Ryan replied to John Wint's discussion 'BUILDING LATS WITH MACEBELL'

Good effort on trying to use the Gada to hit the lats..personally I would have given up and just did some pullups.

Ryan replied to Kevin Wikse's discussion 'Important Macebell Sport update!'

I forgot about the competition. Congrats to everyone who competed. Kevin, I like your idea of mixing the movements up for competition. Many sports have tried different formats, movements etc before hammering things down. Can you post a vid of the wh…

Ryan replied to John Wint's discussion 'BUILDING LATS WITH MACEBELL'

How heavy is the macebell that you are swinging? The Lats are strong muscles and if you are swinging a 10kg macebell it will be hard to work the lats hard with any Macebell move...no matter the reps.

Ryan replied to Kevin Wikse's discussion 'Macebell Sport!!!'

Like the idea but I would switch it to 5 minutes, not 10. 5 minutes would force competitors to push the pace and spectators would watch more intently to 5 minutes over 10. One of the biggest complaints about kettlebell sport lifting is that it is bo…

About Me:

My name is Ryan and I live in Braintree, Massachusetts with my wife and daughter. I teach kettlebell classes 5 days per week in Braintree.

What is your favorite aspect of Macebell Strength Training?

I like the uniqueness of the Macebell. I have also been using kettlebells for the past few years and feel the macebell and kettlebell are good companions in my training. This summer I plan on spending alot of time outdoors training with the Macebell.

Right I am kinda switching things up a little bit with the clubbell just because I think my body has got used to the swings and snatches. With the clubbell I can do a dynamic upward swing and dynamic downward force with the front swipe/pull over and combine the two in one motion, it feels really good on my shoulders arms and core in combination with the swinging of the macebell. After I reach my curent goals with the macebell I want to start working on combination sets with the kettlebells, like swing-clean-squat and press, nothing fancy but take it into high reps. I am a HUGE believer in the kettlebell and then combine them into circuts with the macebell.
