Alas, no specific mention of "shovelglove."

From:

Michael Clarke Duncan lost 90 pounds after adopting a farm-style workout regime he created for himself. The star, 49, weighed in at 360 pounds a year ago when he decided it was time to tone down, so he bought himself a tractor tire and a sledgehammer.

The actor ran with the 100-pound tire strapped to his waist and used the sledgehammer to work his love handles.
Michael, if you're lurking here, it's time to decloak! :-)

I found another source for this article.
Apparently, he used the sledgehammer to 'hit a tire', a lot like some other sledgehammer enthusiasts perform on other sites.
He would do 100 strikes, and some sprints with the time.
Then he would do 20 strikes, run a sprint....do 20 strikes, run a spint...etc...you get the picture. But, again, he went from 340 -350 lbs down to 275.
