design

[@JoshR324]

Thanks for taking the time to make this. I currently have the 150 lb Rogue bag and love it, but want a 100 lb and 200 lb to round out my collection. I’ve been tempted to order some of these off Amazon because they’re a little cheaper when factoring in tax and shipping, but it looks like Rogue’s quality is superior, even if on paper they appear the same. Might as well stick with Rogue.

[@TheKurtlocker]

Cerberus is also a great option in terms of quality. Thanks for watching

[@TheKurtlocker]

I’m actually falling more and more for the Cerberus bags lately. Very similar design thiugh

I use Cerburus USA bag and vogtac Dynami

Great detailed review on these bags. I have had no issues at all with my Rogue bags for the past 2 years. Not surprised at all to see another piece of garbage from China/Titan...

[@TheKurtlocker]

I wasn't surprised at the level of quality, but the filler holes literally shook my world up for a moment. My Rogue bag is about 2 years old as well and is a champ.

[@dave-oh3549]

@@TheKurtlocker Liked and subscribed! Really love what you are doing with your channel. I'll make a request, if you ever get the chance, how about reviewing some Iron Mind or Elite FTS stuff? They were both there before Rogue and have become synonymous with quality. They have their own respective niche I suppose, but everything I have bought from Irond Mind and Elite FTS so far has been expensive but of excellent quality.

[@TheKurtlocker]

I did an unboxing on the elite fts American cambered bar. So far I like it in use as well. More equipment will be coming down the pipe

[@user-hr1xv8vc6d]

Buy a pack of 20 gallon garbage bags use all of them had a couple rice and make it the way you want tile, tide, rabbit and duck tape, and have fun and buy drinks with the money you save

[@TheKurtlocker]

I used to improvise sandbags. IMO worth the money to get a quality set at the heavy weights because they will inevitably break.

[@user-hr1xv8vc6d]

Great grandpa is disappointed

[@TheKurtlocker]

What a shame
