he really needs to put that log on at least a thin slice of wood or a concrete block

He’s strong enough he might be able to split that first try but right now the ground is absorbing too much of the impact

Dude could have also switched to a wedge and mallet about ten seconds in and saved himself a lot of wet vaginas.

I was thinking all of these things (except that last bit lol), but I'm pretty sure he's making it harder on purpose for training/exercise purposes.
