    Sledge Hammer Workout

    I went and got a 16 pound sledge hammer today and like a sign from god, I have found TWO tires just laying around on the sidewalks. Im so excited thinking about it that it is fifteen minutes past midnight and I am thinking of going out to a park right now and doin it.

    FOr those that dont what Im talking about, basically you just hit a tire with a sledge hammer over and over and it builds your arms and back.

            I did it today for about a half hour. My arms felt pretty solid after especially my biceps. My back doesnt seem to have gotten a workout at all though.

                    does it matter how big the tire is?? I just have a regular car tire that I found.
