Thats a nice looking toy, I really envy you guys that can lift at home.

Joe I have no choice man with my schedule and life if I didnt I would not lift at all. I have maybe spent $3000 over the last 2 years, but the equipment I have bought will never go away. I am a regimented type of guy so I have to set a schedule. I look forward to testing it out tomorrow, never did Yoke walks before. I dont even know where to start out at?

ANY BODY HAVE ADVISE?

A-HA! Found it.

Solid performances in here, man. Jealous of that Yoke setup, although I have no advice on where to start. I’d imagine starting in the street, and walking back and forth with it. haha

LWI!

^ Hahahaha I have a good 30 yard drive way. I was wondering about Weight.

garanteed to get some interesting looks from the neighbors, nice new toy there

Funny you should say that, since its around 5 in the morning when I am getting at it. I see guys walkind around the neighborhood and normally they stop and stare when i am doing my farmers walks or prowler pushes.

I know man, just messing with ya. I’d probably throw two 45’s on each side to start and see how it feels.

OVER 9000

or youre officially a bitch.

jk “texan”

Serious note, I have no doubt you could start with at least two plates per side. Curious, approx how heavy is the yoke?

If you have been doing farmer’s Walks, you should have an idea of what kind of weight, maybe start with the same, and work up from there, since grip won’t be an issue.

On a side note, once it warms up some, and i finish cleaning out my garage and get it set back up correctly, I have been thinking about building a sled myself to drag around the neighborhood and annoy everyone with the sound of it, heh. I won’t be doing it at 5 am though, I couldn’t be that rude.

I push it on the grass, no choice. I live in a neighborhood with Drs, Lawyers and NASA engineers. I do not want the cops to show up.

Ass, kid who made it says he weighed it at 70 pounds.

So you both Ink included in this would start with say under 300 pounds? Let me rephrase that, not start out, but target. I currently am doing farmers with 120 pounds in each hand, I could go a little heavier but would have to stop more. I am working on distance vs weight ratios.

I dont video this, its total nutt up what would make you feel like the southern Billy badass?


Morning of fun Wed

Pictures for effect. :slight_smile:

KB suitcase walks each hand

50 X 4 X 80 yards

Yoke Walk

250 X 4 X 50 yards

Farmers Walks

120 X 4 X 80 yards

Wow this was fun and tiring. Sweating like a stuck hog, it was 70 degrees and 90% humidity this morning.

Yoke walks with tennis shoes a must, also will take time to get cordination down. Breathing and walking is a unique issue and preventing swinging. Also these were all raw, no belt etc. Even though I did put my wrist wraps on really just to prevent the sweat from getting on my hands.

Sweet man, so did you feel like 2pps was “enough” to start with?

Hehe, I wonder what the ‘normal’ neighbors think when they see that stuff sitting out on the driveway.

Yep started with the 2 per side. I didnt go up, since I was working it with other excercises.

Walking and breathing while doing it takes some getting used to. Also preventing it from swinging is hard but takes some coordination.

It works for sure. I will do this every Wed for the next month then bump up weight.
