Sledge Hammer Training

Sledge Hammer Training

Sledge hammer training has always been a very popular way of building forearm and wrist strength among many oldtime strongmen. Based on the leverage principle the sledge hammer makes a very efficient workout tool as it can provide a great deal of resistance without the need for a lot of weight. Here Murl Mitchell from Los Angeles tests his wrist strength with a pair of very interesting looking sledge hammers. Of course, the undisputed King of Sledge Hammer lifting is Slim The Hammer Man.
