trying new exercises
So what kind of different exercises have you guys /girls tried ??
I've recently added "the farmers walk" that I've seen so many times on The MetRx strongest man competitions. Not really moving impressive weights yet- I use 85lb dbells in each hand for 4-25yd. carries w/o straps. This is only my
2nd week with this movement. Goal = 150lb dbells(largest in gym) x 4-6 25yd carries or 1 continuous 100yd carry. When I get to my goal I'll have heavier apparatus' made & see how far I can go.
All comments welcomed & appreciated.YOU CAN SPEND YOUR TIME ANY WAY YOU WANT ,BUT YOU CAN SPEND IT ONLY ONCE.
MAKE IT WORTH IT!!!!!!

So many cries of inequality stem from one of group
of people doing little or nothing and then bitching
about another group that actually does something
to improve their lives.

Try pikes with the fitness ball. They rock the core. Also, side bends, clean and jerks, one armed over-head DB press.

I used to do 5MTR "reps" and just increase the weight. Usually did 3 sets of 4 reps = 20MTR sets.
