This stuff is amazing. I was in constant shoulder, knee and back pain, all this from playing tennis and hockey. Heavy steel clubs and kettle bells fixed all my ailments within a few months. It is not in the pharmaceutical industry's best interest to let us know about this.

I've recently started clubs. The level of details you mention for execution of a move are so so great. It feels like joints are getting stronger and movements are easier and fluid. Thanks so much

This is awesome Mark. And probably one of your most important, functional strength exercise videos. Thank you!!

Wow. I’ve listened to every one of your explanations on KZread of this training. Each time I learn new layers and details. Thank you for this brilliant instruction.

Marc, your content is amazing. Strictly speaking, you're spearheading technique based instruction! Bravo!

Awesome detailed explanation, thanks!

It’s amazing what club work has done for my shoulder mobility and strength. I train in BJJ and a lot of my training partners have commented on how much they have to crank kimuras or Americana before the pain threshold is reached and I have to tap.They must think I’m being a hard-ass or something 😂 but I’m convinced it’s the club work that has allowed my shoulders to withstand the crank and be flexible enough so that I don’t feel pain for a while.

Just the basics of heavy club swinging and kettlebell lifting, have drastic improvements on all grappling arts. There are specific movements to improve the resistance even further. I should probably make videos on that with Will Safford of order and progress.

top level coaching. thanks

Such fantastic instruction on something that would legitimately make a MASSIVE positive difference to the vast majority of people's health and fitness

Thanks, Mark. ❤

Well-said, Mark. Thanks

Thank you for your great work. Your explanation are perfect. Teachers and profesors should learn from you, how to explain things ina logical and consistent way. God bless you.

love the details. core activation is something I still struggle with. bands around the feet help... Also, recently I upped the weight for my clubs as well as my Adex Mace. held off a bit to make sure I was ready. Seeing lots of gains and no injury ! Looking forward to adding this one.

Best trainer on the web and best youtube channel.

Nice vid wildman!! 👍

Yes, coach.

This is excellent mark! I’m going slow and repeatedly re-watching the video , excellent explanation but there’s a lot to take in. I think this is just what the doctor ordered. I’m an old baseball player so I repeatedly use one side of my body and now at 65 years old. Have some weakness on my left side of my body and lower back pain, but I think this will be the RX. Thank you very much.

Excellent video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great video Mark. Really liked 'Heavy clubs make you honest'

Great vid Mark, as always. Going to incorporate this into my Heavy Club Routine. BTW: What's with that Tonka Toy Ford? Where's the Chevy Blazer? That Badass Blazer could eat that Ford for Breakfast!!!

Whoops, oh no, I got arms and abs now! I love way Mark communicates and his instruction style.

Mark, you and Chip Conrad over at bodytribe are hands down by 2 favorite mace and club trainers. Would you consider hosting a class with him in Silverton, Colorado? He's game and I'm wondering are you...

Wildman doesn't sound Italian, but I can say, this dude Italian. Never seen someone speak with their hands so much haha. I say that with much admiration. I'm new to clubs but Mark's been virtually my only resource on this stuff and he coaches it so well.

Mark and Pavel have really impacted my life. Eliminated back and shoulder issues through months (and years) of kettle bell and heavy club training. Highly recommend for full body strength

For kettles, I prefer the traditional style as I like thicker handle. Combination of 100 swings and 20 getups on a daily basis helped me tremendously. As I built up technique, moved to single arm swings and then started cleans but I always go back to swings and get-ups as a foundational exercise.

@@MarkWildman Do you think i should be able to do this with a dumbbell (just half) or a kettlebell? Almost 20years ago i busted my shoulder adjusting the barbell while doing a bench press (yes, that’s dumb!) and never recovered. I’ve been told it is SLAP lesion.. i’ve been told it is the rotator cuff, and also the long portion of the bicep insertion on the shoulder.. The only thing i know is that i can no longer swim for more than a few mins.. and i must stick to closes kinetic chain exercises.. or my shoulder will stop me from working out for 6months.. Recently i decided i would no longer spend $ on physiotherapy. I would resort to KZread and other online resources and build the shoulder up, on my own. I’ve been doing Ido Portal’s shoulder band routine for a while, with good results.. and i believe i might be able to load it a bit more, from now on. Would you add or recommend anything else ? Thanks very much for the feedback. (subbed). ;) PS: needless to say that i can’t throw a baseball without pain. last time i did an ultrasound, on it, the doctor told me i had a few minor calcifications.. so i reckon that might be what is mostly, causing the pain.

I've been rinse/repeating your two hand mill/squat program and recently moved up to 35 lb. Seeing you do this with one hand is...something.

Youre thr best coach out there Mark. GOAT 🐐 GOAT!!

I use kettlebells for total body training but miss my guns of old. This week I did some curls and got a massive pump. It feels great although I'm incredibly sore 😂.

During rotational hip movements you have 2 options with your knees: one leg straight, sitting on back leg (let's call it Chinese style) or both knees bent, sitting on back leg (Japanese/Korean style). Which one you prefer and why?

@larsnystrom6698

8 ай бұрын

@pulltaboo He already told you in the video. He prefers both legs bent. I'm guessing about why. I think you are much better at twisting the body if you can use the legs too. Standing on just one leg, you can rotate around it. But not with any force. But I guess we are balacing with more load on one leg. And sitting back on just one leg is only the most extreme version of it. I take guidance from Wildman, but does what feels most right for me. I think it has to feel like a natural movement.

I got my adex adjustable club before the Wildman edition was available 😢

Mark, what is the movement of one’s scapula supposed to be in a pullover? Does it rise as when one presses overhead, or remain depressed?

This kind of stuff is right up my alley. Weightlifting is boring and my joints don't really like it, but I love baseball and golf, just smacking the shit out of something with a stick, and I even swing the bat around like I'm in a marching band at times, so I'm gonna have to get one of these or cork my bat with washers

Do you think a plan of single arm inside mills, single arm outside mills, and 2 hand mace 360s makes for a good minimalist approach for club training?

Wildmans way of explaning, and breaking up the movement, is very valuble. But I miss the next phase: making it a more fluently movement. For example, in inside and outside circles, twisting the body and pushing out becomes a single movement for me. I haven't seen Wildman doing that, so I'm left in the dark about what he would think about that. Oh well, I have to do what feels natural! But I would appreciate a video where he does a flow for us to see what he really does with those basic movements.

T1D and recurring frozen shoulders. If i stop mobility training, it comes back. I have a pair of 15 lbs coming tomorrow and I'm excited. Vanity question: can hypertrophy happen here with higher reps as with other weight training?

Clubs or mace? What’s better to strengthen core to fix lower back pain???

I've been doing club training with a 2 lb baseball bat and a single small barbell plate, progressing the load to 12 pounds. Tomorrow my first club should arrive, a 15 pounder. I'm a little excited, got to admit. Thanks Mark.

Hello guys out there ,any recommendations of clubs from Amazon..? Thanks in advance 😊

4:00 About engaging the core/glutes. Imagine your waist is a bowl filled with water. Try to position "your bowl" so that the water won't spill

Mr Wildman, Previous video of outside pullover you taught the shoulder externally rotating, trunk stayed straight facing forward. Now you are teaching it’s the trunk rotating? Please clarify.

I started doing these about a month ago.

where can I buy these clubs, and what is a good weight for normal person to start with?

When it comes to club training how heavy is heavy🤔 I’ve been training for almost 10 years now 2-3 of which with kettlebells. Is a 22lbs club okay for me ?

Adex is not the only game in town. Check out the Cadi Shorties and Cadi Club (it’s a bulava) from CK Maceworks.

The CK Maceworks setup with some basic, inexpensive one inch plates that you will own and be able to use however you like forever is INFINITELY more adaptable than the proprietary weights and $325 add-on kits from Adex, especially with 1 1/4 and 2 1/2 lb standard plates.
