Default Re: Exercises for Wood Carvers

Muscles are task oriented. Certain tasks require specific muscles to perform. Squeezing the ball will make you a ball squeezer of legend, but carving the hell outta some HARDWOOD (bocote, cocobolo, purpleheart, ebony, etc..) will give some great resistance training; the 'push/pull' of blade control, etc...
Some serious time at the hardwoods will perhaps make a carver of legend, or, at very least, a carver of hardwoods with the control and power of legend..
