Heavy Club is a practice based on the ancient practice of the mugdar and karlakattai in India. The modernised part of the practice adds the hips and the legs to this practice. The path starts with two hands on one club and evolves to swinging with a single arm. Because of the shorter length, the heavy club is great for stability and strength exercises surrounding the shoulder. Recommended starting weight: 5-6kg. Usually sold as: Clubbell, Steel Club, Mugdar, Karlakattai, or Bulava.
Benefits
The main thing that distinguishes the Heavy Club from other categories is the fact that it’s heavy, but short. This allows for more static exercises like presses and pulls, which are great for strength and stability. The fact that it’s only one club makes it a very approachable practice with (initially) less complexity than the other categories. Heavy Club works the grip and arm strength plus it adds a lot of lower body work.
