Training with weighted clubs has been around for centuries. The famous Indian wrestler Gama used to train with clubs weighing over 80lbs and his strength was legendary. Recently, training with weighted clubs has become very popular due to the efforts of Coach Sonnon and RMAX.tv Productions. I was pretty skeptical about the benefits of Clubbell® training when I first heard about them. However, I was also really skeptical about kettlebell training as well a few years ago. Fortunately, I kept an open mind regarding kettlebells and now make a good chunk of my living doing kettlebell workshops around the US and overseas. Hundreds of people have benefited from my workshops and my articles and I receive a lot of positive feedback daily. Regardless, there is nothing wrong with being skeptical. Especially, in an industry full of gimmicks and false promises. However, being provincial is not a good thing in this business and will result in one missed opportunity after another. As a regular guy that may not be a big deal. However, as a strength coach that line of thinking is unacceptable. Athletes pay me to teach them how to get stronger, faster, and increase sports performance. It is my job to know about new developments and at the least be aware of anything that could give my clients an edge. After hearing about the benefits of Clubbells® from a lot of people that I trust and after getting a great deal of questions from my clients regarding Clubbells®, I decided to get Coach Sonnon's Clubbell® video to see what they were all about.
