My father was a carpenter and he had the thickest arms. His fingers were thick and calloused to the max. Everytime I’d challenge arm wrestling or grip strength I’d fold every time.

I thought I’d never get his arms. I weight lifted, did mma, BJJ and did the conventional martial arts Strength and conditioning but i never got that thick blue collar arms and hands.

Training with these clubs has changed it all! My hands and arms are much noticeably thicker. A lot of veins and callouses too.

People notice it and they always ask about my arm day workouts. I just tell them I do club training.

I did club training not for these reasons but to improve my shoulder and arm connections when doing my martial arts . Club bells is %110 effective for martial arts!

The side effect is that it gives you badass arms.

Mark, I'm so glad one day one of your videos popped up on my YouTube. Since then I've made several different weight clubs and maces and purchased an adex fat handle club and mace. Been following your videos and using them in my workouts ever since. I feel great!!!! What the Hell!!!!

[GeneAuyeung]

5:15 my n=1 datapoint confirms this. My low back/QL pain went away when I started inside circles outside circles and shield cast, even with just a light weight starting out (6lbs handle + spindle)

[tater]

I feel like Mark is training to take down a post-apocalyptic warlord. He's got his Motorcycle Chariot ready.

This is excellent and would be even better if the last couple minutes of the video were at the start. It would be more ‘shareable’. As it’s the most crucial and applicable summary of the benefits of heavy clubs that I’ve yet seen.

[maxpower]

Agreed, the WTH Effect definitely applies to clubs too =)

[LisaHarkins]

I notice in your videos that sometimes the spacers are on the end of the club and sometimes on the handle side. This video shows spacers on both sides, concentrating the weight in the middle of the club. I get that you are manipulating the center of mass, but would love to see a video on the use cases of the different configurations (the why). Your programs have radically changed my fitness. So much extra equipment in my space now because these are so appropriate to my sport (dragon boat). Thank you for sharing free content in addition to your paid programs.

[zachupton]

Your coaching Heavy Clubs is what Pavel did for Kettlebell. Thank you!

[jlrobisho]

Love it, shield casting with saddle bags!

[brendanthebdog]

Loving my Titan Fitness clubs because Onnit didn't carry a 45lb one anymore. It's well worth it to get lower weight ones too. It is physically impossible to hold anything over a 25lb at certain fulcrum points. A 45lb club is shockingly humbling, doing a shield cast with it takes a couple weeks to build up to.

[cioran]

why not 'reasonable', levers healed my shoulder for crying out loud and knit me together like it's hard to describe, I protest ! 😂

[dineshreddy]

Love your videos man. Have been training with heavy clubs for almost an year now. On 8kg single handed and 12 kg double handed atm. So 25% of the body weight, is that standard for single handed
Or double handed. Again, love your videos and you are a great inspiration. Thanks!

[chrisvanleuven]

He is visibly getting more muscular as these videos progress, I need to listen .

[jaycegibson]

Where did the longer spindel come from?

[davidwagner]

Donnie from Adex is da bomb. I swear he is a New Jersey Gaudio hidding in Florida, most likely for tax purposes.

He does make high-quality equipment though and is more then happy to assist you.

I swear, the Wildman needs to have a class at his Junkyard/Manufacturing Facility so we can see his real world toys.

How would one include Heavy Club and Kettlbell training with progressive calisthenics (think Handstand Push-ups, Pull-ups, Front Lever Rows, Planche Push-Ups, and Heavy Single Leg Squats), along with a Sport like MMA, BJJ and MUay Thai?

[mikec]

Hey! Would you choose the Arc or Club if you can only have one or the other? I ask because this is my scenario, especially as a begiinner with absoloutely no experience with this type of training. Can I get effectively away with a longer lever than a Club?

[craigbarnard]

A club fell over on my toes, 10 lbs . Imo keep clubs laying down when not actively using.

[troymatthews]

I would have to look for 90 lb club a heavier kettlebell and a lighter mace

[kgs]

Do you have a view on weight equivalence between clubs and maces? e.g. when doing shield casts vs mace 360s does a 15 kg feel like a 10 kg mace? (from my own experience 20min 360s with a 12Kg mace feels MUCH harder than 20 min shield casts with a 15kg club)
