Levering Implements

On the 5th day of Gripmas my true love gave to me…a Sledge Hammer, Adjustable Dumbbell, and kettlebell.  I know what you are thinking; she is only supposed to give me one thing.  Well in this video, I explain how to do levering with more than just one implement.

Levering implements particularly sledge hammers has been around for a long time and for good reason.  It builds great strength in the forearm, wrist, and grip.  Besides, it is a lot of fun just challenging yourself or a friend.  If you are just starting out; start very light and gradually increase your resistance.  Depending on your strength or skill level you may want to just start off using a normal hammer and progress from there to a light weight sedge.  It won’t take a lot of weight to feel this one working right away.

Let me know what you use or come up with for levering weight.

Enjoy,
