re: removing 4x4 post from concrete slab

I got one out one time with a sledge hammer (to hit wooden post to break seal where concrete was attached to wood) and a farm jack like this from tractor supply.

I drilled a hole in the post and attached a block of wood to it with a 1/2" bolt and jacked it right up out of the slab.
Was not difficult.
(eta:Sorry had not seen this was already mentioned.)

How long has the post been like that in the ground? Treated post last a max of 25 years under ground. If it's been down 12+ years as the wood has aleady started to break down, I would use a farm jack to lift it out.
