I just purchased the program! I’ll be in my new home next month and I’ll finally have the space to perform farmers carries; so great timing. Your programs (the first of which I bought years ago) have transformed my approach to working out and life. Thank you. Thank you for the strength, and thank you for helping me to remove laziness from my day to day routine.
Comments like this mean the world to me Danny! I truly thank you so much for the support but even more for the kind words. Things like this make my day
@@ClassicPhysique27 I have farmer carry implements, I believe they’re from Vulcan Strength but I’m not positive. A couple years ago, when I bought my first program, I had the ability to do farmer carries so for the most part I did them. At the time my place had a connected garage, etc., but even then I hated it because people in the surrounding town homes could see me, and despite my size, I’m a modest guy. Now I have my own home, it’s showtime!
Bro how much sets for the carrying exercises Is it same as the giant set (5 sets for heavy in week 1 ) Or 1 set for each minute for 10 minutes (10 sets)
Man, a new program video! Never clicked on a video so fast. Funny cause about a month ago I was trying to figure out how to integrate more Carry’s into my training! Gonna buy it as soon as I finish this video!
Haha I can’t tell you how much I appreciate that my friend! This will definitely help you understand a lot of the principles and there is a lot of theory written at the beginning so you should walk away with some really good ideas. I can’t thank you enough for the support and all that you do to help the channel!
Just bought the program; really looking forward to it. Expecting it to be the most brutal Alsruhe program yet as I know how draining carries can be on their own, much more so paired with squats, deadlifts, etc every time out. Some great/funny lines as I read through… my favorite so far highlighting the importance of sprints… “complete xx 200m sprints in 10 minutes. If no space to run, do a 7 minute wall sit and use that time to think about a good place to run.” No thanks on a 7 minute wall sit, I’ll find some place to run lol.
Was going to buy the program either way, but the Sumo-baby-lifter movement (3:50ish in) sold me even more. Never stop being you man...you're beacon of awesomeness!
Just purchased the program! In retrospect looking back at my training over the last couple of years, it has been consistently inconsistent, and neglected foundational aspects like grip strength that really hampered my progress with the main lifts. Feel like this will help me build the foundation most lifters neglect when starting off! Thanks for the awesome content Brian, appreciate it!
Thanks for this Brian. I am from Brazil and unfortunately, USD25 is out of my reach. You doing those free programs means a lot to me, I´ve been doing your programs exclusively for some time now. Hopefully one day I will be able to buy one program from you to support you more directly.
Just email me brother, I hate that you’re in that situation and I am happy to give you one. Plus every once in a while people will email me and “sponsor” A program for someone who can’t afford it. We take care of each other man,
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial likewise to what Eric Gerber said (below)... if you need a sponsor for someone else let me know! I'd be happy to help out your followers - and support you as well!!
I asked if any programs implemented farmers carries a lot not to long ago, as a mma athlete I'm so happy to see brian create such an amazing program thanks brian
You’ll be shocks and how much easier things in your world start becoming when you try to physically move them. Thank you so much for the support my friend!
Love your stuff Brian!! Your info has helped me a lot. Strong work giving credit to delivery personnel. Please don’t forget those warehouse workers. Thank you for all you do!
Just purchased the program. I can't say thank you enough for all of the quality programming, instruction and REAL advise that you provide the strength community!!! Thank you for your expertise and guidance.
I cannot say thank you enough Donald, people like you are the reason why the channel stays alive so I cannot say thank you enough and I truly hope the program goes amazing for you!
Brian is an incredible teacher and communicator, his excitement for people trying this program is infectious! Unique program that looks like a ton of fun to run!
I am thankful for Brian’s content. I’ve been watching him for several years now. Use many of his cues to lift and may have copied him a time or two deadlifting lol. I have finally been in a position to run one of his programs almost true with equipment and such. Day one was awesome.
Love it Brian as always! I currently train full body 3x per week and finish each day with a circuit built around either sandbag carries, prowler pushes or farmers walks as conditioning. I can testify that these awkward locomotion exercises improve absolutely EVERYTHING. In this program, are you building up to a single carry of the stated distance, doing multiple carries on the clock, or putting the carry in your giant set format? Interested how you progress that over time, but guess I'll have to spend the dollar to find out!
I'm an Olympic hopeful for 2024 and I want you to know this is the first program i e ever bought online in my 16 year career. Your super dope for doing this especially this much work and quality for 25 fuckin bucks. I'm going to get after this with my lil bro whoes a fireman and we are stoked!!!
Just bought the program Brian! Will start it in a few weeks probably after I finish up what I'm working through now. Also the new site looks good. Congrats on the upgrade
Thank you so much Daniel, all of it has been a lot of work on me since those things aren’t skills that come naturally to me but it has been really fun learning all of this! And I can’t say thank you enough for all of the support brother!
Thank you Brian! This thing looks great! I’m going to finish my current run on the minimalist program first but I’m excited to get this going soon. I also need some time to procure the additional implements for the carries… looking at some downed trees out in one of the cow pastures 🤔
Thank you Brian! For this and everything you do! Bought the program and starting next week. Need to get some sandbags. I donated some to my gym but need to get some heavier ones- I doubt my gym will mind.
The structure is similar to the program you built with Allen Thrall, so let me say it's easy AF to follow and if it's anything like that one, the strength gains will be incredible! Thank you for the walk through and I'll be using this in the near future (paid for, of course)
Brian this program is so well made, congratulations. I'm begining week 8 day 1 this Sunday, and this program has done so much for me already in 7 weeks. My grip is strong, I'm more confident loading sandbags, I hit a PR for 315 each hand on farmers and I'm just about halfway done with the program. Best of all, my conditioning has improved a ton. Took about 7 weeks to really feel like I am performance with decent condition and not feel gassed right away. Love this program!
I love this program, I bought it a while back. Thank you for creating this. If I wanted to add drags into this program which day should I do it on and how do you think it would be best to add it? I was thinking of replacing one of the carries or load with the drag.
Hey Nigel, thank you for letting me know, brother! I just checked it out and apparently square space (the site host ) is having issues like this across the board. They are working on it so hopefully it will be fixed very soon. I’m sorry that you are dealing with this brother.
Just bought the program! Super excited to use it to help me train for rugby next semester. 1 question though: I only have access to a gym on school campus with no sandbags. I plan on making them myself, but I saw sometimes they are used in the middle of a giant set. My initial plan was to do the sandbag phase of each workout in a park right next to my gym and then go finish the rest inside but after seeing that I would have to use the sandbags and a barbell in the same giant set (ex. 3 sandbag over shoulder to 2 front squats), I am now unsure because that would entail bringing a 250lb sandbag into a gym and hauling it around which I do not think is allowed. Would you recommend altering the program a bit so all the sandbag training is done outside the gym, or should I use something else in place of the sandbag, or is there another solution you would have in mind? Thanks! Btw is there somewhere we can donate to?
Gday Brian, thank you again for all the information. I just picked up the program and going through it now. I was just wondering what a step waiters walk with a barbell was? I’m gonna assume an overhead press while walking?
To give you an idea, that’s about how much one large fast food meal would cost someone. That’s why I’m not dropping the price. I figure 18 weeks worth of programming is definitely worth the price of a burrito and a drink.
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial A man can only ask. Here in Thailand, the price of a fast food meal would feed my family of 5 for an entire week. May Buddha give you a thousand blessings sir 🙏
Hey I bought the program and I’m loving it! Quick question. Bottom of page 26 it’s says “at the top of every min perform” with no duration mentioned. Should I assume you meant 10 mins?
Thank you Brian! Really excited for this! I have just one question. Are we just working up to a single carry ( one heavy carry for 50 ft)? Or are we performing that carry for a certain number of rounds or for time? Sorry about the confusion! Love the content!
You could work up to a single carry on certain days if you wanted to, but for the most part I would do a couple warm-up runs to get to a good working weight and then stick with it and get on a clock
Just see how you go, if your actually weight it obese your not really going to cope with the extra load, it will just murder recovery. Especially in a deficit just use 245 and if it’s super easy for the first few meso’s up it a bit.
Instant regret of this purchase. Listen, I am sure this program is awesome. It will work for some people, but not for me. I am not saying the program is bad, there not such thing as a bad program, but after reading it became evident very quickly that it is not the right fit for me from a logistic stand point. Simply put, they are way to many exercises, which realistically, I would not be able to accomplish in my local gym at 5PM in the afternoon. Too many people too little space and I am not talking about the carrying space either (Box Jumping followed by squatting). Additionally, while I am not new to lifting, I am not a pro either. And they are several exercises or at least the names of these exercises that I am not familiar with much less know how to complete with the correct form. It would be nice if there were more instructions about listed exercises. If, however, you are a seasoned Vet with several years of lifting with access to a hard core gym than this program would be the right fit for you. If however you are just a JAG (Just a Guy or Gal) with access to your local "......"Fitness, then this program MAY not be the right fit for you right now. Having said this, I have purchased it and will save it on the good ole thump drive until the time it is right for me.
Dude, I am happy to refund you or give you a different program but why didn’t you watch the video about this where it showed you sample workouts of the days you would be doing?
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial Thank you for responding. And while I appreciate the offer, I purchased the program and I will own it and will make use of it later. I have watched a great many of your videos and I like them all. You do great work! An more likely than not I have already seen the video you are referring too. I simply need to re watch it. But that was my secondary concern. My primary regret is that with my gym, life routine and time makes this program not right for me right now. I usually work out for an hour. They are many days, I can give it 75 mins or even 90 mins but in my gym it will take 90 + on daily basis if I undertake this program at 5PM in the afternoon. And perhaps that is my biggest regret, I simply cannot realistically start the program due to my gym and logistics. Perhaps I will have to find a new gym and that will solve everything. Kind Regards,
That’s just to get in the game my friend, you want to believe how strong some people are at the farmers walk but it literally will make every other aspect of your training better
Got this over the weekend, great work Brian. Must admin, its been humbling - I was only carrying 55kg in each hand on Day 1 at a bw of 94kg. And the Presses into waiters walks on Day 2 I had to drop the weight considerably. I guess I'll have to cut the weight as long as I get the distance\sets in on the carries?
i'm surprised it's only 25 dollars. That's a steal of a deal, my dude. Just for fun. What would you say you did if you did farmers walk with the Dinnie stones like on History Channel's The Strongest Man where Brian Shaw crushed it?
Have been looking forward to this since you first mentioned this. Have totally gotten into sandbag training based on your RPM program and your videos. This looks to be AWESOME!!!
I am so happy to get it out to you Josh! Your support means so much and I truly think this is going to be life-changing for a lot of people, you included. Thanks again brother!
I was finally able to pick up your edc amazing workout plan I suck to it pretty tightly with the exception of incorporating various farmers walks Zercher carries and along with the prescribed carries and strength has gone through the roof. Truly amazing work my friend
What’s happening Brian? Love you’re content, and I’m glad you are doing way better health wise. I have a quick question about sandbags. I’m planning on buying some, but the ones that Cerberus had are the one that you tie at the top. Would these be good for the carry project? Only reason I ask is because I’m afraid they would burst open since they are not like the zippered ones with the Velcro, and since you gotta throw them over your shoulder. Any help is always greatly appreciated. Take care.
Hi Brian, sorry to bother you. Quick question. Is there an app that you use to track your workouts or do you just log them with pen and paper? I find it hard to find something to log the sandbag workouts. I purchased your neverstate 60 sandbag sessions and I am loving them. I will be purchasing your Every Day Carry now as well after watching this.Thanks for the great programming. Take care.
Didn't watched the video in the morning, but purchased the programm right away. You never can go wrong with your ideas. Thank you. The video is dope, nice oldschool Neversate. Love it.
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Absolutely purchasing this. This will be the third program from you, one custom, and the MASSbuilder. Plus I’ve been planning on purchasing three Cerberus bags so this is impeccable timing. I cannot wait! Love what you do Brian 🙏🏼🤘🏼
I'm way late to the game on transcribing this one but I think it'll be a good one for me to run at my current time in life. Thank you for posting this and all your other programs Brian. Ill be sure to let you know how badly this kicks my ass when I finish it😂
I just purchased the program and reviewed the first 2 weeks of training, it looks brutal in the best way. For anyone on the fence about purchasing one of Brian's programs; he has written me two excellent programs that pushed me to new levels of strength and conditioning. I'm 51 years old and many people ask me how I stay so fit. The answer is a good diet and Neversate. Thank you Brian!
Looking forward to buying this program to add to the Alsruhe Arsenal of pain. Although still struggling to complete 100% of earlier programs as summer heat makes those conditioning finishers a bear. Thanks for the awesome content, sir.
I have an old refrigerator I use for front carrys, it is reasonably heavy to start with and I can load weight inside it for more of a challenge. It's also good entertainment for my neighbours
You've inspired me to get into strongman recently. And you're so passionate about teaching too! You had me at 3:50 with the toddler bit lmao. I keep telling my wife I'm training for our Disney trip in October. This looks like perfect plan for me to start next. Thanks for all you do. Heading over to purchase it now!
I now have a collection :P. Massbuioder, Powerbuilder, Darkhorse, soon to be joined with this and 4Horsemen. Thats a zear of programs! In fact Brian, do you think running them in this order makes the most sense: massbuilder -> powerbuilder -> darkhorse -> 4horsemen. And where in the cycle would you add this one?
I would split up the mass builder and the power builder, if it were me (we may have different goals) But I would go every day carry, powerbuilder, Darkhorse, 4HORSEMEN then back to the mass builder. To me, that progression makes the most sense
Rocks or Logs can work but aren’t very forgiving. Get an old duffle bag and fill it with sand from the beach or dirt from a construction site. Military surplus is bound to have old canvas duffles for cheap.
I'm about halfway through the darkhorse program right now, but excited to give this a try when I'm done. I've been a police officer for about 15 years, and changing up my training to strongman a little over a year ago is one of the best things I've done for my job, especially when it comes to heavy carries and sandbag training.
No lie, this type of training and strongman training are truly the best things that any LEO could do for their health and personal safety. It’s not going to turn you into a judo master, but you definitely learn how to manipulate this kind of weight
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial thanks for the reply! Sorry for the vagueness. Should we be doing only one run for a carry day? i.e. on a heavy day, work up to one 50ft run at BW+50. Or should we be doing "reps" of runs per guidelines specific to the intensity each day. i.e. 10 runs on heavy, 8 on medium, 6 on light.
I was thinking the same thing. I know making adjustments isn't what Brain wants but I think that is a close enough variation. I dont have sandbags so my loaded carry day will be a zercher deadlift from the ground and set on pins 52in high as my replacement. Not perfect ,but close enough. Lol
Yes, anytime you front load your body, it is going to have similar effects. I say go with it until you can figure out better options! I hope it goes great for you brother
I bet some of the top strongmen could get near a 630 farmers carry. You don’t think So? Just cuz the grip strength fail? Similar to a trap deadlift and I’m sure they can easily trap deadlift 1200 pounds. So just walking with it would be the issue ? Trap bar*
Would it be sensible to use Zercher Squat, Dumbbell Incline Press, Conventional DL and Z Press as Tier 1 exercises? I dont plan on competing and prefer these lifts for my athletic and aesthetic goals.
Just purchased this program---can't wait to go over it and watch this video and dive into it!! I wanted to make sure you don't need to get a real job:)
Is that drawing giveaway still happening? I'd like to still purchase your program either way, but it doesn't hurt to have the benefit of having sandbags 😂😅
what an awesome program! I am dealing with some nasty tennis elbow issues right now but i would love to try this out when i get back to my old self again! might even buy the e-book (which would be the first time I ever bought a program from anyone!) your training principals and concepts and overall attitude have changed my life! i recently purchased 2 homes (my first), am planning to start a new business in a couple of months (my first) and am just soooo stepping outside of my comfort zone and i am here to tell ya a lot of that is due to the content you have presented here. when you step outside your comfort zone in the gym it's a GOOD thing and somewhere along the line you realize it can happen outside the gym as well and be a GOOD thing! In your own words: thank you so much for absolutely everything you do! Here's to doing something amazing with our lives, to working hard, and to being nice to each other! :D
It's Finally Here Everyone and I am beyond Proud of it! Thank you all for the Encouragement and Support!
Amazing work,now go have some rest bro
How can you purchase this program without PayPal???
Starting day 1 today. Super pumped!!!
Ordered your E-book, amazing! I do like coming back to this video though, it's a great support vehicle
Are the sandbag discount just for the US?
I just purchased the program! I’ll be in my new home next month and I’ll finally have the space to perform farmers carries; so great timing. Your programs (the first of which I bought years ago) have transformed my approach to working out and life.

You can’t go wrong with same bag training my friend! It makes you better at everything

That means the world to me David, I truly thank you so much for the support and I hope the program is an awesome experience for you brother!
Excited to dig in! I learn more and more every time
I think you would like this one a lot Edward! And thank you for always watching the videos brother I truly appreciate the support

Haven’t seen the video yet, just clicking like first
My man! Thank you!
Do you recommend a day in between workouts?
Late to the party, but bought. Appreciate your work!
exactly what i was thinking of having of your hand!
Indeed
It's a work of art, i love it !!!
Thank you so much Richard! I am truly proud of this one and thank you for the support!

Absolutely
Still using it for selection? If yes, how is your recovery with the added running/marching on off days while running the program?

Does this program ever go on sale? Times are tough these days 😢
Nah man. The book alone is over 200 pages and ask anyone who has bought one of my programs. $25 is super cheap for what you get.
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial It sounds the good brother. Unfortunately, not all of us were born within the American economy 🫡
To give you an idea, that’s about how much one large fast food meal would cost someone. That’s why I’m not dropping the price. I figure 18 weeks worth of programming is definitely worth the price of a burrito and a drink.
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial A man can only ask. Here in Thailand, the price of a fast food meal would feed my family of 5 for an entire week.
May Buddha give you a thousand blessings sir 🙏
Hey I bought the program and I’m loving it! Quick question. Bottom of page 26 it’s says “at the top of every min perform” with no duration mentioned. Should I assume you meant 10 mins?
Yes!! I am sorry man! People have found two typos already and that is one of them!
Is there a recommended rest time between workout segments? i.e strength gain set to assistance finisher
Thank you Brian! Really excited for this!
I have just one question. Are we just working up to a single carry ( one heavy carry for 50 ft)? Or are we performing that carry for a certain number of rounds or for time?
Sorry about the confusion! Love the content!
You could work up to a single carry on certain days if you wanted to, but for the most part I would do a couple warm-up runs to get to a good working weight and then stick with it and get on a clock
Just shut up and take my $25.
Great looking program already bought my sandbag, just need the farmers carry and the bar and I’ll be set.
Hit that like button 👍😇👍👍
My man!!
Everyday carry it’s concealed but’s it’s present
Always present brother. I always appreciate you
I am 6’4 about 325 but need to get down to around 245. When programming sand bags would i use goal weight or actual weight?
Just see how you go, if your actually weight it obese your not really going to cope with the extra load, it will just murder recovery.
Especially in a deficit just use 245 and if it’s super easy for the first few meso’s up it a bit.
I think moss gave a good answer brother. And sand bags are expensive so you don’t want to buy too many of them if you can help it!
Bought
Thank you so much my friend!!
Is that a reference to pew pews?
In many circles it is
Instant regret of this purchase. Listen, I am sure this program is awesome. It will work for some people, but not for me. I am not saying the program is bad, there not such thing as a bad program, but after reading it became evident very quickly that it is not the right fit for me from a logistic stand point. Simply put, they are way to many exercises, which realistically, I would not be able to accomplish in my local gym at 5PM in the afternoon. Too many people too little space and I am not talking about the carrying space either (Box Jumping followed by squatting). Additionally, while I am not new to lifting, I am not a pro either. And they are several exercises or at least the names of these exercises that I am not familiar with much less know how to complete with the correct form. It would be nice if there were more instructions about listed exercises. If, however, you are a seasoned Vet with several years of lifting with access to a hard core gym than this program would be the right fit for you. If however you are just a JAG (Just a Guy or Gal) with access to your local "......"Fitness, then this program MAY not be the right fit for you right now. Having said this, I have purchased it and will save it on the good ole thump drive until the time it is right for me.
Dude, I am happy to refund you or give you a different program but why didn’t you watch the video about this where it showed you sample workouts of the days you would be doing?
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial Thank you for responding. And while I appreciate the offer, I purchased the program and I will own it and will make use of it later. I have watched a great many of your videos and I like them all. You do great work! An more likely than not I have already seen the video you are referring too. I simply need to re watch it. But that was my secondary concern. My primary regret is that with my gym, life routine and time makes this program not right for me right now. I usually work out for an hour. They are many days, I can give it 75 mins or even 90 mins but in my gym it will take 90 + on daily basis if I undertake this program at 5PM in the afternoon. And perhaps that is my biggest regret, I simply cannot realistically start the program due to my gym and logistics. Perhaps I will have to find a new gym and that will solve everything.
Kind Regards,
Welp, found my next program.
My man! I hope it goes awesome for you Ian!
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial I'm sure it will, you haven't managed to kill me yet! Not for lack of trying, but that's neither here nor there...
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial aaand ordered. This should be fun!
Got damn....
you said BODYWEIGHT per hand.
Ya'll boys ain't playin!
That’s just to get in the game my friend, you want to believe how strong some people are at the farmers walk but it literally will make every other aspect of your training better
I can't even deadlift 2x my body weight
Got this over the weekend, great work Brian. Must admin, its been humbling - I was only carrying 55kg in each hand on Day 1 at a bw of 94kg. And the Presses into waiters walks on Day 2 I had to drop the weight considerably. I guess I'll have to cut the weight as long as I get the distance\sets in on the carries?
I always have to drop my percentages at the start of one of Brian's programs. Still end of hitting PR's on my testing week.
i'm surprised it's only 25 dollars. That's a steal of a deal, my dude.
Just for fun.
What would you say you did if you did farmers walk with the Dinnie stones like on History Channel's The Strongest Man where Brian Shaw crushed it?
That would be killer as long as you have multiple pair set at different weights.
Have been looking forward to this since you first mentioned this. Have totally gotten into sandbag training based on your RPM program and your videos. This looks to be AWESOME!!!
I am so happy to get it out to you Josh! Your support means so much and I truly think this is going to be life-changing for a lot of people, you included. Thanks again brother!
Hey brother I am planning on running this, would I need to adjust much to account for a fatiguing physical job?
I was finally able to pick up your edc amazing workout plan I suck to it pretty tightly with the exception of incorporating various farmers walks Zercher carries and along with the prescribed carries and strength has gone through the roof. Truly amazing work my friend
I’m so happy it has worked for you Adam! And thank you so much for the support, it truly means more than you know
Would like to run this but would have to make many alternatives as my gym doesn’t have kegs or stones only light sandbags ( up to 25kg )
What’s happening Brian? Love you’re content, and I’m glad you are doing way better health wise.
I have a quick question about sandbags. I’m planning on buying some, but the ones that Cerberus had are the one that you tie at the top. Would these be good for the carry project? Only reason I ask is because I’m afraid they would burst open since they are not like the zippered ones with the Velcro, and since you gotta throw them over your shoulder. Any help is always greatly appreciated. Take care.
Hi Brian, sorry to bother you. Quick question. Is there an app that you use to track your workouts or do you just log them with pen and paper? I find it hard to find something to log the sandbag workouts. I purchased your neverstate 60 sandbag sessions and I am loving them. I will be purchasing your Every Day Carry now as well after watching this.Thanks for the great programming. Take care.
Didn't watched the video in the morning, but purchased the programm right away. You never can go wrong with your ideas.
Thank you.
The video is dope, nice oldschool Neversate. Love it.
I truly appreciate that as well as the support my friend! I hope it goes amazing for you!
Just listening to what goes into this program has caused lacticacid buildup. I think I need a few days to recover. Lol. But hey lets hop to it.
Taurine powder supposed to be good. Still going?
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Absolutely purchasing this. This will be the third program from you, one custom, and the MASSbuilder. Plus I’ve been planning on purchasing three Cerberus bags so this is impeccable timing. I cannot wait! Love what you do Brian 🙏🏼🤘🏼
I'm way late to the game on transcribing this one but I think it'll be a good one for me to run at my current time in life. Thank you for posting this and all your other programs Brian. Ill be sure to let you know how badly this kicks my ass when I finish it😂
Love it!❤
A good item to use is tires. You can from carry them or even farmer carry
I just purchased the program and reviewed the first 2 weeks of training, it looks brutal in the best way. For anyone on the fence about purchasing one of Brian's programs; he has written me two excellent programs that pushed me to new levels of strength and conditioning. I'm 51 years old and many people ask me how I stay so fit. The answer is a good diet and Neversate. Thank you Brian!
Looking forward to buying this program to add to the Alsruhe Arsenal of pain. Although still struggling to complete 100% of earlier programs as summer heat makes those conditioning finishers a bear. Thanks for the awesome content, sir.
Just bought this program! Can't wait to start! Thanks for all you do for this community brother!
Getting on this as soon as I am done with 4Horseman V2 can't wait
This is going to help so many people ! Thank you ! I’m excited to run this program!!!!
Thank you so much babe! I truly pray that it does help a ton of people
I have an old refrigerator I use for front carrys, it is reasonably heavy to start with and I can load weight inside it for more of a challenge. It's also good entertainment for my neighbours
That is quality old school strongman right there!
You've inspired me to get into strongman recently. And you're so passionate about teaching too! You had me at 3:50 with the toddler bit lmao. I keep telling my wife I'm training for our Disney trip in October. This looks like perfect plan for me to start next. Thanks for all you do. Heading over to purchase it now!
I truly appreciate the kind words and the support brother! They truly mean more than you know
yep be proud . well thought out
Thank you Dene, I really appreciate that!
I now have a collection :P. Massbuioder, Powerbuilder, Darkhorse, soon to be joined with this and 4Horsemen. Thats a zear of programs! In fact Brian, do you think running them in this order makes the most sense: massbuilder -> powerbuilder -> darkhorse -> 4horsemen. And where in the cycle would you add this one?
I would split up the mass builder and the power builder, if it were me (we may have different goals) But I would go every day carry, powerbuilder, Darkhorse, 4HORSEMEN then back to the mass builder. To me, that progression makes the most sense
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial how do you mean split?
You have definitely found another gear, brother. Your year of turning big pieces of wood into little pieces of wood has done you well. 👍🏻
Haha, I really appreciate that Eric! Just trying to figure my way through this weird world haha
Love your stuff man. As a long time delivery driver getting a shout out to any of us doing that job is awesome
The world would grind to a halt if you guys weren’t around, I respect you guys like crazy!
If I don't have front carry sandbag, is there any alternatives?
I dont either for now so im doing a zercher deadlift from the floor and carry it the prescribed distance
Rocks or Logs can work but aren’t very forgiving. Get an old duffle bag and fill it with sand from the beach or dirt from a construction site. Military surplus is bound to have old canvas duffles for cheap.
Yeah man, check the timestamps of the video because I talk about a lot of different alternatives for a few minutes in the video
This looks awesome. Loved the 4 Horsemen workout, just bought this one.
Thank you so much for the support my friend! I truly hope it goes amazing for you!
I'm about halfway through the darkhorse program right now, but excited to give this a try when I'm done. I've been a police officer for about 15 years, and changing up my training to strongman a little over a year ago is one of the best things I've done for my job, especially when it comes to heavy carries and sandbag training.
Sounds interesting. I want to be a police officer in a couple of years
No lie, this type of training and strongman training are truly the best things that any LEO could do for their health and personal safety. It’s not going to turn you into a judo master, but you definitely learn how to manipulate this kind of weight
IM BUYINNNNGGGGG
My man! Thank you so much!
How should we be programming the carries beyond their specified load/distance guidelines?
That’s a little vague, can you give me some examples of what you’re trying to do?
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial thanks for the reply! Sorry for the vagueness. Should we be doing only one run for a carry day? i.e. on a heavy day, work up to one 50ft run at BW+50. Or should we be doing "reps" of runs per guidelines specific to the intensity each day. i.e. 10 runs on heavy, 8 on medium, 6 on light.
Finally !!! Thanks man , gonna get the program today.
Question tho can you sub in a zercher carry for the front carries too ?
I was thinking the same thing. I know making adjustments isn't what Brain wants but I think that is a close enough variation. I dont have sandbags so my loaded carry day will be a zercher deadlift from the ground and set on pins 52in high as my replacement. Not perfect ,but close enough. Lol
I would say go for it if it’s all you got. If you can spring for a bag I think something in the mid range/your BW would be the best bang for the buck.
Yes, anytime you front load your body, it is going to have similar effects. I say go with it until you can figure out better options! I hope it goes great for you brother
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial thank you very much
I bet some of the top strongmen could get near a 630 farmers carry. You don’t think So? Just cuz the grip strength fail?
Similar to a trap deadlift and I’m sure they can easily trap deadlift 1200 pounds. So just walking with it would be the issue ?
Trap bar*
Why the hell are you so Underated, i’ve been watching tou for years, i’ve been working out for 7 years and you influence my gym journey alots
Would it be sensible to use Zercher Squat, Dumbbell Incline Press, Conventional DL and Z Press as Tier 1 exercises?
I dont plan on competing and prefer these lifts for my athletic and aesthetic goals.
Just purchased this program---can't wait to go over it and watch this video and dive into it!! I wanted to make sure you don't need to get a real job:)
Is that drawing giveaway still happening? I'd like to still purchase your program either way, but it doesn't hurt to have the benefit of having sandbags 😂😅
Never been humbled so hard, realizing I have very low work capacity. Brutal but fun, everyone I've showed this to has called me a psycho
Hey Brian, when are you going to restock the hoodies with the barbell and axe ? Loved the gym and wilderness aesthetic.
People don’t like when I carry them😞
That is THEIR problem, not yours!
what an awesome program! I am dealing with some nasty tennis elbow issues right now but i would love to try this out when i get back to my old self again! might even buy the e-book (which would be the first time I ever bought a program from anyone!) your training principals and concepts and overall attitude have changed my life! i recently purchased 2 homes (my first), am planning to start a new business in a couple of months (my first) and am just soooo stepping outside of my comfort zone and i am here to tell ya a lot of that is due to the content you have presented here. when you step outside your comfort zone in the gym it's a GOOD thing and somewhere along the line you realize it can happen outside the gym as well and be a GOOD thing! In your own words: thank you so much for absolutely everything you do! Here's to doing something amazing with our lives, to working hard, and to being nice to each other! :D
