Trap Bar Carry: 495 Pounds for 100 Feet

Last of the lift-assessment session entries — a loaded carry rather than a barbell lift.

The number

495 pounds, carried 100 feet — roughly 1.83× bodyweight for the distance.

Context

Carries don't have the same standardized benchmarking that squat, bench, and deadlift numbers do, which makes them harder to grade precisely. But relative to bodyweight and distance, this holds up well against what's typically considered solid loaded-carry performance.

Takeaway

Worth tracking over time even without hard standards to compare against — the carry is as much a grip and bracing test as a leg and back test, so progress here says something different than progress on a squat or deadlift number.
