Got it.....

Finally bought my 8lb sledge at good ol' Home Depot this evening. So now I just have to get started using it.

I must admit I feel weird about it...a little sheepish sort of...slightly embarassed..not sure. I think just 'cause it's so unusual.

Wish me luck.

The embarrassment goes away when you realize that you can now strangle a bull with your bare hands

Good luck! And easy into it slowly -- it's much harder than it seems. And you won't fully feel it till the next day.

Reinhard...I had to laugh out loud at the 'strangle a bull with your bare hands' comment

Can't you just see someone talking to a personal trainer or such and when asked what their fitness goal is they reply...."I want to be able to strangle a bull with my bare hands"... too funny!

Thanks for the encouragment. I'm going to start tonight, as I'll be skipping a walk to give my body time to recover from yesterday. I have bad feet, knees and hips, so I have to be careful to not overdue it or I'll end up injured and quit.
