April Challenge: Magic 60

[finnegan]

To give a little bit of context, I just got 596 sledgehammer swings w/ a 10 lbs hammer in 10 minutes a couple weeks ago, and if I hadn't stopped every hundred to tally it, I'd have cleared 600 (which I'll do next time). That's a swing a second, for 10 minutes.

Much like the deadlift challenge, you can speed up the swings and snatches by forcing the weight downward instead of just letting it fall.

I am old - but I could still take YOU!

That's a smokin' pace, finn, but with a much simpler movement and much lighter weight. Very mpressive nonetheless.

Start picking out your avatar choices - I have no problem eating crow when I'm wrong - just doesn't happen often.

[Valgarv]

All other things aside, being able to direct people at the video and saying "do that" would be much easier than trying to explain it.
