I trained in strongman briefly and this old country dude in east Texas had a setup like those stones with handles. We used to go train on his ranch doing log carries and shit.

The amount of pressure and pain you feel carrying those things is insane.

Most of the guys i trained with could barely hold them for 5-10 seconds.

No, he wouldn't. Eddie Hall lifted a lot more than Kazmaier ever did.

This is an impressive performance by Eddie Williams. He basically carried 250 lbs. in one hand and 303 lbs. in the other for 103.87 feet! Albeit with a short rest along the way. Most people would not even get that off the floor! Unless they can deadlift over 500 lbs.!

And your grocery bags were nothing compared to these stones. They probably weighed 40 lbs. total lol! Did you double or triple bag? Your average grocery bag can hold about 17 lbs. If you double, triple, or quadruple bag, the carry capacity increases. Not sure if it is linear though. I guess someone can test it with a 45 lbs. dumbbell to see if they can hold it. But you're not going to get to 250 lbs. or 303 lbs.! Goofball!
