Kluv#0 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 (edited) Never seen anyone do this. I know the great Robert Miller could easily do this and some others but just wanted to share. Key on rear hold is to keep it LEVEL not upward angle- hence coin put on. Rear sledge is held for over 25 seconds. 10lb sledge is (11.3lb total) and 32 5/8" and 8lb sledge is (9.4lb total) and 30 1/2" Edited September 21, 2018 by Kluv#0 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like it would be extremely awkward to do. Very very nice!!! Did it take you a few tries to neurologically adapt to the movements combined ?

Thanks Big Baad Joe- I did it for first time this A.M. 6 months ago, I did a double front and rear pickaxe simultaneous but done held to both sides. I just stumbled on this due to having cinder blocks set up to do some hip belt work. As you know, I should have a disclaimer on the rear hold as it could be "snap city" if not conditioned, LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinnie Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I'm new to sledging, and have only tried it a couple of times, but knowing how hard I find it to do quite a bit less than that, wow! Nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you could carry on with the Weaver still talk at some point? I've seen it mentioned, but yours is the first one I have laid eyes on. Thank you Steve, I will do a Weaver stick demo next Friday and will post under my GG training log. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice. Thanks Vinnie, stick with it as it is crucial to achieving overall grip strength. Sledge training is not glamorous per se but very rewarding when you gain 1/4"- 1/2" on certain lifts, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks!! Case in point- Big baad Joe Sullivan- very new to gripsport and not huge hands but he can do business and lot of that is due to his sledge/wrist work.

If that link is weak, I would say you lose at least 25% of your possible grip potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
