Sledgehammer
training is an effective, low impact whole body exercise, and is growing in
popularity, especially with CrossFit, strongman, and fitness cross-training. A
single swing incorporates your feet, legs and hips, core, chest, back, and
shoulders, and finally your upper and lower arms. These muscles working
together demand a large amount of oxygen, which makes sledgehammer swinging as
metabolically challenging as any similar exercise program, like rowing and
swimming as well as heavy bag punch training.
Short sets using maximum power will develop strength and anaerobic fitness.
Longer sets using lighter strikes will develop aerobic fitness and muscular
endurance. Because swinging a sledgehammer uses a large percentage of your
muscle mass, it is also a very effective calorie burner.
