Huge Personal Best In Farmers Walk

Recommended Posts

so i trained squats yesterday in the gym. that session lasted about 3 hours, then went to my training partners house for some superyoke and farmer walk training. i wasnt looking forward to events, i didnt really eat enough yesterday, but i knew it needed to be done. did 5 working sets of yoke, then decided to see if i could beat my previous best farmers walk of 410 lbs per hand. i started at 300 then 340,370,410 was going to to 430, and said hell with it and went right to 450, managed a 24 foot walk.

here's the vid

thanks guys.

my pick is always what holds me back most in farmers, never my hands. my legs will buckle long before my hands open. these farmers obviously have a high pick, but weight is weight. i honestly think i would be good for 500 lbs, IF i could pick it, how far i'd walk is a totally differat story, the 450 walk was ugly enough. another fear is ive seperated both coller bones in seperate bench injurys. after heavy hold, farmers and deads they usually ache a few days.

lol sorry bro :P

but you gotta think too that grip has always been my biggest strength. first time i ever touched farmers walks was at a strongman demo when i was 14. they were 220 lbs i walked them 30 feet. i have quite large hands and it looks like i have no tendons on my forearms. i actually only started specifically working grip a couple months ago
