Once again, I find I’ve been doing something wrong for the last year or so. Thanks Mark!

This is a gem of an explanation - the secret drill to properly yaw and properly and safely swing.

Mark, thank you. Your explanation to everything you show us is fantastic. Your the best.

Thanks Mark, excellent video. I just discovered club swinging recently from watching your videos. I bought 2 clubs this past week and have been using them a bit every day trying to figure them out so this is good timing.

Ha. Now I know why I can't go up in weight on my mills. Thumb to back - got it. Thanks.

Uhhh..not so easy as it seems and with two hands too. Thank You, Mark!

It helped me a ton to break it apart as: arm totally ‘collapses’/flexes so that my elbow CANNOT be the focus of rotation. The shoulder MUST roll through its socket to swing the club. That might be very confusing? But it helped me understand that very motion you just demonstrated

Hello Mark. This is the first time I have written and I have to thank you. I've been lucky to follow you for years, first to understand and improve some kettlebell workouts, but the great discovery for me has been the clubs. I have practiced wushu for many years and competed in combat, now I also teach circus acrobatics and I have always had problems with my shoulders (especially the right one as dominant). Three years ago I fractured the labrum in my right shoulder and since I started practising with the clubbells according to the progressions (and, especially, paying attention to the technique) that you propose, I have improved a lot. I had almost thrown in the towel and I am 42 years old. I am very grateful to you. As I see that you are in Spain (or so it seems to me) you have an invitation to lunch if you are still here or if you come back. A big hug buddy.

There’s one exception to humans only throwing. Monkeys throw poop. Just sayin😂😂😂 In all seriousness though, I’ve been loving these reshoots with the more in depth explanations. Fantastic work Mark!!!

This is a great lesson. Could be inserted early in club lessons. BTW: just ordered the add-on weights. I have 2 fat handle clubs, fat handle mace and arc. Would like them to be your new Wildman 35 mm, but already into $1200 in club swinging. I sleep so much better, stand better, function better. And the one or 2 times a year that I golf, swing golf clubs better.

Wow, this is excellent, exactly the issue I have with the mill. I have never been able to get my hand / thumb that far down on the backswings. After seeing this, I'm thinking to use this as a warmup. As always, thank you. Grazie.

great explanation, my practice continues

This is the video I have been waiting for 💪

Great instruction!

Wow, Mark this is filling a hole in my program. Thanks so much for giving this lesson.

Priceless. Thank you, Mark.

Makes perfect sense.

Wow! Glad I found this video on this specific drill. Been doing 2 handed heavy club training for 8 mos now and still not able to get thumb to shirt while training. Have followed a Wildman program and up to 20 lbs now and recently started feeling some shoulder discomfort with shield cast. Sounds like I really need this drill to get the proper ROM and continue to progress. Going to drop the weight a bit and try this drill. Also planning to pre-order the 1 hand program that was just announced. I’m sure there’s gonna be a lot more useful drills and form cues in that program. Mark, please let me know if there are any other specific drills I should work on. Love all the amazing content and coaching!!

Excellent teaching, many thanks

Great information, as always. Thank you, Mark 👍

Awesome video! Thanks, Mark.

Thank you, Mark, looking forward to starting my journey; this looks like the safest smartest place based on your experience and information. I have been following you for a while, started with kettlebells and I have had a lot of injuries, poor movement patterns, imbalances etc to sort out, and I am still doing that, but I can no longer resist the potential benefits of club swinging. Cheers - Canadian Army Veteran 🙏💪❣

Great video great exercise thanks for sharing

amazing content !! simple and brilliant !!!Thank you Mark

Thank you!!!

Ahhhhhhh!

Do any of you people know a good place to buy a club, here in Europe? Btw, love the video, great tips and tricks as always!

Hi Mark, could you please speak to your friends at Adex about UK/Europe distribution. I’d love to get into clubs but the cost of individual clubs of differing weights is crazy and I cannot find an available adjustable system here. At the moment I’m making do with a dumbbell handle with plates at one end, works ok for inside/outside circles but too cumbersome for shield cast and mills.

I have two less good shoulders ...

Too bad that most male fitness influencers won't ever be able to do this exercise. "The thumb needs to come all the way down to the shirt!" "Wait, what shirt?!" (Thanks, Mark for another absolutely great and concise video!🙏)

Since the video with Fabio I have refocused on my technique in clubs and kettlebells. In my club workouts (2H Mill/Squat) this has reduced my total reps and my total work capacity (reps x weight) has been cut about 20% at all three levels. BUT the workouts do NOT feel 20% easier and my heart rate is not decreased by 20%. I assume this means my sloppy technique was reducing the effectiveness of my workouts. Do it more better.

Mark, I notice your elbow flares out about 30-40 degrees during the exercise. Is that simply due to your using a heavier club? Should a newby using a lighter weight follow suit? Or should we try to keep our elbows pointed as straight ahead as possible? Thanks.

This is GREAT THANK YOU!

I beg your pardon Sir: are you in Italy? Any course/seminar here?

🤘🏼

Any news on when the next live will be?

💥🎯

Great videos. A club is probably going to be the next piece I buy. Just spent to much on ruck gear. A little off topic. The Belleville mini mil boots. Do you find them true to size? Don't suppose you wear Xero shoes? If so how do they compare size wise? It's always the biggest problem with shoes online. Thanks.

So needs be a book written

My dominant shoulder is my bad shoulder. And it's crying right now.

What should I buy first kettlebell (adj) or club/mace (adj)

I video taped myself to see if what I thought I was doing was in reality what I was doing. Nope I’m way off! So I’m going to do drills until I can touch my shirt with my thumb. I also thought I looked a certain way and the video added 20 lbs not ten. Oh boy!

When I shield cast... I get elbow pain similar to when I do pull-ups a bit too much. What can I do to avoid that?

Cuts went from D- to a solid C+, congrats to the editor! To score even better, try not to make any cuts mid-sentence. Try to synchronize them with speech patterns; better yet, synchronize them with Mark's breathing.
