Weighted walk - is that a yoke, or what?

[judo]

it's the closest thing that i have to a yoke. it's my barbell with the plates.

I made a yoke like this:

And it was really cheap, somewhere around $20. I have loaded it up with 360 lbs so far, and it's solid that far at least. There's a big difference between having the weight at the level of your shoulders and having it swinging around at your feet; I wouldn't want to go very heavy at all with a bar on my back.

Of course, I think you have a whole lot more experience with this stuff than I do, so I don't know why I'm spouting off...

thanks tim_mcf. i will have to try that this summer. thanks for the idea. if you have any more please forward me some. i don't have that much experience w/strongman. i have competed in only 2 contest but been training for 1 year this summer. again thanks for the idea.

I actually got the idea from a sticky in the Strength Training section of this website - it's titled "DIY Strongman Equipment".

I'm hoping to make myself a log to press some time this summer. Atlas stones are probably out, but I have a whole lot of big rocks lying around my house so I can use them.
