Kettlebell Suitcase Carry
The kettlebell suitcase carry is a unilateral loaded carry that forces the obliques and quadratus lumborum to resist lateral flexion. Carry a single kettlebell at your side and walk without leaning, building deep anti-lateral core strength.
How to Perform
Hold a single kettlebell in one hand at your side with a firm grip.
Stand tall and brace your core — your torso should not lean toward or away from the weight.
Walk in a straight line with controlled steps for the prescribed distance or time.
Switch hands after each set to train both sides equally.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Leaning away from the weight to counterbalance, which reduces oblique engagement.
Hiking the shoulder up on the loaded side instead of keeping it packed down.
Walking too fast and losing the anti-lateral flexion demand on the core.
