Did about 30 minutes of pick-axe swinging and dirt shoveling to help my hubby out in the yard.
I would say KB swings carry over very well into pick-axe swings. Stance is a bit different, but the idea of not using your arms to slow the downward momentum is the same. I think the axe weighs about 20 pounds so its not a hard swing, just difficult to work out the logistics of letting the top hand slide down the axe-handle so that the axe can fall freely. Otherwise you lose the downward momentun AND you get some nasty blisters.
