Steel Club Double Workouts
When I first got into steel clubs years ago it was mainly with singles and as I got more confident with them I wanted to up my skills with double variations. However, there were no real educational sources at the time. Then when I searched on Youtube people were more so showing off with steel clubs with music playing with no coaching cues (this was also a problem with maces too). So I came up with my own workouts instead of subscribing to the “monkey see, monkey do” method. I learn best when someone breaks it down and makes the movements clear with solid coaching cues. That’s what made me so good at kettlebell doubles learning from StrongFirst Masters and Team Leaders at their SFG level 1 & 2 certifications. They made me realize I should treat my workouts like practice…not a beating session to the point of injury. So over the course of a couple months I applied those SFG principles to make EFFECTIVE steel club double workouts.
Fast forward to now and I’ve now made many YouTube videos on steel club workouts, published a whole ebook on indian and steel clubs (GADA Club). I’ve always enjoyed training with steel clubs for the simple fact they are shaped unlike any other tool being elongated (versus the typical circular shape of many tools).
Below are FOUR double steel club workouts I’ve put together with the sets and reps under each video link:
