PHYSICAL FRIDAY - Farmer’s Walk To Build Grip, Forearm, Shoulder and Neck Strength

This week is all about the importance of grip strength in fishing.  The farmer’s walk is an Old School exercise that has stood the test of time for a good reason…it works!   It is just like it sounds, you basically take something that is heavy and walk around with it. Just like everything else I do, this one does not require anything expensive or only available in a gym.  I fill up two 5 gallon buckets and take a few laps around my driveway. To make things harder, I also do this with heavy kettlebells. The Farmers Walk and Farmer’s Hold  are not flashy or new.  They are time tested and effective.  Throw this into your workout a couple of times a week and I promise that you will be able to hold that cast net longer, pull the anchor faster, carry more ice, lift heavier coolers all without hurting your back.  Plus, when we get back to shaking hands with each other you will crush people and make a great first impression.  Just don’t break anyone’s hands.  You will be COUNTRY STRONG!  Email me at [email protected] or tag me on Instagram @tom_rowland with any creative ways that you use the farmer’s carry.
