Ladder Climb Suitcase Carries & Natural Stone Loading

More fun times and variety in my training.Show more

The first ladder set was six reps with 90 pounds in hand. The second set, four reps with 90, and an added 40 pound vest. I followed that with three rounds of alternating loading a 126 pound natural stone and a 175 pounder.

By the final rep my grip was just about gone, and my legs felt a bit weak. On a positive note, the 126 pound stone that I used to struggle with felt quite light in comparison to the other. It would be fairly easy if it wasn't for the jagged edges on it.

After these sets I did some slow cardio on the cross-country ski machine, and split a bunch of firewood. It may not be a very conventional workout but I'm enjoying myself (and really hammering my core stabilizers)!
