obj: "We all know some corn-fed country boys who grew up on farms, baled hay, carried heavy stuff, ate eggs, drank milk and turned out to be strong S.O.B.\u2019s. Likewise we all know some old-timers who grew up on farms and maybe worked farms all their life. Those old-timers have old man strength. Old man farm strength is un-paralleled. I once tried to arm wrestle an old-timer who grew up on a farm. That man\u2019s arms were like steel \u2013 they would not budge an inch. Since all he seemed to do at present was drink beer and smoke cigarettes I can only assume he had done his heavy lifting on the farm and that strength just stayed with him.\nObviously the best way to gain farm strength is to grow up on a farm, doing heavy work, drinking your raw milk, and eating your eggs and bacon.\nThe next best way to gain farm strength is to do Farmers Walks.\nFarmers Walks are the simplest exercise in existence \u2013 pick up some heavy weights and walk as far as you can. Repeat. Farmers Walks are also one of the best strength builders you can do. \u00A0If you can\u2019t believe that you should try and arm wrestle ol\u2019 Billy Ray who works on his papa\u2019s dairy farm and see who comes out on top. I got my money on Billy.\nAnother beautiful aspect of Farmers Walks is that there are almost limitless variations. It only takes a little imagination and you have yourself an entire workout just carrying heavy loads. \u00A0Here are a few variations:\n1) Grab two HEAVY dumbbells and walk as far as you can. This is the most common version. This will tear up your traps and your forearms and just generally make a man out of you.\n2) Deadlift a HEAVY loaded bar and walk with it as far as you can.\n3) Grab two dumbbells, shoulder press them overhead and walk with them overhead for as far as you can walk. Also known as Waiters Walks.\n4) Clean a heavy loaded bar, press it overhead to lock-out and walk with is as far as you can.\n5) Pick up any heavy object and carry it as far as you can.\n6) Carry a heavy dumbbell or barbell overhead one arm at a time.\nEasy peasy, Japanesy. Remember to use heavy weight if you want any benefit. You wouldn\u2019t see ol\u2019 Billy Ray walking around with no 15 lb dumbbells.\n\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t5\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\tYou may also like\n\t\t\t\t\t\t    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t   Over-reliance on Science : The Value of Instinct\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t   8 Reasons Every Man Should Lift Weights\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t   How I Started the Best Blog in the World and Made ...\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t   10 Ways to Get Big and Strong\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t   The Continued Pussification of the American Male\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t   \n \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t.yuzo_related_post img{width:126.5px !important; height:88px !important;}\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t.yuzo_related_post .relatedthumb{line-height:15px;background: !important;color:!important;}\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t.yuzo_related_post .relatedthumb:hover{background:#c9c9c9 !important; -webkit-transition: background 0.2s linear; -moz-transition: background 0.2s linear; -o-transition: background 0.2s linear; transition: background 0.2s linear;;color:!important;}\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t.yuzo_related_post .relatedthumb a{color:!important;}\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t.yuzo_related_post .relatedthumb a:hover{ color:}!important;}\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t.yuzo_related_post .relatedthumb:hover a{ color:!important;}\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t.yuzo_related_post .relatedthumb:hover .yuzo__text--title{ color:!important;}\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t.yuzo_related_post .yuzo_text, .yuzo_related_post .yuzo_views_post {color:!important;}\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t.yuzo_related_post .relatedthumb:hover .yuzo_text, .yuzo_related_post:hover .yuzo_views_post {color:!important;}\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t.yuzo_related_post .relatedthumb{  margin: 0px  0px  0px  0px;   padding: 5px  5px  5px  5px;  }\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t.yuzo_related_post .relatedthumb .yuzo-img{\n  -webkit-transition:all 0.3s ease-out;\n  -moz-transition:all 0.3s ease-out;\n  -o-transition:all 0.3s ease-out;\n  -ms-transition:all 0.3s ease-out;\n  transition:all 0.3s ease-out;\n}\n.yuzo_related_post .relatedthumb .yuzo-img-wrap{\n  overflow:hidden;\n  background: url(https://boldanddetermined.com/wp-content/plugins/yuzo-related-post/assets/images/link-overlay.png) no-repeat center;\n}\n.yuzo_related_post .relatedthumb:hover .yuzo-img {\n  opacity: 0.7;\n  -webkit-transform: scale(1.2);\n  transform: scale(1.2);\n}\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\t\t  jQuery(document).ready(function( $ ){\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tjQuery('.yuzo_related_post .yuzo_wraps').equalizer({ columns : '> div' });\n\t\t\t\t\t\t   });\n\t\t\t\t\t\t   \n"@en-us
