I could just imagine the looks I would get in the gym if I gave them a go.

 

[t3c]

yes, next week i think i will attach a sled to me while doing overhead walks

i have this obsession with latching a sled to me while carrying heavy shit

I could just imagine the looks I would get in the gym if I gave them a go.

the looks you get?

i was walking down my block before with a bar over my head and almost got hit by a car lololol

exodus yea this is just walking with a bar over your head...my sholders actually give out before my core...but my obliques are pretty sore right now

 

[kingc_79]

i used 95lbs on the thick bar...didn't feel too bad

 

[Exodus]

have you ever done overhead squats t3c??? i wonder what weight to use in comparison. i can overhead squat 135 for 4 x 10, and 155 for 3 x 10 are my 2 best.

I'm glad I could be of service t3c...anytime you want to torture yourself just let me know....goener walks should be next...lol

X The point of these is to really strengthen the shoulder girdle and stabilizers...the movement of your lower body is compensated by your shoulders to keep the weight where it is, it is a little bit harder than an overhead squat....you might want to try like 115 to start and if you can go about fifty yards easy go up...when this gets boring do them on your tip toes....when this gets old do overhead walking lunges

 

[Exodus]

well im trying both these and goener walks on saturday, ill try and post some picks of the fun.

i have done overhead lunges, but not walking, that should be a very interesting twist.
