500 - 3 x per week.... HELP!
-
depends on the walk...although I guess actual farmers walk vs a 45min walk with weights is probably different

[quote name='V-Diddy' timestamp='1358752271' post='338787']Farmers carries completely pointless with 10kg weights<br />
<br />
Try turkish getups and one arm snatch (10 reps each side) for a bit of core work[/quote]<br />
<br />
Agree. Unless 10kgs is a "struggle" you really need heavy DBs for farmers carries. <br />
<br />
1-arm DB swings. <br />
Floor wipers holding up the 2 10kg DBs would be okay<br />
DB squat press -
With only the 10 kg dumbbells, I recommend walking down to the local park with the weights on hand, then this (besides buying me the beer I'm owed <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/rugby/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />) in sets of no less than 20 and no particular order with 10 second breaks only if you need them:<br />
<br />
Arnies<br />
Bicep curl<br />
Hammer curl<br />
Bent row<br />
Squats (hands at shoulder level)<br />
Lunges (hands hanging low)<br />
Straight leg dead lifts - just to exercise the back<br />
Plank - 30 second minimum<br />
Push ups<br />
Chin ups if you have somewhere at the local park to do it<br />
Sprint the length of the park, then sprint back.<br />
<br />
If you can run through that then you should be blowing a bit. Once you can do 20 of each, do 25.<br />
<br />
Then walk home with the weights. -

If your girlfriend (or another friend) is strong you can use a towel and try some resistance work, ie tug of war (seated and standing), resisted sprints, arm curls and squats<br />

I might take a weeks leave and spend my days walking up and down lambton quay just so I can chase down a purse snatcher. Kind of worried that this is gonna happen while I'm at work and it might be hard to run in a suit.
