75% split, does that mean 37.5% in each hand?Nice talk, thanks. I think carries are gold, and have been meaning to work them even more. Interesting quip at the end, 75% bodyweight split in each hand, for a minute and a half. Unfortunately I dont have the right weights to test it without making a sandbag or something. But I'm up to a minute with 87% BW so I think I'd be close.
I've just been doing farmer style, but I've been meaning to get around to Cook's overhead to rack, to suitcase style. I think this motivated to try it at least once this coming week.
The way @Jeffro writes it I understand it as 75% in each hand. I haven't watched the video yet, but if it's just 37.5% in each hand for 1.5min once, it's a total joke. That's why I think 75% per hand is correct.75% split, does that mean 37.5% in each hand?
Has anybody else noticed a massive difference in carrying kettlebell's versus dumbbells? I can carry two 70 lb KB's in each hand much easier than I can two DB's of the same weight. The weight under the hand in KB carries seem to help.
@StanStan - I have incorporated them right after S&S. Mostly Farmer or Suitcase Carry
I have also experimented with what Gray Cook has discussed and what Dan John calls the "Cook Drill" - 6 position, OH to rack to suitcase and then changing to the easier position then changing hands for a total of 12-15 minutes - and it is challenging! I have heard in the past Gray Cook recommend using a bell for this that you can bottom's up press with both hands, which for me is a 16kg bell.
Yes, and I think the idea is to walk, not just stand there.75% split, does that mean 37.5% in each hand?
Yup, just really awkward.@wespom9 DBs try to roll out of your hands, KBs don't.
Yes, and I think the idea is to walk, not just stand there.
