Free Event
Come join us for a Sandbag workout that also explores the incredible areas of Austin, TX near Zilker Park, the Hike and Bike Trail, and the Barton Creek Greenbelt!!!
Start and Finish Location: The Monkey Tree by Barton Springs in Zilker Park
What to bring and what to know:
Most people will be wearing a backpack with weight in it, aka a “ruck”, but this is not required. Weight vests or nothing is fine as we’ll have sandbags to play with too! The recommend ruck weight is 50lb/30lb for extremely advanced ruckers, 30lb/20lb for experienced ruckers, and 20/15 for non-experienced ruckers. MovementLink Recommended Ruck: GORUCK Rucker, but just throw things in any ole’ backpack to get started.
Some bring their sandbags just in case, but Kyle will have a variety of sandbags (120s, 80s, 60s, & 40s) for the group to share. MovementLink Recommended Sandbags: GORUCK Sandbags.
There are water fountains around, but bring plenty of water, electrolytes, and any nutrition you feel like you need. The event will be between 1.5 and 2 hours.
We host this event rain or shine. Wear workout clothes and shoes capable of trail running and getting wet/muddy and prepare for getting back in your car afterwards.
These workouts are designed to challenge you at your level, regardless of if you are advanced or beginner, as long as as you’re willing to grind.
