Heavy Club SIX

Description

Welcome to Heavy Club SIX. The Six Week Workout Program for the Heavy Club aka mugdar, clubbell, or karlakattai. This course is the key stepping stone for anyone who has gone through Heavy Club 101 and wants to learn more.

About Heavy Club SIX.

In six weeks you’re going expand your knowledge, skill, and physical capability using a heavy club. Swinging a heavy club from hand to hand is complex, and therefore we’ve only used two hands so far. That’s going to change in Heavy Club SIX. This course will make you able to perform the movements in a safe way and will create a solid foundation for you to improve in complexity. Taking the time with each lesson will ensure the most benefit.

Heavy Club SIX will take you through six weeks/stages each with three workouts, which all work toward a final flow. Every week we will increase the complexity and this will involve new exercises, combinations, and flows. Through the course, you’ll build your skill with a heavy club and work up to swinging with a single arm, pivots, and complex swings, presses and pulls.

Benefits.

Heavy Club SIX will greatly improve your ability to swing a club. It will build up coordination and skill in combination with the endurance to swing, press and pull a heavy club technically correct and for a long time. Furthermore, it will teach you how to combine swings, pulls, presses, lunges, and pivots into movement patterns (flows). What makes the six-week course unique is that you’ll get the added benefit of spending a lot of time with a heavy club in your practice. The workouts are elaborate and intense and will challenge you. As you go through the course you’ll gain a deeper understanding of mobility and posture while performing static and dynamic exercises. The unique part about heavy club is its relative short size. This allows for a lot more static movements compared to a mace, but it still amazing for swings.

Swinging a Heavy Club is very different compared to a machine lift in the gym and will challenge your entire body to function properly.  This course will get you there step by step, without the risk of rushing through things too quickly and getting injured. You will also learn a unique tempo system that will add a new edge to your training routine.

Difficulty.

This six-week workout program is labeled intermediate as it quickly dives deep into complex variations and flows. We highly recommend going through Heavy Club 101 first as you’ll gain the right amount of knowledge and experience with a heavy club to progress through this course fluidly. The course does not require any pre-knowledge, however, it is a stand-alone course. If you’re more experienced with a heavy club, this course will give you the right amount of complexity to progress in your journey of skill progression.

You will also learn how to combine movements through transitions on an intermediate level. This means that throughout the weeks, the complexity will increase quite quickly. The course will challenge you, no matter how experienced you are. You will learn movements that you’ve never learned before, in a context in which you’ve never seen them before. This a unique chance and opportunity to enjoy the wonderful experience of skill mastery.

Length.

SIX says it all, six weeks or stages is what it should take minimally to go through this course. However, from other six-week courses, we know that some participants spend half a year on the course to master the material. It’s not easy material, so it will take a lot of repetition to master. Think of the program as six stages on which you can come back with different weighted/shaped clubs every time and learn something new.

Requirements.

All you need is a heavy club usually sold as a mugdar, clubbell, steel club, or karlakattai and the internet to access and learn from this course. We would recommend wooden or steel clubs with a weight of 3-6kg. Learning a new skill always works better with a lighter weight.
