Clubbell Strength Training: Ancient Power Meets Modern Fitness

How I Discovered Clubbells

I was new to exercising with clubbells when lockdown hit. Stuck at home, I bought a pair for my gym setup and started experimenting with different workouts. What began as a curiosity soon became a passion—after training with them for over two years, I’ve even designed a clubbell programme for my golfing clients. The results? Less shoulder pain, stronger cores, and a real boost to their game.

Unlike conventional weightlifting—where progress means lifting heavier—the clubbell is swung, not lifted. Swinging creates torque, and torque increases force production. That means clubbells build elasticity in soft tissue rather than breaking it down like the repetitive, one-dimensional movements of traditional weightlifting.

Unlike conventional weightlifting, where you must increase the weight lifted, the clubbell is actually swung. Swinging weight increases torque, and increasing torque increases force production. This boosts soft tissue elasticity rather than traumatising it like the one and two-dimensional movements in conventional weightlifting.

What Are Clubbells?

If you’ve never heard of clubbells, you’re not alone. Their origins can be traced back to strongman traditions in Ancient Persia. Back then, wrestlers and fighters known as Pahlavans trained with heavy clubs to build strength, mobility, and fighting power. Similar tools, called Indian Clubs, made their way to Britain and then to the USA in the 19th century.

Today, clubbells have made a comeback—especially in sports performance training. Swinging lighter weights trains the body to move faster and with more control. That’s why they’re particularly effective for golfers, tennis players, MMA fighters, and anyone who wants rotational strength.

Best of all, they’re versatile. You can use them at home, at the gym, or even outdoors. They’re lighter than kettlebells but more dynamic and fun—making them a great addition to any fitness routine.

The Top Benefits of Clubbell Training

Clubbells aren’t just another trendy piece of kit. They offer benefits that other tools can’t match, including:

• Grip strength and endurance

• Shoulder mobility, stability, and strength

• Joint and connective tissue health

• Improved rotational force (great for golf, tennis, and martial arts)

• Multi-planar movement training (sagittal, frontal, transverse)

• Core stability and whole-body integration

• Deceleration training (learning to absorb force safely)

• Kinesthetic awareness (moving better, not just stronger)

Works all the you body work out Clubbells

What Muscles Do Clubbells Work?

Heavy club exercises challenge the fingers, hands, forearms, and shoulders to maintain proper positioning. This builds tremendous grip endurance and dexterity. Beyond that, clubbells strengthen the arms, back, and core, while also enhancing balance and coordination.

Most shoulder training is limited to presses or lateral raises, but clubbells hit the shoulders in completely unique ways thanks to their long lever and unbalanced weight. This engages stabilising muscles that conventional lifts often miss.

Who Can Use Them?

The beauty of clubbells is that anyone can use them. They’re especially beneficial for:

• Athletes with shoulder weakness or past injuries

• Golfers wanting more power and mobility

• MMA fighters who need rotational strength and endurance

• Everyday people who want a fun, full-body home workout

Clubbells are portable, versatile, and don’t take up much space—perfect for home gyms or outdoor workouts.

A Word of Caution

Don’t overpay for cheap knockoffs. Indian clubs and clubbells vary widely in quality, so it’s worth investing in a proper set that’s designed for training.

Training Process with Scott Bryant

1. Initial Consultation & Assessment

   • A deep dive: health, posture, movement screening, lifestyle, nutrition, goals. Active Bryant Fitness Systems+1

   • Scott emphasises holistic coaching: strength, posture, thyroid/weight issues, pain management, and lifestyle. Active Bryant Fitness Systems+1

   • Location is flexible: at your home, in Battersea Park, private gyms or online. Active Bryant Fitness Systems+1

2. Bespoke Programme Design

   • After assessment, you receive a tailored training plan (movement, strength, corrective work), nutrition and lifestyle guidance. Active Bryant Fitness Systems+1

   • If you have specific issues (lower-back, shoulders, posture, thyroid-related weight gain) these are factored in.

3. Training Sessions

   • Sessions scheduled per your package: 1-on-1, sometimes in public (park) or private space.

   • The actual exercises will likely include functional strength, posture/mobility work, corrective exercise and eventually performance/conditioning aspects — Scott’s approach is more than “just gym time”.

4. Ongoing Support & Monitoring

   • Progress tracking, lifestyle & nutrition coaching, adjustments to plan. Active Bryant Fitness Systems

   • The “luxury” framing means high touch: you’re not just a number.

5. Review & Adaptation

   • Periodically reassess posture/movement & adjust plan.

   • If you integrate clubbells (see below) this would fit in as part of the overall strength/conditioning strategy.

Pricing Packages

Here are the key pricing tiers from Scott’s site: Active Bryant Fitness Systems

• Bronze Package: ~ £97 per session — good for foundational work.

• Silver Package: ~ £120 per session — more depth, lifestyle/nutrition included.

• Gold Package: ~ £180 per session — premium, full-service, highly customised.

• Individual Session: £180 for 60 minutes (for highest end) also listed. Active Bryant Fitness Systems

• Add-ons: 30-minute sessions, children’s fitness training, etc.

• Block bookings & loyalty incentives: e.g., long-term commitments get discounts or bonuses.

️ Clubbells Training Integration

Since you asked specifically about clubbells training:

• We can incorporate clubbells as part of the strength/conditioning component of the programme.

• Example process: after assessment, we’d identify where clubbell training makes sense (e.g., shoulder mobility/stability, posterior chain strength, rotational power).

• Sessions would include clubbell-specific movements (swing, clean, press, rotational swings) combined with corrective and mobility work (especially useful for your shoulder / lower back focus).

• Pricing: This would fall under your chosen package (Bronze/Silver/Gold) unless specifically marketed as “clubbell-only” or special format. So you’d pay the session price as above, and the clubbell inclusion is part of the service.

✅ Next Steps / What I Recommend

• Choose which package level (Bronze/Silver/Gold) you’re comfortable with.

• Schedule the initial assessment with Scott. (He notes limited new assessment slots.) Active Bryant Fitness Systems

• During your first meeting, mention you’re keen on clubbells training and have shoulder/lower-back/posture/thyroid-weight issues — so he can design the plan accordingly.

• Clarify logistics: location (home/park/private gym), session length (60 mins?), frequency, commitment length.

• Ask about block-booking discounts if you commit to e.g., 10 sessions or 3-month blocks.
