No suggested weight for this one. We know that your sandbag is probably just pre-loaded. BUT - lower the reps a bit if necessary due to your bag being a bit heavy to make this happen in the 18 in time goal.

width, heels down. Stand tall. Tighten the belly. Arms straight. Reach the hips back slightly and bend the knees to dip. Keep the sandbag close and arms straight. Stand up hard and fast!

You will rotate the elbows around and through FAST to allow the sandbag to land on the biceps in the bottom of the squat.
In this squat position heels are down, knees out, chest up, belly tight, butt lower than knees, no plopping or rounding, elbows high! Drive through the heels and drive knees out to stand. Lead with chest and elbows, stand fully to complete each rep. For the next rep you will lower the sandbag back to the hips.
For the side to side sandbag thrusters you will have the bag on one shoulder. Squat to the bottom. Stand up hard and fast and use the momentum created by the legs to press the bag up and over to the other side!
You may also choose to do a thruster from the front of the shoulder and press to lock out overhead.
