A functional carry exercise using an unwieldy sandbag pressed against the body, training core stability and grip in a way that rigid implements cannot replicate due to the shifting load.
Form tips
Bear hug the bag against your chest or shoulder it, both are valid and train slightly different stability patterns.
Resist the shifting weight actively; that instability is the point and what makes it more challenging than a dumbbell carry.
Walk with intention and controlled breathing, treat it like a heavy loaded carry, not casual walking.
