Are these good?

Farmers carry?
Yes

>>76495798
ok thank you

I think they also train the hands.

>>76495773 (OP)
I feel like a year or two ago farmers carries were all illustrated/taught with a single hand. Am I hallucinating memories? I was looking into them recently and it's all two hand now.

>>76495898
Two hand is default because its more weight on the lower body. One handed is more encouraging trunk strength by offsetting weight

>>76495773 (OP)
Well, you're not getting much range of motion. I think lunges would be superior.

>>76495773 (OP)
Do I need to do it with 3 other buddies as in the picture or can I do it solo?

Yes.

Fatigue to stimulus ratio is dog shit. Just do some form of split squat.

>Fatigue to stimulus ratio

Stimulus and fatigue are both huge.

Blue is where I feel the pain. Am I doing it wrong?

>>76495773 (OP)
Yes. Ive been thinking. I have a trap bar. Im gonna put a plate on each side and walk around my block. NEVER done it before. Yall reckon I'll make it around without stopping to rest?
People are gonna stare.

>>76495773 (OP)
complete waste of time, just do walking lunges

>>76496544
stare back

I miss her bros...

>>76496951
the burden we carry is heavier than any dumbbell...

>>76496951
*smooch* You'll be alright, Anon.

>>76496951
fuck off faggot

>>76496389
>The pain
Are you referring to the aching sensation you get in the target muscle during an exercise? Or do you mean the "oh shit that's not supposed to happen" pain?
Farmer carries done with two hands will be primarily a forearm/trap exercise. Your hands/forearms will need to grip the weights tight, while the traps will be working to keep your shoulders up.
I've been doing them with one DB recently. I do this so my core is more challenged.
As >>76495903 mentioned.

I've been lifting for a month now and I'm running into grip strength limitations holding 55 pound dumbbells in each hand for deadlifts.
Would these farmer's carries swapped out for deadlifts help boost my grip?

bruh

Get straps

Don't use dumbbells, use proper farmers handles. Aim to hit a total weight somewhere around your deadlift max for carries of 15-20m or so. If your deadlift is sub 300kg you'll probably be able to farmers a bit more than your max dl.
Grip focus obviously do longer carries and hold still at either end before setting them down.
Speed focus you can either do longer carries and focus on footwork or shorter to focus on pickup/transition speed.

You can use dbs if you really want, they just don't carry over to much. I won the event by over 20m when I had dumbbell farmers in a competition (70kg per hand) having only practiced the event twice before. To be fair though I was the only one who wasn't retarded and I hook gripped the narrow part at the front of the dumbbell handle.

>with a single hand.
its suitcase carry , farmer carry but only one hand
