cline Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Do them whilst walking laterally. +1 I AM going the distance 'Cause all I wanna do is go the distance. Nobody's ever gone the distance with Creed, and if I can go that distance, you see, and that bell rings and I'm still standin', I'm gonna know for the first time in my life, see, that I weren't just another bum from the neighborhood.

Wolfhorde Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Farmer's walks bring the awesome! Already planning to incorporate some into my workout schedule in the future, except minus the treadmill and with KBs and/or indian clubs. If I'd find one with proper weight a tree trunk would also do, haha.

JakeJoh10 Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Great idea, I love farmer's walks. Been doing a ton of one-arm farmer's walks, and they are extremely challenging to the core and entire upper body. Jake My personal health and fitness blog: http://JJStrength.com Link to comment

KingZora Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Farmers walkswith 45lbs bumper plates. Work that grip! I can't wait to see the look on peoples faces when I grab 2 plates and take them out of the weight area up the stairs to the cardio area. I love confusing people at the local Y.

Find heavy stuff (rocks, buckets of sand) and carry them aroundI think people "miss" out on the effectiveness of this because they tend to just pick the lighter weight- you definitely have to pick something heavier than you would normally. LOL like say 150 lb hay bails or 10 gal buckets of water!!! Link to comment
