TribeWOD Sledgehammer

If you need a heavy sledge hammer for working out this is what you need. It has a sturdy rubber head so you do not need a tire or padding to hit.

Loving using this because you can slam it on the ground with no tire, although I hit a tire with it.Personally feel its a bit overpriced IMO.But its well put together so I wont drop a star for that.

Im a big fan of SledgeHammer Workouts. I started doing them when I was working out with my Firghterfighter friend at some of his training events. They had us hitting large tractor tires and the Keiser Force Machine. These workouts were killer. Since then I had to get one. Ive used a standard sledgehammer for years but after several injuries and being sick, I havent used a sledgehammer in a few years. Before the time off, I was at the limits of the hammer and looking to get a bigger one.When the Odin Sledge Hammer became available I had to get one. This hammer is heavy enough that I can use it in my other mobility workouts and sumo squats. Plus if I need to upgrade the weight I can get heavier plates.First of all, this is a HEAVY hammer. Its more than 25lbs. The added plates add the 25 lbs to the hammer I think. Its difficult to swing. If you arent strong enough to swing, get something lighter. This thing can hurt you if you arent ready for it. I can swing it a few times before Im tired. But its a great weight for Sumo Squats.The hammer is made well. But it was covered in manufacturing dust and got all over my hands. I had to wipe down the hammer several times to get it clean. The rubber cover head does a good job at cushioning the blows. I tried hitting it on a concrete slab and it works great. No damage. However, I wouldnt use it in your house or driveway (if you do, make sure to hit different spots each workout).I like the hammer and if you are looking for a heavy sledgehammer this might be the one for you.

This exercise sledgehammer is better than I had expected!! It is heavy and well designed for an efficient workout. Well worth the money

First of all, the quality of this hammer is amazing. I was skeptical about using it without a tire, but slamming it into a horse stall mat works just fine. The rubber casing around the head of the hammer is appears to be extremely durable and should last a lifetime. My first impression was that the hammer wasnt top heavy enough, but that didnt concern me, because I knew that I could order add on plates. I immediately ordered the add on plates and after an ordeal (see separate review on add on plates) I now feel like I have an exceptional product. I now love this thing, but cant give it 5 stars because I dont believe that the product has been perfected yet. Tribe WOD if your listening...please iron out the wrinkles and make heavier add on plates. If I had the option of going heavier than 35 lbs. and had the proper hardware included, I would give this product 10 stars.
