Because of a lumbar disk issue I had last year (that has been corrected with treatment) my osteopath strongly recommended that I not do deadlifts anymore. He's seen too many people get hurt, even so-called professional trainers.

I've been substituting them with kettlebell swings, but have discovered the Farmer Walk. I love it! Here's an article that explains what it is, the benefits, and how to do it correctly:

Anyone else ever tried this?
