“I’ve often said that I wish people could real “I’ve often said that I wish people could realize all their dreams—wealth and fame—so that they could see that it’s not where you’re going to find your sense of completion.” — Jim Carrey, Maharishi University commencement speech, May 2014. So—now what? Help others. It is our nature.

It’s no coincidence that carrying heavy loads is It’s no coincidence that carrying heavy loads is one of the key events in modern strongman competitions—and it stands at the very roots of strength training and so-called progressive overload. The legend of Milo of Croton says that as a form of strength training, he started by carrying a small calf on his shoulders. The next day, he did the same. And the next day… and the next. The calf grew heavier, Milo grew stronger. After four years of carrying the calf back and forth, Milo could easily lift and carry a heavy bull on his shoulders. Modern science tells us that, unfortunately, it doesn’t quite work that way, but the message is clear: adding more weight is essential for getting stronger, and—carrying heavy loads is one of the best exercises out there. “[W]hen we train our lifts more than our carries, when we train our patterns more than our postures, we forget this vital fact: postural stabilizer endurance should far surpass the prime mover endurance. The ability to maintain integrity under load is more important than the ability to lift load, and it is fundamental for proper movement of load. Carries train the brakes—your control, whereas lifts train your engine—your power.” — Fundamental Capacity Screen — Diagnostic - Gray Cook, FCS @functionalmvmt - 3/4 of the weight distributed between both hands, 1.5 minutes. — Training - Dan John @coachdanjohn - Recommended length for regular training: 20-40 meters. - Standard: Half your body weight in each hand, 100 meters. - Game Changer: Your body weight in each hand. „The loaded carry does more to expand athletic qualities than any other single thing I’ve attempted in my career as a coach and athlete.“ –Dan John #kettlebell #farmercarry #farmercarries #bestrong #strongfirst #bestrongfirst
Old-school kettlebell snatch, Imperial-style Thi Old-school kettlebell snatch, Imperial-style This is one of the old-school kettlebell snatch variations from my Imperial Program Minimum—a snatch-and-bent-press program you can do with a kettlebell, dumbbell, or barbell. Different tools call for slightly different variations of the lifts. Kettlebell snatch variations I teach: • Swing-to-split snatch • Split snatch • Dead split snatch These were among the most popular kettlebell snatch variations of the old-time strongmen—Eugene Sandow, Arthur Saxon, Władysław Pytlasiński, Hermann Görner, and others: low-rep, HEAVY.
