CARRY

Carrying is the act of picking something up and then transporting it over a designated distance. We engage in this activity all the time, often taking it for granted as a simple daily task. However, it is a fundamental human skill that we possess, and this ability has played a significant role in making us the dominant species on this planet. The skill to walk upright on two feet while simultaneously carrying various items—such as food, supplies, and tools needed to build our civilizations—has been crucial throughout our history. Even in today's modern world, filled with advanced machines and technology, it remains essential to be proficient in this skill. Being capable of confidently picking up and carrying items weighing up to 50 pounds, whether it be feed, construction materials, or supplies for gardening and planting, is still a very common and necessary task. While it is indeed convenient when someone assists in loading these heavy items into your vehicle from the store, once you arrive home, you want to feel capable enough to move them around on your own. Incorporating carries into your workout routine will not only enhance your strength but will also significantly improve your cardiovascular conditioning, making you more adept in various physical tasks.
