Tommi, Welcome to Shovelgloving. I have had great success with Shovelglove, and would recommend it to anyone who wants a better body without the hours in a gym that the "experts" recommend. I am currently on deployment with the Navy, and when I sent pictures to my wife of myself wearing just shorts ...

Success, twice

If you read the Shovelglove forum, you might recognize me - I'm the Navy guy who does Shovelglove on the flight deck of my cruiser-class ship on deployment. I'm up to twenty-two days of compliance with the Shovelglove plan (only green and yellow on my HabitCal for those days), but I hadn't had any s...

Congrats on making a change in your life. Some people would just give up, or would get their stomach stapled to lose weight instead of doing the hard work of slinging some steel.

My grip strength is increasing steadily, my lats (V-shaped back muscles) are getting more pronounced, and my waist is getting slimmer. I can't wait for my wife to see me after this deployment is over...five mon...

I'm jealous of your kewl sledgehammer. Mine has a rusted head and a years-old wooden handle - maybe you'd call it "retro cool". Black on black has it beat, though. I am also a "naked" shugger - no fluffy sweaters for me. I find that I get a better all over workout by doing imitative movements that i...

Navy Shugger

Hi all, I'm new to SG, although I read about it several months back. It was actually the cost of getting a sledgehammer that kept me from doing it...I just couldn't justify buying a tool that I didn't immediately need to do some work around the house. Fast forward to a week ago, when I had been on d...
