Weighted Sandbag Carry Bear Hug

Stand upright while holding a sandbag vertically against your chest in a tight bear hug position with your arms crossed.

Engage your core and take a large step forward with one leg, keeping your torso tall.

Lower your hips toward the floor until both knees form roughly 90-degree angles.

Push off your front foot to drive yourself back up to the starting position in a controlled manner.

Repeat the movement on the opposite leg or continue walking forward for your desired number of repetitions.
