It seems to have given me an edge in shedding some weight, down about 1.5 lbs/week over the past three weeks so far. Remember that no weight loss supplements are a silver bullet. You should use this in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise if you want the best results.
I use this a lot, though the heavier it goes the more you tend feel it in the chest/shoulders, which is normal since the larger muscles kick in. To focus this on triceps (and away from shoulders) is a matter of not dropping elbows below the sides - as Blakely showed in his J.M. press, though in that the elbows are much higher. Once they drop pretty much the first 3rd of the concentric is all chest, then the shoulders and the last 3rd going to lockout is more triceps. As a powerlifting accessory I always did C.G. bench as a floor press (sometimes on a pad) and this made it much more triceps-focused. I'm not trying to contradict you, just outlining my own experience with it.
@@SETFORSET just ordered one. Will follow your instructions ;) I bet there are plenty of ways to incorporate some leg training too with this stick.. what an underrated tool
Great vid. Im a 35 year old male, 180lbs,and looking to get my first mace to improve shoulder strength and flexibility. What would you recommend as a good weight for my first mace? Thanks
Thanks a lot for this video and the others. I've just assembled my own adjustable mace and have been looking for videos about fine workout programs with a mace. Will try working out like this.
First, I think a little punctuation would help you out big time. Second, this isn't about maxing weight out. It's for functional movement. Think lifting grocery bags off the ground (deadlift) then putting them on the counter (curl).
Don't let the weight of the mace control you, you have to be in control of where it is. Don't just let fall, keep it in the exact spot you want it to be in.
@@DilinarTanel You know how your brace your core when you do a squat? Think similar to that but with holding the mace. You want to keep everything tight but not excessively so.
