Suitcase Carry
in Gait
Ok, so the lady in the picture clearly isn't working very hard. But when she's 90, she will appreciate all the strength that suitcase carries develop in your core, shoulders, and grip. Basically, I treat suitcase carries like asymmetrical farmer walks. They have all the benefits of the farmer walk with the added bonus of requiring you to keep your torso upright while the weight pulls you over.
Coach Stevo's Top Tips
- Engage your core.
- Squeeze your shoulder blades together.
- Engage your lat.
- You can go further than you think you can.
