What are BULGARIAN BAGS? They look like big leather croissants but far from being a ludicrously large delicious snack, they're a very versatile tool for strength and conditioning, all over muscle development, grip endurance and mobility. Around the world competitions are held to give fans of the bags something to train towards and the opportunity to rank themselves against others.
See below for a follow along workout off the Suples website, as well as highlights from our comp last October!
The main event of the championships is the following. It’s just 24 minutes. As many reps as possible for spins, swing squats, snatches, squat and press as well as spin/arm throw. You perform 6min, 5min, 4min, 3min, 2min respectively with just a minute’s rest between each exercise.
Our event is the only one of it's kind in the UK! It will be VERY beginner friendly and you can choose the weight that’s best for you. It’s such an awesome goal to work towards! And a brilliant opportunity to get involved in a growing sport that’s different, niche, interesting and challenging! Especially if you're finding you're stagnating in other training.
We run a FREE class every Friday on the bags at the Temple and there are other times in the week I coach clients on them. If you’d like to see about coming along to a session just holla!
