I've started adding loaded carries to most of my sessions since completing Dan's Post-Deployment Program last Fall. That program features them along with lifts and mobility.

Without going that heavy (24kg suitcase carries are near the higher end right now for me) I've noticed increase thickness and deeper 'cuts' (I'm not that lean so cut needed to be parenthetical) through my entire trunk. I usually go anywhere from 50 to 100 yards per carry. I'd be interested to see what you find from doing them GTG style throughout the day.

For my money I think you'll see great returns. The combination of a suitcase carry and 10 1-handed swings really seems to hit my core, FWIW. And for clarity, I'm not overly sore, but can definitely feel an increased stability through my entire abdomen a day or two following a lot of carries.
