***** All things Fitness *****

This might not be everyone's cuppa tea, but I picked up a pair of old 'indian clubs' at a garage sale, went online and found that these things were real popular here in the US 100 years ago. Groups of folks would exercise with 'em together - there's even some footage of KC schoolchildren on here. Here's an into: https://www.artofmanliness.com/healt...club-training/ Her'es the kc kids https://www.pinterest.com/pin/141441244520516765/ Let me point out that if you want to read up on this stuff, limit yourself to 'indian club swinging' not 'indian swingers clubs'. Whole nother ballgame. I've used a pair of framing hammers to do these moves, you could whittle your own clubs out of firewood if you wanted. They're for sale online, of course, but the garage sale relics I use suit me fine. I did pay up to get a mace to 'move up' in weight a bit - once again, a slege hammer might already be in the garage and will work fine. https://www.artofmanliness.com/healt...workout-video/ I've managed to lose about 95 lbs of 'stop smoking cigarettes' weight that I put on 25 years ago and these clubs and some dumb bells were about all I really used for workouts. I did load 20 lbs of split peas into my backpack, and started going for long walks around the parks here in JoCo to burn off lbs. Worked pretty well. And I'm still here. That has to count for something.
