Same I’ve had a problem with my shoulder dislocating after a stupid fight back in high school. After it never stopped coming out of socket and this has helped tremendously. It’s been over a year since my last issue.
Folks asking about specs or where to buy, look close to home. It's just a weight on a pole. I happened upon a similar activity years ago just by playing around with a sledgehammer.
Honestly that's not really great form. He can probably get away with it because he's a **cking beast but for normal people: When the mace/gada is head down behind your back your hands should touch the back of your neck or shirt. His hands are way too high and this puts excessive strain on the elbows. I'm sure he can deal with it. But maybe look at people who have taught mace for much longer like Mark Wildman or Rik Brown (Mr Maceman)
Nearly everything I know about mace I've learned from Wildman (and plenty on other subjects). That man's content is fantastic and then some. Summer Huntington has some great mace material as well.
They have a set of these at my gym and I’ve always been so intimidated to use them. I’m 42 and have had lingering shoulder problems since I was a teenager that have only gotten worse over time. The only thing that’s helped is a steady routine of pulling exercises, that is until recently when I started incorporating a warm up routine of rotator cuff exercises prior to any upper body workout and THAT had made a huge difference. The positive impact of the rotator cuff exercises has me thinking that a steel mace routine would also go along away towards correcting muscle imbalances and hopefully would strengthen my shoulder joints without causing pain the way pressing exercises do.
dont go straight into this. work on strict rehab. i recommend lu xiaojun plate raises, rotator cuff work in the three planes and rear delt strengthening. then once your shoulder is ostensibly healed, test its limits SLOWLY. any damage you do at this tentative point will be very disruptive. but you'll get through it. source: injury on 160kg bench
I just got my first steel mace yesterday for Christmas. I could barely do a two handed swing I can’t even FATHOM doing a single. 😅 let’s see how long it’ll take me to progress🤞
Started doing these three years ago. And then stopped for a few months and started again. Massive decreases in stability and shoulder mobility when I stoped
@@bartimaeu1example: 10kg gada - all the weight is in the concrete at the end of the bamboo stick. 10kg steel mace - the weight is more distributed throughout the steel of the body and the bell. The 10kg gada will feel heavier.
Let’s not use ‘Squat Universities’ content and not give him credit..
Didn't even notice it untill I read this comment
You’re a warrior for justice
Loll the original from squat university was literally the next short
Also discuss,, ANCIENT cardio yoga ---

Thanks for sharing this, I've bought one after finding this and used it.. already fixing my rounded shoulders! Thank you!
Did u build round shoulders with mace
Awesome! I found it helped out my posture too

also used in ancient egypt, akkad, aram, canaan and arabia
i knew i recognised that voice @squatuniversity
I finally realized I have a skinny bar with some 10 lb plates. Been doing these and these feel amazing on the shoulders
Wonderful video! Thank you!

Yeah, his form is off and missing the mobility gians

@@ruutjormun2262 thank you for the advice. I think that sounds like a smart approach.
I’d be afraid I’d take myself out with that thing lol
I’ve started doing this with a 8 pound splitting axe, no casualties yet.
Nah, usually skims your bum on these kind of swings
Sikh soldiers 🔥

What’s the weight and length of bar?

Did you have any prior shoulder problems before you started doing these?
It was called "gadda" in ancient times
You gadda watch the video again because he mentions it was called gadda back in the day
@@giggityeffyouwhat if i mentioned it again
Actually is NOT indian is Davidrian or Aryan which precedes India
Where can I get the bar from?
Hello
How long is the bar?
It’s from Persia . Then to India. Get it right.
Thanks for stealing content👍
I'm guessing that's not the voice of the guy with the beard.
It’s squat University that’s the voice and the video
Interesante 🤔
Where do you get this mace from
Onnit, setforset, Wolverson, strength shop uk, gravity fitness or seek out a local fabricator
Loll the original from "squat university" was literally the next short, give credit! Don't blatantly steal!
Why would I listen to you teach me about how he teaches? How about I just go watch his video instead of rewarding your content theft with a view?
Hello! It is a very interesting device. I would like to buy it. Can you help me to find it?
Look up steel training Mace
I hit my arse almost every time I swing. I've tried it all. Doesn't seem to work for me.
Start with the mace closer to your body on the front and/or try keeping your head up and back in a tall posture.
A gada and a macebell are slightly different, a gada involves a stick and concrete, according to the top google search result.
What's the difference?

It's not anything close to the oldest strength training. But u just believe it ok
What is the oldest strength tool?
Lol what? Why even say that ok, you go ahead and think that ok, see it's dumb.
Title says "one of" tho
