Londonjoseph Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Would love to see a collection of sledgehammer lifts, and impressive feats. Not a whole lot of posts on hammers, so I'll start off with this video of my own I'd just love to see hammer feats/levering of any kind. Old videos of great feats, more current ones, and other general hammer stuff is what this thread is for 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blacksmith513 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I got this from over the summer. Doesn’t count as my arm dropped too much. But it was spur of the moment. Impressed our framing crew at least. Then I lve got this with a tamper. Not sure of weight. Even with lighter hammers I’ve never been able to keep my hands strictly parallel 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedd doing 20lbs+an inch incredible. Thats like my ultimate grip goal. Hope Joe Sullivan is still doing some levering.. He was/is the King of sledgehammers...

Kluv#0 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 I shared full video on Gripboard from August 2018, 2 days before I certified on the MM2 Hand Gripper - which was not the wisest thing to do in preparation. 20LB Stamped (22.5 LB) Zero doubt Joe Sullivan was the best I had ever seen at sledgehammer levering. Second video was from Spring '23 much different but pretty difficult especially seated and off-hand. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Climber028 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 I saw him at an arm wrestling tournament last fall, he is almost entirely focused on arm wrestling these days and doing almost no grip work, sold a bunch of his implements as well and also leaned out a little Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Londonjoseph Posted February 29 Author Share Posted February 29 Darn, understandable though. Armwrestling is very demanding. I found this video super impressive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read a lot of old posts and stuff from him, all the videos were sadly deleted Not to worry. I'll make a change and start getting the highest lever numbers myself 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of his best was holding Inch DB and levering 20 LB x 6 reps! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kluv#0 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Steve Legreid is another who can lever a 20 LB and levers quite often- He is very strong dude and similar body type to Big Joe Sullivan. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just found one of his videos. Very strong dude! What a beast! I wonder what his and Joe's wingspan are. I'm 6'0 and 250lbs, but my wingspan is 6'4. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
