How to do a Farmer’s Walk

December 15th, 2009 · 1 Comment

Coach: “Rachel, go pick up two 40 pound dumbbells and take a 200 meter walk.”

Me: “Um, No.”

Coach: “Rachel, go pick up two 40 pound dumbbells and go for a walk.”

Me: “Um, No.”

Coach: “Rachel, go pick up two 40 pound dumbbells and go for a walk.”

Me: “Ok, fine, I’ll go test it out.  Um, no. Not gonna happen.  Those barbells will tear my hands up. And, they are too heavy!”

Coach: “You can do it.”

Me: “No, I can’t.  I’ll take two 35 pound kettlebells and go for a walk instead.”

Like how flexible and willing I am?!  I very likely could have carried those weights, I just didn’t have a very open mind at the time.  It should have been so hard that I had to use all my core strength to hold myself up.  Anyhoo, next time, I will do it.

You can do this at home, too!
