Thyny San hey my friend! That is awesome feedback. Thank you very much! 👊🙏

I have been watching every mace video I can find on youtube and this has been the most helpful one so far.

We in India have been doing the workout with mace , though they are made up of wood . This is the traditional workout in India .

Copied from Indian mythology.

I have wrestled for almost my entire life. I love history and especially the history of wrestling. Like 15 years ago I was reading about the best kushti wrestler ever from India, The Great Gama, he did a ton of Hindu pushups, deep knee bends (a different variation of squats) in addition to using traditional wrestler exercises like mace swinging. I saw they made them from a large branch, concrete and a clay pot. I made one out of a old small basketball and a shovel handle and it works fucking awesome. Been using it ever since. Awesome for grip, core strength and even striking. Now they are bring made out of steel and look really cool. I like how you do non traditional training and think outside the box.

It's Indian mace aka gada ..this weapon is used by Lord hanuman ... This weapon is the symbol of strength and power and only yield by strong physic mans

I've watch 187 mace videos, this is the first one that gives good information and tips. Those other 187 repeat the same shit over and over and over. Thank you OG's.

This was very helpful! Thanks for sharing the basics so clearly.

Wow, just bought a mace, and was struggling with my 360 form until I found this video. Thanks for breaking down the technique so well.

Excellent. These Tips made a difference in my game . Subscribed

Good tips. Found most of those out myself when starting to do these. It's basically physics. Don't focus on the size and location of the weight, but on the flow of the movement and the control. Let the mass work for you, not against you.

Yes. If we focus on the flow and the control, we can actually feel and then, understand which muscles are working.

“hands go the other way…” - ah-ha: the ah-ha moment that straightens everything out! And this, from an unexpected source - fortunately, James, I have been into your band vids so this popped up at just the right time - thanks so much!

Great video, this is very helpful

15 pounds is no joke after swinging it around for 45 mins to an hour. You definitely feel it, even if you're a gym rat. I'm about to move up to 20 or 25 pounds, and I'm sure it's going to be a challenge for at least a year of regular use. It makes for a great workout, especially if you integrate other exercises like lunges, squats, pull ups and push ups for a good hour.

LOL, I found a 36" industrial tent spike on the sidewalk. First i thought, this is dangerous; then I realized, this is serious. It weighs 8lbs. I took it cuz I knew I could use it in some fitness form. I started trying Kali like drills, and had fun but needed more. Then I found about steel maces and those Persian thingys and was able to learn better movements. Now, i was able to fit a 5lbs plate on the end (so, 13lbs total) and WOW!

Amazing information! TY

Very good video..thank you. Got a mace yesterday and now got addicted to it

Nice to see the rubber band man acknowledge the value of other alternative workout routines 👍

That's a nice mace. The whole mace exercise thing originated in India and they've been doing this for centuries but they use a mace made from iron. It's pretty effective for strengthing grip, shoulders, rotator cuffs, forearms.

That’s a cool mace. It is nice to be able to increase the weight as you get more proficient

hi James with the bands v weights; traditionally with weights you would refer to progression based on "weight amount". With bands, is progression based on just the feel of resistance? e.g you use a thick green band, is that equivalent to a 30kg dumbbell or it's a different mindset?

What type/brand of gloves are you guys using?

I agree about the weight. 15lbs feels like 50 for sure. That being said, using too light of a mace will cause me to “muscle” the movement and doesn’t look or feel smooth. Bottom line, this is a lot harder than it looks… 😳 thanks for sharing and the great angles of the demo..!! Edit: Sub’d

You can take sandwiches with you. I guess masks and hand sanitizer too. You could literally put anything you like like a bluetooth speaker or anything else you might want during a workout even protein power if you like. You could ask the community what are the disadvantages if you like also.

When doing 360s I'm always worried the mace will slam into the side of my hips. Am I doing something wrong?

greenranger2482 hey my friend. I don’t like using handles with bands as I prefer to grab the band directly, as it allows me to adjust my grip position on the band to either shorten or lengthen it, in order to adjust the resistance level (linear variable resistance).
