I like this one.
Funnily enough I had a client at the weekend looking to take the workouts outdoors over the summer and break away from standard gym routines.
Now I can see lots of variations of this type of sandbag/sprint workout.

Can these exercises be used for young children 7-11?

Like it. I imagine you could also do this sort of thing with medicine balls....
