Your progress
Keep the same other setup, range of motion and recording method when comparing Forward Drag with Press sessions.
Weight, distance, duration and completed sets.
Example: carry 20 kg for 30 m in 25 seconds. Note whether your weight entry is per hand or the combined load.
Keep load, route and recording convention visible together. A longer carry with a lighter weight cannot be reduced to one claim about getting stronger.
