Right, as I mentioned in my other post, it would get tedious to say "rokushakubo" every time...

 

I think if you are really focused on getting muscles, then lifting weights or other things (For my upper body, I use some of the traditional Okinawan equpiment to target specific things) would probably be the most efficient and a lot safer then using a really heavy bo.

I wouldn't recommend sparring with it, but PVC is pretty strong. It does wobble a little with the sand in it (if you try to use it too fast), but not that much. As I said before, I wouldn't recommend using it for fast technique as you could hurt your shoulders. It will build good wrist/forearms and shoulders.

 

If you use it slow, when you switch to a normal staff your technique is MUCH faster and noticable stronger.
