Le mazze Strength Shop sono la definizione di un attrezzo per l’Allenamento Funzionale.
Origini
Parte di una rinascita di modalità di allenamento antiche, semplici e incredibilmente efficaci, l’Allenamento con la mazza ha origine nell’Asia meridionale e nel Medio Oriente, dove guerrieri e lottatori utilizzavano le mazze come parte di una routine di Allenamento Funzionale che offriva loro un vantaggio competitivo sia in battaglia che nello Sport.
Oggi, la maggior parte di noi non brandirà una mazza sul campo di battaglia, ma questo non significa che tu non possa avere la forza del core e la mobilità della spalla di un antico guerriero persiano!
Come funziona?
Posizionando la maggior parte del peso all’estremità di una lunga Leva, l’Allenamento con la mazza coinvolge la tua presa, il core e i muscoli stabilizzatori mentre esegui esercizi impegnativi e non convenzionali con carichi sbilanciati.
Sebbene la mazza venga utilizzata principalmente in esercizi dinamici per la parte superiore del corpo, come esercizi rotazionali e di oscillazione, è anche un ottimo modo per rendere più interessanti i movimenti tradizionali grazie a numerose varianti di squat, affondo, spinta e variazioni di curl.
Perché allenarsi con la mazza?
Allenarsi con la mazza si integra perfettamente con il lavoro di forza e lavoro di condizionamento più convenzionale, ed è particolarmente adatto agli atleti che devono generare forza da angolazioni varie e imprevedibili.
Che si tratti di lanciare una palla o un pugno, o di utilizzare attrezzi come bastoni o pagaie, l’Allenamento con la mazza migliora la performance atletica allenando in modo efficace mobilità, generazione di forza e controllo motorio su carichi e Leve scomode.
La mazza è anche un’aggiunta eccellente a programmi di powerlifting, Strongman o bodybuilding, così come per chi lavora alla scrivania, poiché rafforza, stabilizza, riabilita e aumenta efficacemente l’ampiezza di movimento dell’articolazione della spalla.
Specifiche:
Materiale: palla in ghisa piena, manico in acciaio
Lunghezza Maniglia: ca. 95 cm
Diametro Maniglia: 4 cm
Zigrinatura Maniglia: Morbida
Proprio come per l’allenamento con kettlebell, è consigliabile iniziare con un peso inferiore rispetto alle aspettative e aumentare gradualmente man mano che crescono forza e ampiezza di movimento funzionale. Nota che puoi regolare efficacemente il peso della mazza spostando la presa lungo la lunghezza della maniglia, modificando così la lunghezza della Leva.

Versand verlief zügig und zuverlässig. Ich hatte erst die 9kg bestellt, welche mir dann doch etwas zu schwer war, für die ersten Übungen. Daraufhin habe ich dann noch die 3 & 6kg bestellt. Nach nicht einmal einem Monat traniere ich nun ausschließlich mit der 6 & 9kg (je nach Sesh ca. 1000 Reps). 100 Mal abwechselnd mit jedem Gewicht und immer nach 50 wird die Richtung (360° Übung) gewechselt, in welche ich Swing. Denke ich werd in naher Zukunft auch die 12kg bestellen. Für die 15kg lasse ich mir noch etwas mehr Zeit. :)
I have all steel maces from 4 up to 15kg (non competition type) from different brands with a varied level of satisfaction. I decided to add a light weight mace 3kg of Strengthshop for single handed warm-ups & long sets up to hundred reps. I like the soft knurling & length, shape, paint quality is medium - not mat powder coated as I have from Gravity Fitness f.e. Even though packaging was great mace had scratches from metal stables used to reinforce packing - this requires more attention even its minor yet visually scratches suck & could be avoided. There was no indication handle diameter on this weight would be 32mm, yet it’s ok for such weight. The whole process of order & delivery processing was high standard. I might try the competition macebell in future.

Hi Serguey,
thanks a lot for taking the time to share your experiences with this product. We are pleased that you are generally satisfied and are considering another purchase. We have already emailed you about the minor defects in the coating and look forward to your reply.
Macebell 3kg. I am a regular MB user, first time trying this brand. I have many weights & brands from 4-15kg. This one I like the paint quality & smooth longer Knurling closer the the top edge. So, quality is good, design, functionality, have to check true weight yet. Packaging was great yet the staples leave scratches in both ends & bubble plastic cn not prevent it, so visually those scratches suck. There is no mention that MB 3kg handle diameter is 30mm & it is, I was expecting a 40mm diameter as described. Delivery WS good via UPS, order processing, all correct. This is a higher than regular quality Macebell. I use light MB for flows, shoulder therapy & take them outdoors & day trips for content making. 30mm diameter handle is deceptive as visually is not so cool & not same for flow as 40mm. So I might use it for warm-ups & one-handed flows.

These maces are premium quailty, only cons is that is out of stock… i am waiting for them, i want to order more for my gym :)
I have 2x3kg and 1x15kg maces
I consider myself as a quite strong person for an average office worker, so when choosing which mace to buy first, I decided to go for 15 kilos mace. Do not repeat my mistake, do not buy the toughest one as your first one. I was able to do some exercises with it, but a very few ones. So next one I bought was 9 kilos, and still after six months of working out with it I think it is a best core strength builder. Later I thought it would be cool to have some lighter maces, so now I got also 3 and 6 kilos and I cannot express how much I like them too.
So I use 3 kilos - for forearms warm-up ; 6 kilos for core warm-up or specific endurance training, 9 kilos for core strength building and forearms total annihilation, and 15 kilos for some specific exercises like lateral squats, shoulder press or Romanian one leg deadlifts.
I just wonder what 12 kilos will be like.
The macebell is great. I ordered 6kg and it's really good for a beginner. Quality is also nice. I like the grip. Not too harsh for the hands, but not too smooth either. Feels like a quality tool overall. Im happy!
Love the singing of the maces on these. I've Put them upright next to each other and accidently knocked them all over. It was like hearing wind chimes during a storm.
Das Produkt ist super, die Lieferung über UPS war eine Katastrophe. Das Paket wurde einfach in irgendeinem Gartengrundstück hinterlegt und ein Foto dazu gemacht. Nur durch Zufall fand mich der Mensch , bei dem es reingeworfen wurde.... und ich konnte es dann dort abholen. Das war über einen Kilometer entfernt von meiner Adresse!

Thank you for your feedback. We're really glad to hear you're happy with the product, but we're truly sorry to hear about the delivery experience, that’s definitely not the service we expect from our couriers. We’ll pass this along to UPS and follow up with them to help prevent this in the future. Thank you for bringing it to our attention.
A very diverse ancient training tool that everybody should have in their training tool selection.
Delivery was fast, sufficiently packaged. The welding seam or whatever between the handle and the weight wasnt exactly impressive, but thats just a minor visual problem and doesnt impact working out. But otherwise seems like a good quality product!
I love the mace! The handle length and diameter is perfect and the knurling is not too aggressive. I had to get a 4kg mace from another company as I realised the 6kg would be too heavy for me to start with and the jump from the 3kg that this shop has would be too big. After swinging the 4kg for a few weeks, I feel ready to swing the 6kg now.
