14 mins of Hammer Slamming in preperation for my 1000 rep Hammer Challenge - Total reps 280.

Basically, I'm attempting to hit 1000 reps in 1 hour with the 25kg Sledgehammer for the charity 'Children in Distress'.

I've been training since 23rd May this year and have completed 45 sessions so far with over 7000 reps in total. With only 36 days left before the event I'm aiming at over 12000 reps total in training. Let's bring it on.

After the event I'll be publishing my training tables, hopefully someone may find this interesting.




Sledgehammer Workout

The interesting thing about Sledgehammer Training is the carryover to kettlebell snatching. I've been using the 24kg kettlebell snatch test as a gauge for my progress with the hammer and have pushed out my SSST best to 252 reps (so far) over the next 36 days I intend on 2 more snatch tests and will also on the back of my sledgehammer fitness be pushing the snatch test as far as I possibly can before Christmas.
