How To Perform Steel Club Mills - AKA Clubbell Milling
O.k, guys… today I’m going to break down the steel club mill in as much detail as I can because I know when I first started clubbell training finding information on how to perform this exercise properly was tough.
Steel club mills is a fundamental clubbell exercise and one of the most important when it comes to club training.
Just as the swing is to the kettlebell, if you get good at the swing then you can perform all of the other ballistic movements such as the high pull, clean and snatch.
With the mace you’ll want to get good at the 360 so you perform the other macebell swinging movements.
And… So it is with the club, get good at milling and you’ll get good at all the other circular shoulder strength movements.

This is the only video i've seen explain the elbow movement. Critical piece of information many leave out. Amazing information.

Ye - the elbow circles are so important. Thanks for watching!
You are such an amazing instructor! Thanks for breaking the movements down and showing how each part functions. Your demos are great and after watching you a couple of times I’m confident to try it on my own. Well done and thanks!

Thank you for the kind words, it's much appreciated! Glad this video was helpful 👊
I find it interesting how working with steel like this produces a different physique
Hey Dangerously Fit, big thanks for the work you do for us. I just rediscovered numb parts of my body, especially from side to side, because of this video. Feels like I can move with more aliveness and joy. I watched more than one part more than one time, because rewatching your stuff is so valuable. Your movements and explanations are useful and to the point and everyone can tell that you REALLY want to support the viewer to watch, listen, move and learn. There is so much effort put into the movement practice and structuring of the video. Cheers!

I bought my first sets of club bells 5's,10's,15's and 20's way back in 09 or 2010
Wow. That solved everything for me.

I saw you perform club mills 1 handed with 35 & 44lbs and in awe. I started using clubs (and maces) 3 years ago at 57 and was humbled. Now 60 use 15/20lbs clubs 1 hand & 25/35lbs 2 hands. Really opened up my shoulders & more rotational power & grip strength of course. Most gym folks are missing out on "true" strength...

Nice work! True, my shoulders have never been so strong. I can overhead press heavier now (at 45) than when I was in my twenties doing bodybuilding exercises.

2 days ago i bought a macebell 6kg. Ive worked out with it 5 times since then. I woke up this morning and every muscle in my body is rock hard. Now i see this video and i can tell that i now need to buy clubs. This is an incredible exercise, and this man is a great instructor.... he would also excell at brazilian jiujitsu.

Thanks mate... draw a circle with the elbow in front of the shoulder
Great video, just curious, what should I be doing with my feet while doing the mill? I'm watching another channel and he has people keeps their feet pointed straight forward, shoulder width apart the whole time. Just curious what you do and how much you think it matters for training.
@dangerouslyfit

Yes, I prefer to keep my feet shoulder width apart with toes pointing forward. When you swing heavy weights I find it much better for rooting the feet into the floor and staying grounded.
Thanks for the explanation of elbow position and club angle for the single arm. Why do you use a technique that employs less of upper body rotation (side to side at the waist); I have been looking at Mark Wildman's instructions (for about a year and half) and have seen benefit to range of motion and employment of more of the body by following that technique. Especially the back. Just wondering.

Hi Muhaimeinul, your'e welcome - thanks for watching. Do you mean the thoracic rotation when casting and receiving the club... or charging my weight in the opposite direction to counter the weight when it's moving laterally?
@muhaimein
Жыл бұрын
@Dangerously Fit changing you weight opposite direction. The thoracic movement I can see in your explanation and it was helpful for me. I will try that tomorrow with lighter clubs, I do benefit from rotation around the spine, that has resolved a lot of my weakness in my back. I am an avid cyclist, and sometimes all cycling can leave the upper and mid back quite weak.

@@muhaimein Ah.. cool - ye it depends on the weight. The heavier the weight, the more you need to charge your weight in the opposite direction to own the centre. I think I'm only using a 12kg (26.5lb) club in this demonstration, whereas I normally train with a 20kg (45lb) club. I only shift my weight as much as I need to in order to own the centre (if that makes sense).

You should be ok with a 10lb for single arm exercises and 15lb for two handed exercises.
