I am looking into how to build a diy sandbag for heavy lifting at home in Texas. I want to add some strongman style training to my routine but I do not want to spend a lot on a professional sandbag if I can make one myself.

I have heard of people using military surplus duffel bags and heavy duty trash bags to hold the sand. I want to know how to seal them so they do not leak all over my garage floor. I also want to make sure the handles are strong enough to withstand being thrown around.

Does anyone have a favorite diy sandbag design? I am looking for something that I can easily change the weight on as I get stronger. If you have a guide on the best materials to use please let me know. I am ready to start some heavy carries!
