Double Heavy Club - Alternating Shield cast - old School Bicep work

[@WeBreakItAllDownRightHere]

This will immediately come in handy. Outside of the onnit overview videos there is not a lot of great double club instruction that I've found. Thank you for doing this

[@be2112]

It really is quite notable how little info is out there on clubbells

[@WeBreakItAllDownRightHere]

@@be2112 We need some monstrous Arabian wrestler to emerge from the sands to teach the world how to double club your way to might and mass

[@bto330]

I'm honestly kinda shocked Mark didn't shout out the iron sheikh in this video, this was his signature move!

[@christinagipperich2780]

I used a heavy club for the first time two days ago. I’m still hurting in places I didn’t expect but it’s so fun. I love it.

[@ClaarTube]

Can’t believe how easy you make those look.

[@andrewchrist437]

exactly what I thought as well.

[@anonperson3972]

I used to love doing club work before I went to uni. I made some at home using sand and soft hollow plastic bats. Ordered some new ones to get back into it. They built a really functional and aesthetic upper body I found...

[@tex5221]

I made my own club. Basic adjustable dumbells, three 2.5kg plates on one side and a rubberbandthing to secure them (the original nut tend to unscrew so). Folded paper and duct tape as handle and swell. Grips good, works great and is super adjustable. It works double handed aswell with 4 plates

[@tex5221]

A set of two 17lbs clubs for 40$... hard to beat that. Using a stack of 1.25kg works better because the diameter of the bell is alot smaller. Now I use a piece of theraband over the handle for grip but sweat still makes them a bit slippery. Maybe paracord is the way to go for better grip.

[@MarkWildman]

Necessity is the mother of invention. Cool stuff

[@ottismymann]

Came up with identical idea except I’m working with just one 2.5 lb (not kg) plate while trying to rehab an old shoulder injury.

[@adammatchett2724]

Thanks for this new series, Mark. They arrived at around the same time that my heavy clubs did, and I've found these videos super helpful in getting started. Already hooked and ordered some more!

Never knew this was a thing, down the rabbit hole I go

[@jasonacraft]

Have fun! ...let me know if you find stock anywhere...please

Helped me alot like 50 lbs in 3 mo no fad diet haven't hurt myself. I had other experience in fighting and working out but you filled the holes

[@MarkWildman]

Glad to hear of your progress

[@ryanwann6442]

Thank you!! Any chance you’ll have some Clubbell programming videos coming??

[@carnivorousentity]

This is excellent Mark. You are a great resource for club training.

[@carnivorousentity]

Do you have any recommendations as to how frequently. I try to do something everyday and use wooden clubs to warm up/cool down. If I notice any discomfort I take a few days off.

[@MartialArtsWizard]

Clubs are so wild. A leveraged weight. I still can't help myself, but to laugh at how heavy clubbells feel relative to any other weighted utility. In life 25lbs, not so heavy. When I see Mark start swinging 25, 35, and 40lb clubs around with ease... this gent is really strong

[@etilrets]

This is more of Indian Jori swings, practiced by traditional wrestlers in India. But the length of CB increases as you increase on weight and makes it almost arms and ab excercise eventually. My question is - how many one minute cycles should you have to include in your program?

[@ralphstrabala5114]

Nice! I need more single club exercises. I'm looking for complexity, like this one.

[@LawrenceSchmettererMDFACS]

Love it! Hitting it now

[@ossian1977]

I got my first club coming on Monday (and it's an 8kg as literally there is nothing on the market in the middle range unless you want to fork out 200 USD on an extortion-price/eBay sale). Trying to absorb as much lore as possible until then!

[@hyperbolicandivote]

Smart boy!

[@gerdsiebern9648]

Hey Mark, please tell me: From what weight for you a club is a heavy club. Greetings from Germany😉

[@hangonsnoop]

Great instruction as always. Thanks.

[@nandobreiter4075]

Ah ha! Worth waiting for today!

[@echodelta1562]

Thank you for the great content in your videos. I have recently added a 6kg club bell to my kettlebell training. What are your thoughts on the lighter wooden Indian Clubs for ROM, Rehab, endurance and strength work with a range from 500 gram, 1kg and 2.5kg clubs in addition to heavy club bell work?

[@MarkWildman]

excellent tools. if you got the time, it will be time well spent

[@a.lame.username.]

I love indian clubs. I'd trained with them for many years before I discovered heavy clubs.

[@BlakeNix]

Super useful, thanks

[@abelvermeulen267]

U can suggest to fill up wine bottles with sand for a really cheap way to get started with light weight

[@brucatomassimo5816]

Bravo.... grazie.

[@daviderusso1238]

It's a traditional training. Yours is a very good modern explanation. What is the pathway for reach this goal? Is there a progression in the exercises or only in the weight of clubs? Thank you.

[@MarkWildman]

I’ll make cideos

[@herbertplumer5212]

I’ve found my left (non-dominant) shoulder is clicking doing shield casts, it’s not hurting though. Is this something to worry about? I’m going to try dropping the weight to see if there’s something wrong with my technique. Would appreciate your advice. Thank you!

[@nadiadozova6515]

Same with me. It used to click while I was swimming. I don't think is anything to worry about, but it is not too pleasent. I have noticed that if i succeed in contracting the lat and pulling the shoulder in the socket it seems to click less often.

[@christinagipperich2780]

Nadia Dozova I noticed the same thing with my left shoulder. It gets better around my third set and I really have to focus on my technique. I saw an orthopedic doctor about that shoulder for several other reasons so I know, for me, I’m not injured. I’m just old and out of shape.

[@christinagipperich2780]

I started with 5lb clubs for swings and shield casts and I’m progressing out of them. I tried looking for 7.5lbs clubs but the usual retailers don’t sell them (Onnit, Apollo, and good old Amazon). Does anyone have other suggestions for sellers or should I just get a second 10lb and work slowly?

[@scottzellner2382]

@@christinagipperich2780 The Adex club is adjustable down to 3.5 lbs. A 7.5 lb club would be a handle and a 2.5 weight.

[@christinagipperich2780]

@@scottzellner2382 Thanks! I might get one just to build myself back up. I got away from workouts this past year so it’s time to get it together.

[@larsnystrom6698]

"This IS Mark Wildman..." I didn't really had any doubts about that! Does the emphasis on IS means that there are false Mark Wildmans out there, but this is te real one? That's the impression I got. Are the false ones any good?

[@GBlackshear1]

DAMN YOU are strong AF!

[@mikesudan1493]

Hi Mark, what brand of clubs is this? Does not look like Onnit as they tend to be short clubs. I prefer clubs that are little longer then Onnit clubs.

[@guillermodermeguerditchian901]

Great!

[@HonestMan98]

Awesome exercise... you must be a beast to do 30s...

[@felixcody-levesque3751]

Great instruction Mark. Yours videos are usefull. Question about the arm shield or persian mill, I saw some people do the reverse with persian meels or light clubs. Is it a good idea to integrate with heavy club or I will wreck the elbow lig and joint? I saw you video and outside/inside but no reverse shield cast.

[@MarkWildman]

You can it’s just way lighter. I suppose you could make it work at heavy weight you’d just have start a specific program for it

[@fabianaubry3555]

@MarkWildman:Hello Mark,are the knees locked during this exercice?

[@philstyles5384]

What would you say to alternating say a 5# club with a 10# club from hand to hand in a double club scenario, instead of matched weights. Like if you do not have that many clubs. Thank you, ROCK ON WILDMAN !

[@Chiburi]

I will keep in mind that my entire life will suck if I don’t hold 90 degrees. Thank you

[@nepkire]

Why do you tape your clubs?

[@MarkWildman]

For identification

[@MarkWildman]

Yes sir.

[@MonkeOfAMillion]

Why is single club 'more effective'?

[@robmalcolm9126]

Do the club weights need to be the same or could you use say a 10 and a 15 or a 15 and a 20 and then swap over so both sides of the body get the same volume of load over time?

[@mikebizzleuk]

I believe Mark would say, choose you own adventure, which is great advice. So long as you end up doing the same reps and weight on each side you should be good 👍 let us know how you get on

[@veerchasm1]

Where the hell do you find these, they are like finding Big Foot right now

Are you in Canada? White lion Athletics in Winnipeg has pre orders to ship by month end. Yes..super hard to find.

[@SamSung-pm5bw]

You can make your own from PVC or steel. Not the prettiest but they definitely work. You can adjust how heavy by filling with sand, shot, or both.

[@ravishbhatt2140]

These are all actually ancient Indian techniques!! Its called MUGDHAR or MUDGAL, and even todays modern day indian wrestlers use it for streght of core. Indians used to have really heavy mugdhars!!
