Abadjiev has repeatedly given the example in seminars and interviews of a handful of his top lifters being unable to move a piano up the required flight of stairs he needed them to. Then some random movers intervened and completed the task with ease.

I think touched on in the video, movers are used to lifting awkward objects like pianos and probably have done so many times. It might not be that they are "stronger" but they are better able to apply and leverage their strength and balance to something like that. But I think people who work a lot of physical labour in general have a strong grip, strong hands, fingers, and forearms. Things that are hard to train with barbells and dumbbells, and certainly not to the degree of doing so multiple hours a day, almost everyday, for years. Having a monster grip/monster forearms is pretty underrated. A lot of these guys will look fairly skinny as well but you'll be surprised at how strong they are when it comes to carrying, pushing, pulling and hauling things.

Bob Hoffman said that while farmers, coal haulers etc were strong and had endurance, they could not compare with butchers. Writing in the 1930s, he reasoned thus "Aside from large amounts of protein, which can be either eaten or traded for whatever foods they might require, butchers, I have observed, have one day a week where they must lift many heavy carcasses from one place to another, doing intensive work to cut them down to the size the housewife desires. The rest of the week, they do relatively light work. In this, they acquire the stimulus and rest needed for real limit strength."

That stuff definitely makes for a foundation for future barbell training. Similar to prior athletics, but potentially even better. I think it's an underrated concept in general. At this point I care more about the dummy aspect I think though, rather than the max amount I can lift on a bar (for the most part).

I trained a girl once who was really short, 5’0 at most, a little chubby maybe about 150 but let’s say “advantageous female fat distribution” 😉 (trying to be professional lol) she lived on a farm and had never lifted before. She got a 105 pound strict press on her first day with at least 10 pounds in the tank and we worked up to 225 deadlift and she was still pulling easily - I think she could’ve gotten 275+ even but I didn’t want to max her out on her first day. I know for sure my first time ever strict pressing when I was a teenager I didn’t get anywhere damn near that 😳… and my deadlift was probably 225 for 1 max. At 5’10 250+ For a 19 year old girl never been in a gym in her life to at 5’0 150 to put up those numbers i was mind blown. I’ve trained a lot of women and a lot of them can’t do the bar for one rep on pressing movements. Farmer strength bros.

Growing up, my dad owned a firewood bundle company, so we always had to stack wood and carry bundles(probably 30-40lbs each) out of the truck onto the ground and stack them. We did it in the winter too. It was a good exercise for me as a kid and an excellent example of dummy strength. Definitely resonate with this video Alec, you made some good points.

Would love to see you do more content on dummy strength. It’s always fascinated me and for some reason, I have a hard time finding a lot of good content on the subject, compared to standard weightlifting, powerlifting, etc. Dummy or “farmer’s strength” as I call it, seems just like one of those enigmas wrapped in another enigma. Perhaps in a future video, list some more specific exercises to help train this? I have a 120lb max rated sandbag myself and feel that my imagination and knowledge is what limits me to doing training geared more towards dummy strength. Great video!

You said a mouthful, when you said carries. That damn sure carried over to everything front rack related, as well as my high bar squat, and deadlift. I actually feel like implementing carries while also front squatting actually builds the lift better than just more front squatting. I even think that the combination of farmers walks, and front carries combined might actually build the front squat, moreso than the actual front squat. Because your legs can already handle what you are front squatting. What you really need is above the belt.

I've always wondered about this as well. It seems that kids tend to physically develop in ways that facilitate whatever their athletic pursuit is. However, I think out of all the athletic qualities I can think of, raw strength is one of the easiest to acquire, especially for adults. The athletic qualities associated with gymnastics (for example) are much more difficult to develop after childhood. I'm curious what Alec's take is on this.

Little late to this video, but when I switched to working out at home, I invested first in a regular fitness sandbag that can go up to 130#. Did a lot of lifts with it and Kettlebell work. Then added a 200 # strongman sandbag that I had to start at 150 #, until I progressed to full weight. Doing shoulders with it, shoulder slams, weighted carries and weighted drags, my strength went to a whole nother level. It also blew up my neck, back, arms, forearms and legs so much more, despite adding size not being my primary goal. I went with it because it was super fun to do and it really helped augment my "dummy strength", which in turn helped me a lot with grappling when I would go to mma practice. It's also nice to show off when people see my 200 # SB lying on my front porch and ask if I can really lift that and I proceed to do so and they're perplexed lol One day my goal is to be able to lift a 300 # bag.

I just bought my first house last month, and the first thing I did was splurge on a bunch of strongman equipment. I've been wanting to do this type of training but couldn't in my apartment. I could only do barbell training in the back room (and have been training like this for 5 years). now that I have a good sized backyard, and a driveway from the garage, I can do throws, farmers walks, yokes, ect. after one month of this style of training I've learned so far that fundamental barbell training still has its place and can provide the backbone for everything else. dummy strong is a way to add some skill to the foundational strength made with a barbell.

I worked on hay and cattle farms in Eastern Washington up until I was 25 and one thing I that really stuck out to me after watching this video was that I never worked on a level surface. Almost all the bale bucking and fence building I did was on some sort of hillside with varying degrees of steepness with uneven footing. Also a lot standing and catching bales on a shaky hay stack. I rarely was carrying things above 110 lbs (bales and fencing materials), but it was typically done over spans of 20-30 feet for 8+ hours at a go. Turning an ankle was always a possibility.

Dummy strength all the way. Someone (I forgot who) mentioned in another video that people who do the big compound lifts with somewhat inconsistent and suboptimal form also gain a form of "dummy strength" where they can get in a compromised position and still grind through the lift, whereas someone who trains precise technique might actually get injured in that position. My only concern is how you'd go about training dummy strength in a typical gym which may lack the implements or space for "dummy strength work", and more importantly there seems to be a stigma against odd lifts with "improper" form and stuff that vaguely resembles functional fitness.

I started training with some natural stones, mainly picking them up and carrying them. My whole upper body was on fire, and my abs and glutes as well. I had trained with sandbags before worked up to 275ish and could pick it up pretty easily. But the density of the stone made it way harder to hold, cause unlike the sandbag the stone won’t give in and surround your hands. At least that was my reasoning for it being so much harder

Cool topic! I've been thinking about this since I saw Brian Alsruhe's channel and I tried it. Although it's very fun gym work but you are completely right, the thing is all this work very taxing, especially for low back and to do any other athletic stuff is very difficult and it's probably never gonna be near 100%. That's the reason why strong man athletes are only good in lifting stuff and that's it. But being genetically small like bellow 100kg at least you are never going to become stupid strong, only in relation to your body weight same time you limit your athletic potential, so to emphasise it in this case I don't think is very reasonable, maybe 1 session per week is okay.

For instance he got very dissapointed on my sisters man whos trained in the gym for 30 years. He needed help with some heavy things and enlisted my sisters man, but ”He wasnt really strong at all!” was my dads comment. Even now when hes 72 hes stronger than me even though being smaller.. I also remember when he had a farmer friend over. Standing on the porch we started talking about pullups. And from nowhere the farmer friend sayd ”well its been a really long time since I tried these” and did a one arm pull up! Men who work with their body are just on a whole other level.

When I was 12 years old my doctor told me that I couldn't squat or deadlift due to a vertebrae problem (Turned out to be nonsense advice). Anyway, my trainer often had me replace squats and deadlifts with super heavy sled pushes. I treated each push like a 1RM. I shit you not, I was pushing over 600 lbs consistently and even touching 700+ at 12-13 years old. While my squat and deadlift may not be as "strong" as they could have been had I trained those exercises earlier, I guarantee you that my legs are far more powerful than they otherwise would have been had I not done that sled work.

Seems to me that a lot of martial arts build dummy strength as well. I think this is because you are trying to move / punch a living moving thing that is actively trying to resist your movement.

Agreed! It's a different ball game. Strength training can certainly be a helpful tool to augment that as well!

Yeah gym strength has little to no carry over to real life strength. It sucks when your boyfriend goes to the gym and lifts heavy ass weights but then he is not able to lift you even if you weight less than 1/4 of his squat 1RM :D

I believe you’re wrong. I think the strength cultivated in the gym just needs practice moving and additional work capacity. Most gym strength training is static and usually most trainees don’t push the boundaries of their work capacity.

This reminded me of Alex Bromley’s video Re: strongmen taking over squats (kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3LXd4mNjNuFqLM). Love this concept and someday will incorporate more strongman-like stuff to my training. Thanks!

Wrestlers are another example of people with "dummy strength". There is no form of resistance that is more awkward and unpredictable as another human trying to physically impose themselves on you. Lol

MindPumpTV talked about this in their podcast too, although, not verbatim. They talked about Central Nervous System recruitment. Big compound lifts, such as barbell squats taxes the CNS, and in turn trains the CNS to recruit the whole body to become better adept at barbell squats. Regarding Farmers Walk, this exercise also taxes the CNS and in turn makes the CNS more adept at recruiting full body strength. MindPumpTV suggests that if you do the heavy Farmers Walk, and then go bench press your normal weights for reps, that'll feel easy. This is due to the fact your CNS was heavily active and already recruited your whole body.
