Chopping with heavy stick

KeysVideoTutorial

Explosive diagonal “woodchop” pattern using one or two heavy sticks/clubs for power, core bracing, and shoulder–hip coordination.

Why: trains hip drive, anti-rotation core, lats/obliques, forearm grip; carries over to striking, throws, and daily lifting.

Setup:

  • Feet shoulder-width, athletic stance.
  • Neutral spine, ribs down.
  • Overhand grip near the ends; wrists neutral.
  • If using two sticks: mirror grip and match angles.
