Husafell Stone Carry

Name: Husafell Stone Carry
Brand: Titan Fitness
Rating: 4.11 (12 reviews)

The Husafell Stone Carry is Titan Fitness’s plate-loadable take on the Icelandic strongman stone carry – rather than a solid quarried stone, it’s a hollow HD steel vessel with laser-cut carrying handles and an 18.5” top opening, so lifters load it with weight plates, sand, or chains instead of buying a fixed-weight stone outright. It ships at 97 lb empty and stands 30” tall by 28.5” wide by 6” deep, with an 8.5” wide base built to sit on an event platform or loading block between reps. The trade-off for the lower cost and adjustable loading is feel: because the load sits inside a hollow shell rather than being cast as one solid mass, lifters report the weight can shift noticeably as it comes off the block, unlike a genuine stone where the mass is fixed and evenly distributed.

What is a Strongman?

Strongman equipment trains raw, functional strength through odd-object lifting, carrying, and loading — atlas stones, yokes, farmer’s handles, sleds, logs, and tires — rather than the fixed, balanced resistance of a barbell. It’s a fit for lifters who’ve plateaued on conventional strength training and want to build the grip, bracing, and full-body coordination that competition strongman and functional fitness demand, or who simply want the most direct training carryover to real-world lifting and carrying tasks. Most pieces are bulky and some (tires, natural stones) are sourced or repurposed rather than bought outright, so plan for storage space and, in a few cases, DIY sourcing as part of owning this equipment.

Titan’s plate-loadable Husafell Carry swaps a genuine quarried stone for a hollow steel vessel, and both hands-on reviewers found that trade-off pays off: a well-built, easy-to-load implement that does what a Husafell stone is supposed to do for a fraction of the cost of a real one. Value is the standout dimension – reviewers who’ve used other Husafells call this one an easy way into stone-carry training without the price tag. Functionality is the weakest spot: the empty-vessel design means loaded weight sits low and shifts as you lift it off a block, which one reviewer describes as a sudden chest-level impact you have to brace for, and the awkward grip (no handles, just an arch to hook your arms under) takes real practice to execute safely.

+Value: priced well below a genuine quarried Husafell stone while "did everything I needed it to" for event training (YouTube: Pancakes N Weights)
+Build quality: "overall it seems like it's really good quality product" straight out of the box, with only cosmetic shipping scuffs easily touched up with paint (YouTube: Chris's Garage Gym)
+Functionality: two carrying handles make it easy to move and reposition between sets despite the 97 lb empty weight (YouTube: Chris's Garage Gym)
+Versatility: 18.5" top opening comfortably fits multiple standard weight plates, plus sand or chains, so load is adjustable for different lifters (Titan Fitness product page; YouTube: Chris's Garage Gym)

−Functionality: loaded weight shifts forward as you lean back to lift it off a block, delivering a sudden "punch"-like impact to the chest that reviewers say to expect on every rep (YouTube: Pancakes N Weights)
−Functionality: the no-handle, hook-your-arms-under-the-arch grip is awkward to learn solo and prone to swinging between the legs on pickup (YouTube: Pancakes N Weights)
−Build quality: shipping damage to the box was notable enough that one reviewer expected -- but didn't ultimately find -- real damage to the unit itself, just minor surface scratches (YouTube: Chris's Garage Gym)
−Durability: no long-term wear data available -- both independent accounts are first-impression/early-use only, not extended-use reviews
