Gravity Fitness Steel Indian Clubs, Cast iron Clubbells

Product Information

First, tethering any relatively heavy weight to your arm, wrist, and or hand is foolish at best. Assuming the tether works as intended you are looking at potential shoulder, elbow, and wrist damage if the club goes flying. Second, I have noticed most people who use Clubbell do not use the tethers.” That said, there are a LOT of free online instructional tutorials that are excellent, if you’re willing to look for them. I’ve seen great clubbell tutorials from Scott Sonnon, Adam Steer, Shane Heins, and others over the years. They’re out there if you’re patient enough to search for them. That might be reason enough to also invest in a heavier clubbell instead of a more expensive instructional program. It all depends on your preferences.

Learn all about the Clubbell equipment itself in the Product Review (videos): This is where you’ll get all of your product-related questions answered, including detailed information about what the clubbell is, what it’s made of, quality and design considerations, what makes it unique, and who the clubbell is best suited for (and not best suited for). Determine if the Clubbell is the right training tool for you: This section will deal specifically with who can benefit from the clubbell, and who cannot. If you’re trying to make up your mind about whether the clubbell is right for YOU and your circumstances, then this section will provide you with the answers you need. Indian Clubs– The smaller ones, though easier to maneuver around the body, are too light to create a substantial adaptive training effect for the whole body. The larger Indian clubs, though traditional, are too bulky to swing around the body during most exercises, and thus, have a very limited margin of use. Improved joint mobility and stability, muscle flexibility, and connective tissue strength – reducing the risk of injury through pre-habilitation (aka concentrated injury prevention). Wooden clubs are the most traditional in terms of looks, come in wide range of weights, and tend to also look nice and rustic. Wood also has a nice, natural feel in the hand, and you’re less likely to sweat with wood than with other options.If you’re wondering how you’re going to learn how to swing those clubbells, and which educational resource is the best one, take it from someone who owns and has used them all. I’ve reviewed every single clubbell training product ever released, and I’ve come to the conclusion that Shane Heins’ Clubbell Flow Evolution program is hands-down the best clubbell instructional material there is, and by far the best value out of everything currently available. If money isn’t an issue, then go ahead and get the 10’s first. That would be ideal, and will help you ease into the transition to weight swinging. I started with a pair of 5 lb mini-clubbells and used them for a year before upgrading to 10’s and 15’s. That said, a pair of 15’s is probably the best investment you could make for long-term training. They will definitely be challenging in the beginning, but after a few weeks, they should feel manageable. And you’ll never truly outgrow a pair of 15’s. Your presentation on Clubbells was well done. You appear to be quite a Clubbell enthusiast. I watched your two videos, and as said your presentation was outstanding. Unfortunately it was very biased and followed Scott Sonan’s questionable statements regarding Indian Clubs etc…”

I could buy a few more clubbells to have matched sets, but I haven’t found this necessary other than my starter pair of 15s.. I do a number of asymmetrical exercises such as swings holding a 20 and 25 clubbell plus a few different single hand exercises.Steel clubs have proven to be extremely beneficial for improving grip strength for those who are recovering from injuries and have a weak grip. Of course, it’s not only beneficial for those who are rehabbing their grip strength. Not by a long shot. Otherwise, why would one use a rubber mallet rather than a steel hammer, or vice versa? You use a rubber mallet because you want to impart less force than a steel hammer. Rubber will absorb more of the impact. Whereas, steel will impart more of the impact. What will you get out of it? As bodybuilders, the first and most important gain will be awesome grip strength and shoulder stability. It will translate to things like military press increases and bench press stability within weeks of starting. You'll like the results.
