Best Answer

Scandinavian boys from families engaging in the raids and conquests that made Vikings known and feared across Europe would train with experienced fighters, watching and copying their movements with weapons of various typ es. Group skirmishing with dull weapons may well have been a part, in fields muddy or dry. Strength would have been developed by the daily life of farming, fishing, rowing wooden boats and refined with the use of weapons. The weapons would not have been tremendously heavy, but try waving a steel tool weighing three or four pounds at arms length for any length of time and you'd soon realize what an aspiring sword or axe fighter would feel like after practice.
