There's also an even better way to tighten the cog without needing a chain whip.
Brilliant Technique
I use this and don't own a chain whip, this technique makes one redundant. As long as you're careful not to damage the paint round the BB and don't tighten too much as the method is so good it's easy to strip the threads on a cheap freewheel hub.
