It’s not often that an exercise is as cool-looking as it works well, but club training is changing the overall game.
Clubs, of course, are traditionally mêlée weapons (read: used for bashing heads in), and the only reason people used to teach with them was to improve their feats in battle. It wasn’t until relatively recently that trainers and physical therapists learned that they’re incredible tools for increasing performance and recovery for strength athletes.
“The extreme range of motion and the variability of weight distribution means clubs assist in improving your internal stabilizing muscles, like the rotator cuff,” says Jonathan Amato, DPT/CSCS, a physical therapist located in Bethpage, New York. “The exercises also cause more joint separation than usual, which helps to lubricate the joint and improve its general health. It’s similar to an oil change: it provides the good fluid in and the bad stuff out, which helps to keep everything lubricated and healthy.”

Training focuses heavily on different sorts of swings, and at first glance, you may think a club is just a needlessly elaborate kettlebell. However the long lever, unbalanced weight, and multiple planes of motion mean that clubs offer a lot of benefits you can’t get somewhere else.
There are three varieties that are typically utilized by athletes, each with the own particular benefits. Take a look at the knowledge below to learn the best ways to implement them in your own training.
It all starts with a goal. Whether it’s to lose weight, are more active, join group fitness classes, improve flexibility, or even finish a 5k, everyone has at least one goal at heart when joining a gym. Though there are a few who may take a little more convincing and motivation, that’s why we’ve created a list of the five benefits associated with joining a gym.
Health
Improved health is the number one benefit for joining a gym. Working out regularly has numerous benefits, from avoiding colon and breast cancer to improving muscle strength, joint mobility, and blood flow.
Support and Motivation
Staying motivated can be difficult if you start down the fitness road alone. Simply having an accountability partner for support and motivation will keep you on the right track to better overall health and weight loss success.
Child Care
Many gyms offer child care rendering it less of a challenge for on-the-go parents with children. You no longer have to give up your workouts, instead you may take the children with you and let them play in the kid’s area while you get your workout in.
Access to equipment
While there are some workouts that you can complete at home, the best benefit about joining a gym is the accessibility of any kind of equipment you will need for taking care of a healthy lifestyle. From weight machines to treadmills, it’s easy to get in condition once you have access to all the equipment you will need.
Amenities
Many gyms are more than just treadmills, elliptical and weight machines. Other amenities such as kid’s clubs, tanning, personal training, group exercise classes, spa services, tennis courts, pools and snack/smoothie bars are also available in a few gyms.
Ultimately, it’s your decision to make the decision to join, but we encourage you to lead a wholesome lifestyle and sometimes all it will take is a gym membership to begin with.
