Use a leather leash, 6 ft long. ONLY USE CHOKE CHAIN IF YOU KNOW HOW TO USE IT. There is a right way & a wrong way & if you don't know how to use the choke chain you can really harm your dog. a choke chain is a wonderful training tool if you know how to use it.
I learned to train with a choke chain & a loose leash. Using my bodylegs to make corrections. This makes the dog pay attention to you as to what you are going to do next.

I use a harness as a dog trainer told me choke chains cause pain and teach nothing, I have mastiff not always friendly has a playful aggression and weighing 8 stone on pure muscle can be handle but the harness works perfectly

If it is a big or strong dog, I recommend a leather leash. This is because leather is easy on the hands when you have to hold it tight. If it is a small dog, it doesn't matter. For proper training, a 6-foot leash is good because you can walk around the dog and so forth. For walking the dog once it is well trained, 4 feet can be good.
Of course I assume somebody is teaching you how to use a choke chain. There is a particular technique to it. It is not intended to hurt the dog.
