Homemade Indian Clubs

A buddy of mine, Jerry Shreck, strength coach at Bucknell University recently posted a video on how to make homemade Indian Clubs extremely simply!

Homemade Indian Clubs

Jerry helped me out a looong time ago when I first started Synergy Athletics by sending me some athlete nutrition guidelines he uses up at Bucknell.  A really dedicated trainer!  Find more of Jerry’s work over at his new website – VarietyTrainer.com.

Although Jerry gives me a shout out in the video, I’ll add that Matt Ladewski posted up a similar idea over at the Diesel Crew forums.  Matt, Jerry, Smitty, Jedd and I have been in numerous homemade training discussions over there, picking each other’s minds! 

After that discussion, and our trip to Westside Barbell,  I set out to make a monster pair of Indian clubs for swinging.  I made two so I could use one in each hand.   I even got some shot to fill up the clubs if they were too light. 

Apparently I need to measure before I guess at sizes!  The Indian Clubs were so big I could only use one at a time, and that was serious work.  Take a look at the picture:

Plenty of more ideas coming out soon, plus a big unveiling of some homemade equipment Jedd Johnson and I have been working on!
