    As a side note from reading Dan's blog post on Intervention he says that introducing the loaded carry can be the biggest game changer to an athlete?

    "However, in terms of simple impact, the ability to be a “game changer” to an athlete, this is the order:
    1. Loaded Carry
    2. Squat
    3. Hinge
    4. Pull
    5. Push

    Just wondering what peoples opinions are on Dan's statement above? Sorry if I'm hijacking the thread & sending it in another direction.

    Only seeing this thread now. I'm halfway through Never Let Go - great read and am sorry i didn't have a book like it 10 years ago!

    Just in relation to the above - what constitutes a hinge exercise?

    Anything hamstring dominant. Deadlift, KB swing, snatch, clean etc and their variants.

    I would have thought not.

    the load should be fully supported by the carrier, not dragged or pushed along the ground.
