Nice to see the switch up. That looks like it was rough! Those are some heavy ass farmer carries. Were those dumbbells? I'd love to be able to hold that much and move. Good work bro

The farmer walks are with 6" pipes that have handles in the middle, and 2" pipes for olympic plates on each end. Basically like small logs with handles that stand up off them. 500 is about all I can get up off the ground, but once I have it off the ground I am gtg for the length of the room (35' up set them down, turn around pick them back up and 35' back).

Those sound pretty sweet man. I've never seen those.

You can block pull more, I'm sure of it.

I like the mixup of both though. Now stfu and train!

IDK if I can pull more. That was pretty rough, after all. Maybe 450 or 475 if I really pushed. . .
