A good old fashioned garden hose whipping

I took myself out to the goat shed with a piece of garden hose today, and I whipped my ass as hard as I could for 50 or 60 times. The garden hose is years old and just as stiff and brittle as it can be without falling apart after I literally whipped as hard as I could. I need a piece of old electric cable to do this properly. I bet if had some cable I could bust that blister thats trying to form. lol
