SG from a teenager's perspective (plus hammer weight guide)

Hi, I stumbled upon this site months ago and was pretty skeptical, but intrigued. This month, I got pretty tired of the gym so I got my sledgehammer 2 days ago and man, do I love it!
My favorite part is the freedom it gives. Before, I would have distinct days for each muscle group and go through them robotically. Now, I just do whatever the fuck I want for 14 minutes daily. I've given the movements funny names like "Shove it in her cunt" and "Jerk off" (guess the original names). I actually find myself disappointed when the timer goes off because it feels so fast. I'll have to add more minutes in the future because pretending to smash stuff with a sledgehammer is just too fun.
I highly recommend SG to any forum lurker tired of the gym grind. It's plenty intense and leaves you with the same "burn" you'd get from the gym.
One thing I obsessed over was choosing the weight of my first sledgehammer, so I'll help the lurkers.
If you've done some lifting before, a 12 pounder feels just right.
If you're not sure about 12, a 10 pounder would be a great place to start.
6-8 if you're a girl or World of Warcraft addict.
