after you make a bag like in the link, what would you do with it? how would you incorporate it into a routine? and what kind of weight are they normally made up to. thanks.

[Alex Gold]

The point of the sandbag above is that it is adjustable, so the weight you use is whatever weight you can handle.

I like doing complexes with them, and stuff like loading onto a platform, shouldering and walking with the bag overhead.

How you would incorporate it in a routine is an impossible question to answer.

maybe buy a book off him

i have a couple, i'm a fairly strong and 80kg, and find a 35kg bag is about right for me

here's a quick complex:

6 sandbag burpees
6 sandbag squat
6 clean and press
6 lunges (3 per side)
shoulder sandbag 6 times (3 per side)
6 bent over rows
10 burpees

rest a minute, repeat for rounds.
