Shoulders, Triceps and The Farmer's Carry

Today I did a heavy shoulder and triceps workout and added in grip training with a Farmer's Carry. I have a brand new set of Pitbull Farmer's Carry Handles. These things are simple implements but they are built very sturdy and burly. They weigh in at around 35lb. per handle and have plenty of room to add Olympic plates. I think that between the Captains of Crush Grip Trainers and the Pitbull Handles I have a pretty good set up for developing a strong grip. I can whole-heartedly recommend both of these great pieces of gear.

Today's quote is from Will Rogers:

"The farmer has to be an optimist or he wouldn't still be a farmer."

Workout: Shoulders and Triceps
Warm-Up: Perform each exercise in order to complete one set. Three sets total with no break between sets.
TRX Triceps Extensions, 20 repetitions
Seated Wall Ball Toss, 20 repetitions

Weight Training: Three sets of 6-8 repetitions unless otherwise stated.
Seated Military Press
Front Plate Raise
TRX Reverse Flies

Dumbbell Triceps Kickbacks
Dumbbell Overhead Triceps Extensions
Barbell Skull Crushers
50m Farmer's Carry, 125lb. per handle, 3 sets

Have a Great Day!
