Chopping firewood - A Man's Way to inner Peace

Buckin, when I was in my late teens I started power lifting and gained 20 lbs of muscle in a year. I used to tell my WWII grandfather about it and he wasn’t impressed. He worked on a rigging gang for Mobil Oil in Buffalo. He always said why don’t you put a pick axe or shovel in your hand? Then I joined the Marines and got disciplined and humbled. It wasn’t until watching your videos that I learned Grandpa, God rest his soul, was right. When you called logging and splitting “outdoor exercise” you were totally right. Ten good swings of a splitting axe, or cutting a tree down, or using a maul and you’re not only winded your upper musculature is taxed. So, last week I saw a cop I know who must be cycling roids because even his orbital ridges looked too proud. Didn’t hardly recognize him. He tried to convince me to get back in the gym. I gave him the same advice you gave me: pick up axe and start splitting lumber… he wasn’t too amused. Meanwhile, I’ve lost 20 lbs of fat and started getting back some definition at age 56. The Buckin fitness program. Works as advertised. Dan

A Fiskars and beer cans, sounds like someone was having a party. Happier New Year everyone!

It'll make your back, core, heart, legs, butt, wrists, hands and forearms strong. The only problem with it in the current image culture is that it doesn't make big biceps. Fairly sure there's lots of people who would take biceps over my first list, but I never heard anyone talk about a spry 80 year old guy who gets up and down and around easy because he has big biceps. Keeping flexibility, dexterity, leg and core strength sure will help that, though.

The wood just lies down and says uncle to the 28" weapon 👍

That reminds me of the silver maple I got laying in the woods. I need to go dig it out and split it up!

Mira from the Czech Republic wishes you a Happy New Year and good health for the years to come🍾🥂👍🤝🙂.

Always a pleasure to watch you splitting wood... You also inspired me to split a cord by hand and at 67 I couldn't believe I did it. All hardwoods to boot :) Thanks Buckin Happy Birthday !!!

We are all born for a reason. This man was born to annihilate wood.

I’m running though a couple of cords of Sweet Gum and it is GNARLY, friends... I’m super jealous of that straight grain wood popping like that!

The man is straight surgical! Buckin, all the best to you and all here. Happy new Year!

Wishing all a Happy New Year, I hope that next year will be better for all of us.
