Years ago you had a video where you asked "If you could only do one workout what would that be?"
Many of the guys at your gym answered "farmer's carry" and since then I have included them in my program.
Thank you for the years of great content.
Cool tips!! Your older training videos are the reason why I love farmer walks!!
One of those will be coming out later this week or early next week
Such a perfect timing, I just got my hands on a pair of farmer’s walks and they have already reinvigorated my drive for strength training! Thanks for the video 👊
They are an absolute game changer brother! All of your lifts will start to go up
Brian got me into farmer’s walks after watching an old video about them. They are brilliant! I’ve seen big strength gains after starting to program them.
@@DJGenericname oh yeah for sure! Nice to hear another anecdote of getting big carryover effects from farmers walks. I remember watching some of Brian’s older videos too a couple years back. But reached a limit carrying the heaviest kettlebells at my previous gym
I’m super pumped to progressively overload towards bodyweight in each hand, as my first milestone 💪 I feel like it will address some weaknesses in my core from just doing barbell work
@@MattiasWalc I’m currently working towards body weight in each hand as well. My grip strength has shot right up since I started and I can feel traps and biceps growing too. Another great move I got from Brian is weighted front carries, a body weight front carry gets my whole back and biceps pumped afterwards. Best of luck with your progress Mattias!
@@DJGenericname awesome stuff man, yea I’ma incorporate more and more strongman movements like the front carry too. good luck to you too! 👊
That last one i feel is the most helpful. I be wanting to give up the first five feet but I know I can always push through it
Great video- have to say I'm loving that stone wall, too
Thank you my friend, I really appreciate that
Tysm for these tips! I do farmers walks to help me with my deadlifts. The way my PT showed me was to grab them and position like I'm doing a deadlift. I learned the over grip from you, this will be very helpful when I do them. The last tip, I didn't notice I was doing that already. 💝💝💪🏽💪🏽
I hope they help and I have a lot of other tips for them on the other videos in the description
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial awesome, I will check them out. Ty!!!
the pups sure have gotten big!
I use tip number 2 - overgripping the bar - pretty much with every movement that it can be applied to, be is deadlifts, bench, or even grabbing dumbbells.
Brian can you do a video on how to program loaded carries? Regardless if hypertrophy or workload focused. Id like to have a loaded carry oriented day where i make farmer walks my Tier 1 exercise.
Liked before I watched. 👍💪
Thank you so much brother, I appreciate you

Love the video as always! I am just now starting my garage gym. Do you have any suggestions on farmer carry handles?
Honestly, the easiest way is to find someone who can weld and then buy The steel. You can make a set of handles for like 40 bucks
Just had a buddy make a pair for me a few months ago. It helps with all of your lifts, and is good for cardio. I do these on days when I front carry, it really gets the heart pumping. Thanks for the video!!!
Use them like crazy my friend! They are a game changer
good timing lol great onfo
I hope it helps my friend!
Amazing as always. Don't have the same equipment you have, but are similar benefits achievable doing farmers with kettlebells or a trap bar?
Yes absolutely, you would be better off with Actual farmers handle implements, but you can make a lot of progress with A trap bar or kettle bells
This easily became one of my favorite lifts a while ago thx to strongman videos.
It is a game changer!
things you can say to your dog but not your wife Neversate edition :” I love you but go somewhere else for a little bit.”
Do you do a slight shrug and hold while carrying? I’ve heard that can help to not dangerously overload the shoulders
question:
I remember watching earlier videos on farmers walks from you. I have access to a trap bar and about 20 meters of grass at my gym. I don't quite remember what your recommendations for load was but I remember it was a bit daunting for someone of my ability (lower intermediate lifter, bodyweight in each hand would barely exceed my max deadlift currently). Even doing walks with my bodyweight as my total load would be challenging perhaps especially for grip.
the farmers walks fell out of my program fairly fast since I wasn't sure about how to measure progress or improve with them but I can definitely see the benefit they could bring. What kind of progression/benchmarks would you recommend for someone who wants to work them into my routine but don't feel confident enough yet to go balls to the walls with them?
If you only have trap bar, start by incorporating trap bar deadlifts into your program. Once you get comfortable with the pick, you can start taking steps. You don't have to go balls to the wall with crazy weight, you can do it with distance too. Put 135 on and walk the 20, if it's too easy, turn around and do it again (without dropping if you can). If that's too easy, add a little bit more. Do that til you find a weight that's challenging but not crazy max effort every time
are there any benefits to lower weight higher distance?
Does over gripping and making that hand skin cushion cause blisters? Or what would you recommend to prevent them?
My back is really screwed up, so now I just do Farmer’s holds with KBs. I get the awesome trap stretch without any spinal rotation. I started doing them with Versa Grips and I can actually challenge my traps, not just have my forearms give out.
That's awesome!!! I actually use straps to overload my traps when my grip gives out.
This sounds horrible, I have broken my back twice so I can’t even imagine what you must have done to yours that you’re not able to do a farmers walk
I couldn't gain size. I started drinking milk and doing farmers walks and carryall of all kinds for months and months. Give it a try if your skinny.
I'm a bit late to the party but have to say these are good tips. What's your opinion on doing Farmer's walks on your toes to increase emphasis on the calves? At the moment I'm doing half bodyweight in each hand, hoping to increase this a lot in the coming year!
Your grip will wear before ur calves do so it’s not worth it
Just hold a barbell and do barbell calf raises
Wooooo
Thanks Joseph!
Hey Brian should I use straps with super heavy farmers so I could focus on moving fast or is it better to work with lighter weight to get footwork better
Definitely not. Half of the point of the exercise is to work your grip
started doing heavy farmers walks rowing strength increased over 9000
Haha that will do it
Was bummed when I found out tshirts would no longer be sold. Is there plans for more in the future? Not sure what I’ll wear without Neversate shirts.
There might be, I’m just not sure who I would go with yet
Praise the LORD for creating cool dogs.
Definitely indeed
Hi Brian, I have been doing Farmer's carries for about 5 months. I am very much a beginner, and my PR on the carries got to 150kg at a bodyweight of 69kg.
Last week, I used the single handed implements that you showed in this video for the first time. I loaded up gradually to 55kg in each hand on my third set. During the lift-off (before I started to walk), I felt a pop around my mid back on my left side. I checked with my physio and he said I had pulled my serratus and lats.
I feel that the cause was that the single handed implements tend to wobble around in all directions, and I didn't stabilize the weight on one side. I also felt my breathing-and-bracing might have needed work. Do you have any other suggestions for this specific injury as to what might have happened? Any corrections you could suggest?
Thanks a lot for your help!!
Quick edit: I had been using a trapbar for doing the carries until last week.
Would you use a belt or straps? If so, when?
Not straps. That defeats the purpose unless you are doing them for a specific reason. And put on a belt when you would normally put one on for a deadlift. If the combined weight is heavy enough, then throw it on
Where will t shirts be sold?
We haven’t decided yet
If I were the sexiest man alive, I would say that I dont always do loaded carries, but when I do, I do farmers carries… or zerchers, or sandbag, or yoke. 🤣
Haha
My biggest issue with farmers walks is that I don’t have access to implements. I have just been using 90lbs kettlebells. Unfortunately they’re the heaviest kettlebells the gym offers, so if I wanna increase weight, I’ll have to basically do a farmers walk just to get the dumbbells from their rack on the other side of the gym to the starting position on the turf lol. Any good workaround for this?
You can make travel farmers handles to use or if you have access to a trap bar, that will work as well
Unrelated question, are your dogs Rhodesian ridgebacks?
Indeed they are
Crazy how strong animals can be huh? Despite us trying our best to be so strong 😂
Thanks brother for these tips, being visually impaired adds another layer of difficulty but these tips help
I suppose it wouldn’t, I’m really sorry you’re going through that brother
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial
Oh no no, the tips did help my friend. I very much appreciate it
I do farmer walks with 15s in each hand and walk for miles and switch through different variations
I love light, long farmers box. But definitely train them heavy as well if you want to read the benefits on the big 4 lifts
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial definitely when I get access to a gym or purchase a heavier set up because right now 6 gallon water jugs (45lbs) is the heaviest I got
I love farmer's walk.
Big issue that I have is massive sweatage of my palms.
No matter how I chalk them, everytime it ends in swampy mess :|
You and I both, I walk around like a surgeon after washing his hands before my set so that I can keep sweat off of my palms. I’m thinking about trying some sweat bands on my forearms
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial I was also thinking about them. Hopefully it will help at least a little.
Thanks for your work (especially RPM full body plan in last weeks ;) )!
what about feet placing while walking?
I cover that in the more in-depth videos in the description
I found out both of my shoulders are injured have 6 weeks of physical therapy and shots if they don't work then I have to get surgery...I hate to stop training but it's gotten impossible for me to lift anything with my right arm
I hope that the therapy works brother! Heal up soon
we wanna videos of a great way to finish your squat day and deadlift day ?
They are coming my friend
No more tees Brian ?
Not from that company anymore
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial Good. They gave me some crap customer service recently.
Looking forward to the next chapter Brian.
Way #1 to improve farmers: Do more farmers walks.
I don’t know, with your central nervous system there is definitely a point of diminishing returns with the farmers walk
Does that die. Empty shirt have any meaning behind it, or is it just a random generic shirt ?
Of course it does, I would never sell a random generic shirt. Die empty means that when you leave this mortal coil, weather be today or 100 years from now, he lived each day to the fullest and there’s nothing else left. Hence dying empty
300 bag into a 300 per hand farmers in an upcoming comp. Not looking forward to that one
No, that does not sound like much fun at all
tip 2 calluses fuck up ,y farmers walks... its painful
You have to take care of your hands dude. I have an entire video about hand care that will fix this problem for you
Weak little fingers 😩
I wish it weren’t true!
