Selection of mace weight along with the unique separation of the workout offers accessibility for complete novices, however taken as a whole the workout is nothing short of a gauntlet cast at the feet of any elite fitness barbarian. Mace training intrinsically offers advantages over linear training in employing power systems in full range of motion rather than fixed planes. The offset nature of the ball also requires intense stabilization, getting every fiber in your muscles to fire, much like in contact sports. The workout will push both cardio and power systems to the limit, while offering an active warmup and yoga cooldown to help keep you loose and healthy.
| History of the Mace |
Mace training dates back all the way to 13th century Persia, where the elite warriors and wrestlers of the day would train with the heavy Gada to condition their muscles for battle. The first Gada used in training were nothing more than stone attached to a bamboo staff, however when made for battle, the Gada were made often made of iron or bronze. Mace training continued into modern day India, where it began to trickle down into mainstream strongman training at the start of the 20th century. A recent resurgence in unconventional and functional training by elite athletes have put this ancient technique back on the forefront of cutting edge performance exercise.

I had major back surgery 5 months ago and have added the "Warrior Maker" to my recovery with a10lb mace & just moved up to a 15lb mace. This workout kicks my butt every time and has improved my core significantly. My intensity grows by the week with the mace and my steel clubs. Today I ordered the "Ultimate Steel Mace Workout" and will start it tomorrow (Monday). Thanks Aubrey, you're the man.

[@horatiofox]

Awesome! I hope your recovery went well. Where did you order the workout?

[@horatiofox]

I found it. I didn't see training on their website earlier.

[@carlosbustamante2055]

I want to try this. But also looks like I can work at construction and get paid while doing it🤣🤣

@@pandr3s this is what happened to me with warehouse work... like yeah great workout but nobody gives a F if you haven't recovered because it's your job and you gotta do it regardless which leads to overuse injuries... life is fun.

[@bonefiedrealdeal3640]

This is a nice warmup before my workout

[@Ten_Mil_Will]

This is an amazing workout! I have always lifted weights but kinda tailored my workouts towards my goals as a martial artist rather than just trying to build "show muscles". This workout DEFINITELY fills in some gaps left by traditional weight lifting. Thanks for sharing it!

[@izaakchater9165]

WHat gaps has it filled for martial arts? Do you feel stronger with grappling? Maybe you dont get sore as much or feel as injury prone? I train BJJ and Id like to tailor my other workouts towards it (especially while in lockdown) so if you could elaborate that would be awesome.

[@Ten_Mil_Will]

@@izaakchater9165 difficult to really pinpoint but I feel stronger in ways that matter more. In most of my weight lifting, I could exert decent amounts of force BUT it was while my body was braced in a particular position, isolating the muscle itself. Mace training, like loop style power bands (which i also use) help me get used to exerting large amounts of force from self braced positions. EVERYTHING has to work together to balance and exert. To see if it is for you, try this workout with a 12# (not standard weight) sledge hammer. I also find muscles that were previously not worked BUT you might not because I used to train BJJ and found it forces you to use muscles that get skipped over in lifting. So while you might not benefit from the "finding hidden muscle" aspect of it, you will probably still like how it forces you to control your positioning and balance under load.

[@izaakchater9165]

Thanks for replying that's awesome insight and I hear you when you talk about standard weights. 💪

great workout.....ive added 2 other workouts with this.....ive upped my weight as well .....although it's taken 7 months , I'm able to do a warm up with 15lbs with 12 reps on each exercise , and 20lbs of 20 reps and 25lbs of 20 reps.....its no joke....but love the workouts

[@LonJangstone]

Mines on the way. Excited! Went for 6kg to start

[@basedlawyer5147]

I'm a 39 year old dad at 283lbs, I just finished this workout with a 16lbs sledgehammer. If I can do it, you have no excuse NOT to get after it. I'm determined to get back in shape and I know how hard this can be. Get yourself up and try this, even if it's with a lighter weight. It feels amazing to move my body in this way again. If you're into grappling, this workout is also pretty awesome. I'm getting back into BJJ and these movements are super useful for standing and throwing.

[@chauncey5962]

I was hoping someone would remind people that a sledgehammer has a similar weight balance to it. When I was 18 I would beat a steel blank until my hands had blisters for a workout. Don’t know how much it weighed but it was all steel (heavy bastard). Til a couple years ago, I’d never even heard of such a thing like this (outside of like mid evil fighting or something) still pretty cool tho

[@IgnizAnima]

Did this work for you in the end?

[@judahmetz8254]

Been a big weight lifter for about 12 years. 28 years old and my back and knees feel like they’re 60. Never incorporated any mobility training or cardio in my training regrettably..lol Hoping this can help rejuvenate me somewhat and hit some areas I’ve neglected for years. On top of a new yoga program and calisthenics routine too!

[@gunslinger1108]

Just built a loadable head mace using 2" and 1" iron pipe. Weighs about 10lbs but can fill the head for more weight later, didn't know if I wasn't to shell out the cash for a mace so I made this to try out with. Will be buying one later just because how cool they look. Just finished the work out this morning. Need to do an alternate to the sword swing, knees cannot handle bending that much yet. Added a set of 360 clockwise and counter clockwise and a set of bicep curls.

This is especially great after a regular weight lifting session. Far more effective than jogging (in terms of burning calories, fat, and cardiovascular endurance without the shock on the legs).

[@kingster911]

That's what I wanna hear! I'm trying to get into working out again. I lost 30 lbs a couple summers back by just working out for a little bit at home in the morning and eating better. I've gained some weight back now and have been lazing about. I find most workouts monotonous and don't want to join a gym but have been very intrigued by this mace. I need to get one! I'm unsure what weight to get though.

[@fitnessdevolution]

I love to see people using and promoting the mace. Nothing wrong with the movements shown here, but I would love to see at least some mention of traditional mace SWINGING. Is it too risky for most folks to try?

[@Wolkowinski]

Hey Dave, I don't really think that they have any idea or genuine interest in the source.

[@fitnessdevolution]

Perhaps not, Paul, but I'm happy to point and push them in the right direction. Nothing to lose, everything to gain as I see it. Even if the onnit folks never get it, there will be someone, like you or me that sees this, reads our comments, and the light bulb goes on in their head. I'm fine with that.

[@vyvial]

They just don't know.

[@Wolkowinski]

Agreed Dave, they are too lazy to find out the correct movements and learn how to do them, and too busy trying to showing exercises you can do with other equipment.

[@nagi66]

+Fitness Devolution I Love the culture and history of mace training, currently have a 2lb jori or mace club that im using for mobility training in my rotatory cuff muscles. absolutely love it and it has certainly peaked an inner desire to learn more of its origin. This has set me on a cool journey where i have found new ancients to look up to such as gama the wrestler. Love this kinda stuff and will definitely incorporate the ancient knowledge to my regimen :3

I made the mistake of buying a 35 pound mace from Scientific Wrestling first. I can handle a 35 pound kettlebell pretty well, so I thought a 35 pound mace should be fine. Why start lower? I forgot about the difference having the weight further from my body would make. Rookie mistake. So I got the 15 pounder from Onnit and it serves me QUITE well. The most fun I've had in forever. I'll work up to the other one eventually, now I have a goal. :)

Start with the 10 pounder...Your ego will naturally fight against that, but I've seen that "pussy" 10lbs qucikly humble fit and strong people 😅 It's a different beast - think kettlebell on the end of a broom stick. 7lb you'll outgrow pretty quick, 15lb is too much for the learning curve - it's possible, but you'll learn the absolute fundamentals better on a 10 pounder.
