I'm lucky to have a hundred yards long driveway , I'm obsessed with it , I'll do it twice a day sometimes , you can't imagine the energy levels you'll achieve if you have never done it . good luck to all.

@@marcosrua7223 ii mean if u do it only once a day its not really that bad. its more akin to doing 4-6 sets of bicep every day rather than doing 8-12 total sets of bicep twice a week. at the end of the week u have done the same amount of sets to the muscle. as long as ur recovery is good it doesnt really matter that much. mayyyybe resting 1 day in between would make it slightly more productive but the difference is so small it doesnt really matter unless u are like extremely advanced in working out or trying to compete.

nice video :) like !

I do 1.0-1.5km walks with 2x30 lbs. kettlebells every other day. Farmer's Carry --> Rack Carry (kettlebells rested on shoulders to rest grip) --> back to Farmer's. It's different than what you're doing; not especially heavy, but I never put them down and so I get a good tension workout and can practice mental discipline (I spend 60% of every walk wanting to put the kettlebells down). The most visually apparent result is in the traps. My calves have become more prominent, as I walk on the balls of my feet (akin to how runners are advised to always land on the front half of foot). With 45ish minutes per week over the last 9 months, I'm pleased with the results.

@ROBLIFTS

Жыл бұрын

So go back and forth between a regular farmer carry to resting them on your shoulders, in order to never put them down?

@azzgunther

Жыл бұрын

@@ROBLIFTS Exactly that. Once on the verge of dropping them, flip them up onto shoulders, to be rested there somewhat loosely (intent is to rest the grip so only hold them enough to keep them from rolling off shoulders) as I continue walking. This is a good core exercise, as I'm stabilizing a good bit of weight on shoulders while navigating terrain. Keep walking until shoulders and upper arms are about to fail, and gently drop back down to Farmer's Walk. Different muscle groups emphasized, so alternating between these two holds offers recovery from the other. So far I haven't been able to go beyond 1.5km. Not sure if it's a mental or physical limitation. Learning my capabilities. I might incorporate your idea of "go heavy" by using heavier kettlebells for slightly shorter distances, work that up, and then drop down to 30 lbs. again and see if I can get 2km.

Yes, these do make you noticeably stronger.

Dude, 1/2 an inch on your forearms is a huge body composition change. Can I make one suggestion, don't do the walk with thongs or slip-ons( jandels). The feet and brain are intimately associated. Even walking without weight wearing the former forces the feet to make unnecessary compensations that may lead to injury.

Everywhere i had to go in the house i did farmers walk with a 40lb, after one week, when i was benching the 35lb dumbell, for some reason it was much much easier and i even moved up to 40lbs.

@ROBLIFTS

I do them in laps (certain distance) for 10 minutes with 30 second breaks between sets.

My farmer carries include a km to barn on a 10° grade.... granted if I don't the goats and dogs don't get water... 40 litres in gas cans... party on. Do it sick... do it hung over...do it in the snow... no days off. Thats farm lol

Are you referring to the distance per set? Not really sure how to measure it, but it was around 30-40 seconds per set worth. The length of my house.

@@Frestryx you’re good man, I don’t mind 👍🏼 this was about a year ago, so I’m refreshing myself. Actually yes, it was around 10 minutes each day with short breaks in between each set. So when I first started I would take around 20 second breaks before going again and towards the end it was 10 seconds between each set. W a 10 min timer

Do farmers carries help with losing weight?

@ROBLIFTS

Ай бұрын

Farmers help with strength and muscle. Building muscle will help with losing weight, but in general diet is the key to weightloss

Is doing farmer walk on a treadmill also viable

Will you not shrink in height though? Surely you're compressing your spine.

@@KrisVic91 you’re working the muscles that improve your posture and ability to hold your spine up. So if done correctly, it shouldn’t. But one thing you can do daily is dead hangs (60 seconds or less) which decompress the spine. Technically your spine is compressed daily just through walking. So daily dead hangs for decompression are really good

Muscles need recovery time to grow. Lifting everyday is not good

OK THE VEST DID NOTHING BUT ADD WEIGHT TO YOUR BODY- YOU TALK ABOUT YOUR FOREARMS BEING FATIGUED- THEN YOU DID THEM WRONG!!! THE PURPOSE IS TO INVOLVE YOUR ENTIRE BODY AS IN SWIMMING IT IS A FULL BODY WORKOUT!! YOU REPEATED SAYING YOUR EVERYDAY FOR 30 DAYS YET THE FACIAL EXPRESSION SAY OPPOSITE!!

This video is useless. You missed the three most beneficial points of doing this protocol. My advice is to do a little more research, read an anatomy and physiology book and do the protocol properly

LOL, I guess you didn't do HEAVY farmer carries. Because if you did you would be too sore to them for a couple of days. And yes ,I do HEAVY farmer carries .
