My shovelglove routine hasn't been very challenging for the past few months, so I figured I would (finally) upgrade. I went to the hardware store and picked up a 12 pounder, figuring it would help make things challenging again without making them impossible.
It did indeed make things harder, moreso than I expected. For example, for a long while, I've been doing 50 shovels per side; with the new hammer, I was doing good to get 20 per side. And flip the lever now makes my arms burn again.
