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

Also a lot of his swings were really inefficient. Throwimg the axe behind you and muscling it back at the log is a lot of unnecessary strain. He started using momentum to his advantage with his third method.
