That's Matt Wenning for those that don't know, strange seeing him be the "demo guy" as his credentials in strength and coaching are far superior than Aaron's (SU is awesome too though).
Thought it was just happening in my gym. I always think "what lovers want to lift weight, but are too lazy to take the plates off and rack?" It's like what if someone elderly wants to use the equipment afterwards? Just plain stupid and lazy. I think maybe I will start cleaning up after them to get the core workout in.
I learnes this lesson on accident years ago. My dumb friend got blackout drunk at a bar and got tossed out, i had to hold him up shoulder to shoulder thru the many winding streets to get back to our car (city parking) The next morning my core was stupid sore
I think it's exactly the opposite lol. Form is everything when it comes to any core exercise. In this one you have to stay straight up and down. It's nothing but form
For holds, it's really just keep your hand(s) closed and your chin up, and maybe walk over there. And they don't train just the core, your whole body needs to maintain tonus to not tear from its sockets. Every muscle group gets hit, forearms and traps the most. Obliques get worked with asymmetric ones. Love the hold & carry.
@@markmoore618 having good form is a given, this one however seemed much easier to get into rather than needing to record myself for feedback, staying upright is straightforward but tough on your core which is a good thing. Its just the ones I've tried before are frustratingly annoying when you don't feel your core engaged but another body part is doing the work
@@markmoore618 think what he means is not needing to try adjust yourself constantly to get the right muscle to engage. It was frustrating when I did side planks/planks and the muscles I would feel are the shoulders even after taking notes/recordings. This, you just need to stand straight up and can even do it in front of a mirror for slight adjustments while still getting your core engaged
Matt is a beast. I had the opportunity to learn some top notch fitness and health stuff from the man when I was in the Army. Not only does he KNOW his stuff, but he is a living embodiment of practicing it.
i just to work in demolition and one time we had to assess to have any equipment to the are we were working so we had it to carry buckets with cement everyone was like Damm good exercise next day a lot people didn't go to work musty the ones the carry buckets all day don't do this it hurts your spine not your core lot people got their spine hurt
God loves you that he gave his son Jesus Christ to die for your sins so you have a chance for eternal life. Repent and confess your sins to Jesus Christ. He loves you
@@totalphantasm it is actually a good movement exercise , but I just walk with a weight and call it a farmer carry. but I agree too many buzzwords to rehash a new "game changer" Why add the elastic? No mention of it..?! What benefit does it have over just holding the weight in the hand?
@@Matthew-xy1hj bro wdym MEAN farmers carry this is CLEARLY an iso lateral gyrating ambulation which cultivates free energy from the non Euclidean forces in the transverse human axis to induce free form hypertrophy.
I added carrying into my workout split and had a great time. It was a lot different than other exercises I do and it really helped round out the stability and strength in my core, back, and shoulders
Question: Why is a band required to hold a kettlebell when it has a handle of its own? Is there something about the weight's center of gravity being closer to the ground that increases the effectiveness?
The band makes the movement unstable, when you exert force up and down with your legs the band gets loaded with elastic energy and makes it shift with more force than what the weight of the kettlebell would cause on its own. The same applies to hanging band attached weights to your barbell.
If you're referring to work, be thankful you don't have to farm your own food or starve, or hunt and sell skins and be screwed if the season didn't go your way. Be thankful you don't gotta dig outhouse pits, etc. Many things in the modern day are worse than before, but they're mostly if not totally inner things. Technology and luxury advancements are things we should be thankful for.
What is your band-to-weight ratio for stability. Also, I am a Kinesiology & Exercise Science Major at UH Manoa in Hawaii and a CPT as well. I love your videos and breaking down the biomechanics and kinesthetics of the movements you show for rehabilitation, corrective exercise, and muscle engagement. You provide excellent content and I make sure my clients see the videos that apply to them🙌🏽💪🏽😁 Thank you 🙏
What's the band for? Why not just hold the kettle or dumbbell with your hand? Does it have something to do with the weight height and how it affects your balance?
@@imaouimaand bc momentum adds another instability that your muscles have to counteract else it starts resonating and will break your knee, so to curb the vibration your abs will be constantly contracting and relaxing to absorb the vibration It's like plancking whilst balancing on a ball, to combat instability you have to stabilize your core muscles, it's what they do You can do it without bands, but they make it more effective
Каждый день хожу с тяжёлым пакетом из пятерки лол, считай та же нагрузка ещё и время под нагрузкой выше + дополнительная нагрузка на кор из-за неровностей рельефа😂
Saw Matt Wenning make a comment the other day saying "Soviet athletes had no stress. It was all athletics focused". I thought surely he misspoke because it would be next to impossible for someone not to know the stresses they were under and how athletes tried to defect so I asked him. Nope. He doubled down. Literally called me crazy for suggesting such a thing. Had to discount all of his opinions from that point forward as thats just head in the sand level misinformed.
I think the chaotic part comes from the rubber band lol but farmers carry is both hands at the same time which hits differently BC you don't have to balance out the weight with your core. Suitcase Carry is the generally agreed upon term for a unilateral farmers carry.
@@jackandrews7821 Negative, farmers carry is walking with a weight in one hand only. It’s in the name; when have you ever seen a farmer carry anything with both hands but off to one side? KB and cross fit is about functional strength and that is why a lot of the exercises are based on farmer / construction worker type activities.
Nope , even a quick google will tell you otherwise, farmers often carry things in each hand /arm . Like sheep or fert bags . Of course there's exceptions to every rule , it might be only one sheep lol.
@@zulubravo9434 Just google the exercise dude. farmers carry is a weight in each hand. Suitcase is weight in one hand. It's just the name of the exercise, it doesn't have some deep historical context with farmers or some shit.
@@jackandrews7821 Suitcase cary (AKA one hand Farmers carry) actually does have a historical context in its name. A lot of if not most exercise names are based in a historical context (Bear crawl, Pull up, Chin up, push up, seated row, hammer curl, squat). Jesus, this is a case of you telling me that you have no idea what you are talking about without telling me you have no idea what you are talking about."
Or just do traditional ab exercises, crunches, leg raises, and reduce your body fat. Not to mention that your core is engaged to perform most other exercises and movements. But gimic ab exercises are popular among people who think they can spot reduce. Everybody's abs look good when they have a low percentage of body. If you can't see your abs already the only reason to train them is to increase your overall muscle to increase your metabolism.
I agree for healthy people who are actively barbell or kettlebell training with appropriate programming, most of the core training you'd ever need is happening already. I'm slowly building back my stability from a low back injury, and do a ton of offset carries and they're helping me alot to get back to that structural integrity again, maybe that's where this kind of movement can shine
@@marcquenneville7997 Sure rehabbing from an injury where you can't do traditional core exercises. I just think if you're training your abs and obliques the muscles are getting more stimulation through contractions than they are from a stabilizing role in off balance exercise.
@@AK12255 Even in terms of balance most of balance is represented in core strength. A contraction of the muscle is more stimulating to stabilizing muscles used for balance than is standing on one leg. This is gimmick shit, most commonly employed by people who don't have the drive to put in the time and work to do real exercises that actually improve athletic performance.
@@orionsimerl6539 Well not just the core but the hips, knees, and ankles all help balance the body so this exercise will still work somewhat for balance
Great exercise! But if you just stand still on one leg the weight is not moving so no need for the rubber band? It only gets chaotic when you start walking.
I didn’t have a squat rack in my previous apartment gym. So I used to load the barbell on the bench, so like a cheat good morning to lift it, get up, and walk a few yards to a space where I could back squat. And just walking with heavy weights while being conscious of your core helps build that strength.
Very interesting. I’d love to work on my core stability for health reasons How would one progressively overload this? Like 30 marches with a certain weight and go up in either marches/weight every workout?
