@Al Ciampa Mace Swings and Benching?
I used Sledge Hammers with 10-20lb for Mace Swings and liked it a lot. Playing with Sledgehammers is very satisfying, like lifting a stone or bending a 60D.
I never stuck with it though. I have been doing a run or Smolov Jr for Bench and thought Mace Swings might be a good compliment to pressing. I know some use Mace Swings to warmup for pressing.
It definitely cues to not let the shoulder separate and using the lats.
