>>76572685
Key word here:
Training.
>>
>>76572698
What am I looking at here?
>>
>>76573012
picking up oddly balanced very heavy objects. It differs from something like a barbell that is perfectly balanced.

The biggest gains are neuromuscular adaptations that you likely barely even feel while doing it. A large portion of the gains are coming from transverse plane movement, which is heavily underutilized in lifting. We primarily lift in the saggital plane and very few people train the frontal plane, and then even fewer train transverse plane.

These are kinesiology concepts if you want to learn more about it.
>>
>>76573042
Good point. Most people never think past sagittal plane work, so anything forcing stability in the transverse plane feels foreign but builds control fast. Odd objects basically force the body to recruit stabilizers you don’t hit with barbells. That neuromuscular carryover shows up in real-world strength way more than a clean, balanced lift does.
>>
>>76573042
What are the benefits of transverse plane movement?
>>
>>76573047
the better real world translation would be daily life, like bending over and twisting and living a heavy object in your shed.

If you train primarily in the saggital plane, all saggital plane muscles in that movement are going to be able to lift that weight, but your transverse plane muscles that keep you from snapping your shit aren't, so when you successfully lift it up with your saggital plane muscles, you then have to utilize your transverse muscles for stability, but they aren't trained and your spine snaps in half.
>>
>>76573052
it stabilizes every one of your ball joints and your spine, and allows these structures to accept oddly balanced weights.

It is far better for your body to do a suitcase carry than a farmer's carry, if you're looking at the biggest bang for your buck.

>>76572685
Are clubs like the new kettlebells?
>>
>>76573054
Precisely, that’s the disconnect between gym strength and functional resilience. Sagittal dominance creates prime mover strength, but without sufficient recruitment in the transverse plane you’re missing the stabilizing musculature that resists shear and torsional forces. Odd-object or rotational training essentially conditions those neuromuscular pathways so the spine and hips can handle asymmetrical loads without compensatory breakdown. That’s why it translates more directly to injury prevention in “real-world” movements than perfectly balanced barbell work.

>>
>>76573060
That's cool and all but that still doesn't answer my question, what's the function for? What's it good for? Ok sure stability, cool, stability for what? Better sports performance? Immense majority of athletes get most of their development from skill training, lifting weights and plyometrics, is it good for carrying objects like your sofa or your fridge if you're moving? Those objects are heavy so strength training will still have a higher carry over than something for stability.
A movement like that might have some benefits im not saying it doesn't but what are those benefits? What's it gonna make your more stable for?
>>
>>76573085

No. Kettlebells deal in thrusting/forward motion. Clubbells and Mace deal in the lateral plane of motion.

Pedantically, you CAN do roll and yaw with kettlebells (inside and outside cleans) and you CAN do pitch with clubs (swipes) but yes: generally kettlebells are for pitch/hinge and clubs are for yaw/rotation

>>
>>76573702
Muscle mass just does a lot for you.
Even if you like strength, bigger muscles give you more room to get stronger.
Bigger muscles help decrease general injuries.
You also just get to eat more since muscle mass requires more calories.
If you're keto/low-carb it's a cheat code because bigger muscles absorb more sugar for glycogen.
Helps mood and mentals.
Helps regulate hormones
that's why skinny bitches are always neurotic and muscle-mommies just like being mired.

>What's it gonna make your more stable for?
Nta but everything. The point isn't to replace standard strength training, but to move the joint under reasonable load through make all kinds of various and potentially awkward positions, this should in theory make it healthier and more stable at all times. This is good for both gym lifting and everyday life where you usually do movements at weird angles that are unlike the gym variants. And in general you should become limber/stretchier(?) which just feels good.
>>
>>76573066
Are they going mainstream now? They’ve been the staple lift in Iranian zurkhaane (strength houses) for hundreds if not thousands of years
>>
>>76572685
Just walk with heavy shit, do some farmers walks or go hiking with a heavy pack once in a while and it's probably all the function you need, same with mobility, maybe some stretches for your shoulders, knees or lower back so you dont end up couchridden in your old age and thats all the stretching you need, if you WANT to be a slender yoda dude sure, but the average person/trained lifter doesn't need anymore to keep their basic ''functional strength'' or mobility, and if you want to be the biggest purist, the ''true'' human form should be a skinny guy who can chuck spears and rocks really good so functional lifters should really be doing that if they wanna talk about how we should train
>>
>>76574253
>movements at weird angles that are unlike the gym variants
such as what retard? answer the fucking question. moving a fridge? no. sports? no. moving a couch? no. what the fuck is this shit good for. give just 3 examples of movements at weird angles you do in every day life that should be specifically trained for.

>moving a fridge?

>moving a couch?

Literally every movement you do irl is at a weird angle compared to a bench or a shoulder press. The point isn't to train *for* that one movement they do with the mace, but that said mace movement just trains the shoulder in a range of motion that prepares it quite well for other different positions, and there's different mace swings and shit to make sure you hit all the stabilizers and get good strength+mobility combo in the joint.

The same way swimming makes your shoulders feel good outside the pool and is used for both rehab and prehan even though you never actually do a swimming motion in other parts of life.
>>
>>76574391
Also I'm not the anon you had been talking with before you should stop being a and insulting random people online when they're trying to be helpful to you tyvm.
>>
>>76574670
what a load of shite. as the other anon said, strength training will have a far better carryover for moving large objects, and if you're training for a specific sport you just do skill training alongside strength training, just like every fucking real athlete in the world. any strong man will have no issue moving a fridge or a couch despite the fact he doesnt do your retarded exercises.

if you wanna do your faggy little bowling pin exercises go ahead. the rest of us are gonna do tried and true exercises that professional athletes do. dont come here bragging about your functional strength when you're just a faggot playing with a bowling pin.

>oh no, how will i ever be able to remove a tree stump, oh wait, i dont need to, because thats not a part of anyones fucking daily life.

face it, these are only the daily movements of a farmer, and if you are a farmer, you develop the strength needed to do this shit by farming, not by swinging shit around your head like a retard. your 'functional strength' that you claim is so essential is pointless for 99% of the population, and the 1% that actually might need it still dont need to do your hyper niche exercises.

i dont even do strength training much, i mostly focus on calisthenics, but im not such a retard to go around spouting this nonsense that strength training is somehow less functional than the dumbass shit you waste your time doing. the real strain of manual labour is 99% just moving heavy shit from one place to another, and things like deadlifts, squats, and ohp are by far the most effective way to train for that.

Don't forget to strengthen your tendons. The bowling pins/kettlebells/strongman lifts are worth adding in for a small percent of your program even if you don't compete in anything that uses them. If you are trying to be really athletic or functional, the more proficient you are at a variety of movements the better. The idea that you can get really good at one lift and it will automatically make you really good at something else (the transfer effect) is kind of a meme. Crossfit, conjugate, gymnastics, good S&C programs all have the right idea.
>>
>>76572685
useless for what you moron, nobody who trains, trains for the purpose of "useful muscles", it's all for a cosmetic change, health - because muscles are linked to longevity or compettive in the sphere the person choses to compete in.

All kidding aside it's great for middle age and you really need to work strength endurance and soft tissue integrity.

Comp weight for the zurkhaneh clubs is 16kg. That said the best tendon benefits are seen in the 6-8kg range for long times . I use my 13s for intensity blocks and my 10s and 7.5s for volume blocks

Functional is king. I constantly seek new disadvantageous ways to lift and I would say I got quite good at it. Nowadays I can move the heaviest packed top Samsonite one-handed with ease. I periodically go mog normies by helping them carry their pathetic suitcases on stairs. I do not care who they are, but old women and women with pathetic boyfriends (more like GIRLfriends haha) are my prime targets. The former is always very loud in their gratitude, leading to the maximum embarrassment of surrounding "men". To the latter I usually make a snide remark and leave without further explanation, like "well at least the suitcase didn't get wet".

There is no "rest of us". There's me, you, and other people, some of which will do pure strength training, and some of which will use maces and clubs, with varying degrees of overlap. You're free to join whichever camp you want, and to keep conflating me with the op lol.

But once again it's a similar principle to swimming (and in some wayvarious rotator cuff and similar exercises like face pulls, rear delt flies, shoulder dislocates etc). One swim pull is little.resistamce, yet doing it for a longer time is a good workout that can do wonders for shoulder health.

Also there's many different ways to do mace/club work; you can get ones that are very heavy and if you can learn to swing that stuff around you're def gonna be strong as fuck. Picrel., a "macebell"

>>76575825
As with any rotation movement (punching, throwing, flipping) it starts with the hips and the arms are a finisher. The pants are a must though.

All of these motions that rely on momentum rather than muscles seem like bullshit designed to injure but not strengthen.
>>
>>76576622
>that rely on momentum
They don't rely on momentum thoughbeit because you need to exert force to redirect the arc. Things want to move in a straight line and you need to exert centripetal acceleration to change the straight line to an arc. As for
>designed to injure
it distracts the joint similar to a dead hang and the reason many people (myself included) get into it is to rehab shoulder and elbow injuries from other weight training. We're terrestrial animals running on jury-rigged arboreal hardware and our shoulders don't handle compression very well

You’re correct about off balance and irregular lifts but you’re better off doing farmers walks or sandbag carries or something like that. Same concept, way way less risk of joint damage, and carrying heavy shit is very practical. Spinning around giant bowling pins is not.

I understand you're being sarcastic but some people do that. They said, if someone absolutely held a gun to your head and said "pick one and only one implement for the rest of your life or I'll shoot you in the butt" it's probably a safer bet to pick an adjustable club over an adjustable kettle or dumbbell since you can do all the uniplanar (press, row, etc) and pitch/hinge (swipes and cleans) with a club, but it's more difficult to do the rotational movements with a kettle or dumbbell. You can - jeets call it a rumali curl (https://youtube.com/shorts/LAKvbR2KidA?feature=shared) - but it's easier to clip yourself with it.
Since no one is holding a gun to anyone's head, I prefer a multi modality approach

Persian clubs are cool, but they aren't a show of strength. It's just hand skill like juggling. Takes practice but isn't in the same league as strength sports. All of these guys were strong enough to hold them up, they just don't have the practice to balance and swim them around. This thread is dumb

At first read I agree with you. But then you see someone like Martinis Licis address with with such humility.

Not gonna judge these til I can swing a few heavy sets myself. Where the fuck do you find them tho

>>76577948
From what I've seen of his videos Licis is just enjoying all kinds of different strength sports nowadays, not saying one is better than any other, just different expressions, personally I'm really enjoying this wave of content where two retired athletes attempt each other's sports and see what carries over

I've only found them online, they're usually more expensive than kettlebells though but you can also make your own, there's tutorials on that

you get strong in a limit range of movements and not all of that strength necessarily carries over
For example, if you bench when do you ever actually do anything that even uses your chest as a primary mover, let alone completely isolates you in laying flat on the ground and push up against something trying to crush you. Posterior chain stuff like squats and deadlifts can transfer a lot more but even still, nothing you're picking up will be comparable to a barbell in terms of weight balance and grip.
This isn't to say that jeet clubs are actually any proof of strength (the trick is just using momentum and not hitting yourself so you barely train throwing strength at all) but regular compound exercises are rarely a good example of functional strength.
Contrarily, shit like farmer's walks/suitcase carries are great because its something that you will come across routinely in everyday life.

>>76572685
him waving these bowling pins is cheating. He creates momentum that makes it easier to control them than just keep them in place.
>>
>>76578787
The cyclical pendulum he's doing by shifting the weight from side to side is acting like a gyroscope stabilizing a spinning wheel. He's generating that gyroscopic force albeit with his hips and core va his arm. Is it cheating if you're still putting in the force production just more efficiently? IDK.
>>
>>76573608
You are correct. When “gym strong” guys struggle with something “functional” it’s because they aren’t used to the motions. After doing it a couple times they’ll be way better than somebody who is used to it but never lifts. This video isn’t functional either.

I’ll pass. At that point why not get a real reproduction mace? Yeah you’ll never hit anyone with it but at least those look cool and training is “practical”. Or buy a fucking sledgehammer for half the price that does the same thing and you have a sledgehammer.

Why not do the regular version of those? Barbells or dumbbells will give better results.

Yes when his goal is to look stronger and he isn’t. The force is from momentum of the clubs, not by him. I can “generate” more force by dropping my OHP from extension onto the ground but that’s a pretty shitty lift. People make fun of crossfit pull ups for a reason. Swinging your body, or in this case swinging clubs, might get the result but it’s not a show of strength and it limits muscle growth. You’re supposed to be pushing what your body can do, that’s how you get stronger.

Kek I guess I did. Didn’t mean to but yeah these are pointless.
>>
>>76579053
For hypertrophy yeah but it's actually pretty good at teaching how to transfer force along the anterior chain (like a reverse dumbbell or kettlebell snatch) and does have athletic value. Just fuck all for size
>>
>>76579163
It does fuck all for strength too. It’s better than nothing obviously, but the part that helps is the lifting up of the ball not tossing it down. Other than maybe for loosing up no serious athlete is going to do these.

Real world example. Yesterday I was doing some landscaping in my yard and carried 30 bags of rock up a small hill. Putting the bag on my shoulder and walking up the hill takes effort. Tossing the bag off my shoulder requires basically none.

Slamming it with as much force as possible would engage the same and muscles and hip flexors as splitting a log. It's more an endurance thing since those are done for high reps (like splitting logs)
>>
>>76572685
What muscle does that train?
>>
>>76579377
>would engage the same and muscles and hip flexors as splitting a log.
Which again, is a shitty way to strengthen your back or hip flexors. There are far better exercises
>it's more an endurance thing
Which proves what I just said. There’s also way better exercises for endurance and cardiovascular growth.

Meme shit like medicine ball slams, weighted axes, hitting tires with sledgehammers, etc are ways to trick idiots into buying stuff they don’t need for a subpar exercise. Being tired doesn’t equal good muscle growth.

>>76572685
it's just technique at using those jeet clubs. For ex he holds them still with arm fully extended while Larry manages to hold them for a moment even with semiflexed elbows
>>
>>76579561
There's even more little tricks that he's using. You're supposed to keep your pinkie under the pommel and that helps stabilize it

Idk seems like a good price to me for a hunk of metal that I can keep swinging around forever, but if you can get it in a different form that suits you the that is great also. I'm just talking about swinging heavy things in general.

Or since you're using a jeet tool anyway do like the jeets do.
Make your own from a length of bamboo and some concrete and a terracotta pot or whatever else you have laying around for a mold.
