Speed Endurance Training with a Sledgehammer

Sledgehammer training is a very simple but brutal form of fitness training, if you want to build your endurance then it's definitely worth a try.

If you've never tried sledgehammer training before you'll need a sledgehammer (sizes vary greatly from a few pounds to over 100lbs)and an old tyre.


Sledgehammers from 6lb to 16lb are usually available in hardware stores but anything above this and you're getting into a specialised area. Londonkettlebells do them in the UK and Torque Athletic in the US

There are many different techniques and drills for hammer training and Ross Training is a great place for some excellent information

Check out Stepf training with a sledgehammer for speed endurance. Very fast and very fit.
