As of late because of the influence from Super Strongman Bud Jeffries, Sledgehammer Training has been going like hot cakes and why is that?
We all realize a hammer is just a hammer or is it, what’s the significance of
having this monstrous looking object? It is actually one of the most important
tools that can be used to jack up your conditioning like burgers to a grill.
You don’t need to look like pretty boy Chris Hemsworth of Thor fame or the
folk legend John Henry, hell you don’t need massive muscles to be able to
handle it but yet if you want to take a hold of that Hammer, you need a slice
of mind power to even take a few exercises on.
When you
bring that powerful hammer down and hit a good solid tire, picture that tire as
if it was someone trying to kill you or you have to dig the biggest hole or
better yet, picture in your mind, that you’re taking down a building or
structure say a pyramid or knocking holes as if you were in the Temple Of Doom
alongside Indiana Jones, he’ got the whip, you got the hammer. Training with a
different mindset can change your body’s movement within the snap of your
fingers, if you just picture hitting a tire that’s cool and all but where the
passion in that is, it’s pretty dull. Your tire is your enemy, make it your
bitch.
One of the
coolest hammers there is, is Thor’s Hammer. Just being able to hold that thing
has something special, something that gives you power and strength the moment
you use it. When you train with it, it’s almost like you’re striking fear into
those who can’t do it or handle it. For having that Thor mindset, you want to
make that Hammer feel worthy only to you, nobody else and picture as if someone
else tried to use your hammer but can’t move it like you, swing it like you or even
strike terror into a tire like. It’s a feeling like in the movie; nobody can
move the Hammer except Thor, in the Legend of King Arthur pulling the Sword From The Stone only one is worthy to take hold of the sword. I love shit like
that, kind of reminds me of another reference, in Highlander there can be only
one. Might as well be you.
The sound
of striking a hammer is powerful, thunderous even mystical that even the great
God himself can be proud of and hearing the sound of Odin cheering your way to
victory. Victory isn't always a winning title but victory is the inner power
within that fights even when he’s struck down in the face of battle and keeps
going until his dying breath. Thunder & Lightning are at your feet; just
waiting for you to take what’s yours and pass that knowledge onto those who
deserve its power and its secrets. You are powerful, strong and cunning and
within you is a soul that is waiting to unleash hell and give everything you
have to make everything worth while. Let the hammer fall and make that hammer
apart of you as the sword is to the Samurai. Feel it, see it and hear the power
of the gods giving you the power you deserve.
