Wooden clubs or club bells are a very good tool for functional training for martial artists or just longevity. And exercises and workouts are important for HEMA today as they are in the past. Next to our HEMA journey we present you some historical used exercises mostly forgotten today as you will find next to the Indian clubs also iron wand exercises and a bit of kettlebell. This is a break up of the backcircle of Ferdinand Lemaire. This circle is needed for our swinging series because of that many of you ask me to have a closer look at it again. The Backcircle is the perfect exercise to do with heavy clubs! Some may call this a shieldcast, some may call it a mill if combined with big circles but Lemaire introduced his own terms to keep his method simple. 0:00 Intro 0:58 About the backcircle 1:45 safety advise 2:12 explenation of the reversed backcircle 5:07 explenation of the backcircle 6:55 alternating variation 7:33 combination of Front circle and Back circle 7:57 rotating variation 9:09 outro Don't miss our step by step Indian club swinging series, that's how it all starts Other Calisthenics with Indian clubs from Great Britain And the Turner way of Indian clubs See the introduction of the wand exercises here: The exercises with Front position here And in rear position here: You can support us on Patreon #historicalfencing #functionaltraining #weighttraining #fitness #functionalfitness #oldschool #martialartstraining
