- The Mace is an ancient melee weapon from antiquity that is a fantastic exercise and mobility too in the present time.
Rehab your shoulder or increase shoulder mobility through the use of the Steel Mace.
Using this tool can increase your shoulder stability or strength depending on the movements and weight of the steel mace.

I love how ominous this title is
I love your short, to-the-point, evidence based videos, and your calm and relaxing delivery.
No showy nonsense, no irrelevant rambling, just high-quality information. I love it!
I recently got injured in the gym, and it was a wake-up call that I can't just brute force my training anymore like I could at 21. I need to get smarter about how I train, and am on a quest to alleviate the chronic pain I've been in for so long.
This is one of the best channels I've found, and I think it will be the solution,.over time, to all that chronic pain from years of mumisuse and abuse on my body.
Thank you!
Thank you!
I took the "hard" way when I was younger, too. Chronic injury forced me to take a different approach.
@Grown and Healthy I've just hit that point myself. (The Army lifestyle sure as hell hasn't helped)
It's time to get smart, or I'm going to be completely broken off by the time I'm 35.
ayy. this dude out here repping proper walking and mace training. much respect for what you're doing.
Excellent demonstrations. Great visual examples and commentary.
Love the vids, man - I can't believe you don't have more subs! Question: Have you thought about getting a Bluetooth lapel mic? They're dirt cheap and it would really help with the audio. You give AMAZING info, but it can be hard to hear in your outdoor vids sometimes. No criticism, just trying to help 😁👍🏼 Keep it up!
Thanks for watching! This was an older video, i have gotten a lapel mic, since this.
@@GrownandHealthy Wow... I didn't even look at the date lol Good stuff - keep it up!
Exercise one: I sure hope you comment on the way you arch your back during the exercise. There may be good reason for that. I noticed because the exercise teachers I have had caution us against that, bring your belly towards your spine, rxtend your tailbone, or if it works for you, pull your tailbone under to flatten your back.
I have lack of arch now.but maybe because I sit too much.
That last move was nice I’m definitely gonna give that a go tomorrow!
Yes, give it a try and let me know.
Grown and Healthy feels awesome. I’ve always been into power lifting and sort of shifted over to kettlebells but even that’s starting to feel a little hard on my body. I got my hands on a few clubs and maces and the movements feel way more fluid. So my question is, is it possible to slim down and continue to build strength/muscle exclusively with clubs and maces?
@@I___Love___U Great! You can definitely slim down withem (faster, if you add jump rope), but the level of hypertrophy and strength will be limited (not enough Stimuli).
You have a lot of great insights
Thank you!
AMAZING video as always brother, however the audio seems abit... low, have you thought of using a radio mic, they have bluetooth ones that sink up quite well and wont break the bank. as always love the videos. short and concise with a wealth of information. let me know how i can help your channel grow.
thank you so much very inspiration
Good work. Keep the vids coming! Maybe we can collaborate!
Chopping wood and lacrosse are some other alternatives
Great info. Thanks.
How about using the tools at home? A sledge hammer for example?
Sure, that is how I started...
But beware of the head...it is easier to cope when you hit yourself with a smooth round ball, than a sharp edge.
Coach Vaughn has a good video on mace vs sledge hammer and why hammers are not the same. Use a mace for mace work.
Subscribed, great video. Going to get into mace training. What would be a good weight to begin with? Some lifting background discipline
10lbs is a good start.
When it becomes easy for two hand swings, then transition to one handed, before raising the weight
I know you’re not a doctor but I’m curious of your input. Do you think it’s safe for shoulders that have had surgery on them years ago?
If you have been cleared for activity by your doctor, then you should be able to use this..try a stick first and then explore more weight.
Is a specific grip not required for 360 pendulums? You don’t change grips sometimes and I wondered if that would cause injuries since you said ‘change grip’ at one point.
Based
On what?
Just found your channel. I was diagnosed with bilateral shoulder impingement, would this exercise be good to help?
Think an 8 lb sledge hammer would work?
...did you try the 8 pound sledge hammer? Report back please.
Looks like I could do that with a sledgehammer too. What do you think?
I have used a sledgehammer, slamming a tire...but the angled edges make it tricky for a full rotation behind you.
But it is doable.
What normally available gym equipment could be used as a substitute for this? Thanks 🙏🙂
There is nothing comparable, but the dynamics are closer to a kettlebell.
@@GrownandHealthy oh ok. How about a small barbell?
What weight would you recommend starting with? And where did you buy the mace?
I would recommend 10lb Mace to start with. And I bought it from Amazon . Thanks for watching.
@@GrownandHealthy With those shoes you can put a link for the mace also in the description. I mean don't send your money to amazon, affiliate bro. Thanks !
If u don't want to use that much weight use a wooden bokken sword , loosens shoulders 🗡️
👍🏽👍🏽
this is WAAAAAAAY too heavy. start with 7lbs and only go to 10lbs after a few months where you feel confident. no one has any business using 20lb maces for casual swinging.
also swing with your core and your body, this is not an isolated workout as this video shows. his form is very typical of modern isolated weight training, which is the opposite of the mace. he is using this beautiful instrument incorrectly.
He is using it for shoulders. that is why he is not swinging it with his core and body. Also, he says not to start with 20 pounds.
Where did you get the mace? I want to try this!
+Saint Nicholas Thanks for watching. I bought them online at amazon, from a company called inclinefit, I'll put a link in the description.
