Logest Mace Exercise Club - Heavy Duty Plastic Indian Clubs Available in 1 LB and 2 LB Set 3LB Set 4LB Set of 2 Perfect for Strength Training Rehabilitation Improves Grip Full Body Workout Mace Clubs

I honestly wasn't expecting much for the price, though I have bought several other Logest maces, as well as competitor products and have always been pleased. Obviously, this comes with a qualifier on price and this isn't a high cost set, so factor that in as well. However, it's a perfect set for learning Indian Club and probably even more so if you'd like to expand into other maces and/or clubs. I was looking at these in the context of trading them out later for wooden ones, but my impression now is that there would be no reason to do so for functional purposes.Both of each set of clubs came in at acceptable weights:1# club is 483g vs 454g in a pound. Both clubs the same.2# club is 945g vs 907g in 2 pounds. Both clubs the same.3# club is 1398g vs 1360g in 3 pounds. There was a 2g differential between the 2 clubs.The above is pretty amazing, given that these are composite materials. All are just barely heavier than the stated weight, but more amazing is that both of each size are the same, essentially down to the gram.The material is a very solid plastic material that shouldn't degrade over time. With the exception of the handle, the club is a slight tactile feel to it to avoid slippage, and each is comfortable to hold in my medium size male hand. The smaller club is easy for my wife to hold with her very small female hand. This means you could easily hold onto it with cold or wet/sweaty hands with no issues. Essentially, it feels and kind of looks like a very slightly textured iron mace that has been powder coated.The handle portion is much smaller and has less grip to it, feeling smooth but not slippery. It has about the same feel to it that a piece of varnished wood would have. This is idea because you have to manipulate the club and your main point of anti-slip is going to be the perfect size knob at the end.Overall, I have no issues with these for performance, consistency or maintenance, particularly at this price point. It's a great value for the money and will keep me watching Logest products.Only for the purposes of affirming that no product is absolutely perfect, I would say there are two things that someone could find less than desirable:1] The flat ends really don't work well for standing these things up on a hard surface and they will fall. The 1# won't stand up at all, the 2# will stand up until someone walks by or a squirrel in a tree outside sneezes, and the 3# will stand up but you wouldn't want to depend on that with a sleeping baby in the room. Not unexpected or really even annoying to me, but just full disclosure.2] Slightly more annoying to me is that the weight of each is very lightly stamped into the side of each club, but unreadable short of standing under a very bright light. Now this isn't a problem for the 1#, as they are very distinguishable skinny little things that aren't much different in the club end than they are in the handle. However, it takes a very fine eye to see the difference between the 2# and the 3#, especially if they aren't standing next to each other or don't have your readers on. What would be cool in the next iteration of the mold is if they made a really big 2 or 3 or somehow otherwise distinguished the two sizes in a more visible way. Just my two cents and not worth more than a 1/10 of a point in a review in my humble opinion.

These are absolutely perfect for restoring strength to my shoulders after a vaccine-related rotator cuff and shoulder injury. The self-help YouTube clips show exercises that may have worked for the uploaders, but for me, the exercises didn't hit the sweet spot of my injury. Weights seemed either too heavy and taxing on the shoulder or too light to have any benefit. These give me the low-weight resistance and meaningful pendulum stretch that gives my shoulders a gentle workout without pain, with movements that feel restorative.Seriously, why haven't Indian clubs been marketed more for rotator cuff injuries and SIRVA? It has been an absolute game changer for me.There are many different makers of these clubs. These were my first pair, so I don't have a representative sample for comparison. I can say that these are absolutely solid. They are weighted, and the heavy portion is firmly enclosed by the plastic. The handles are smooth, without any pieces protruding from the mold seams. Fabrication and QC are buttoned down.These appear longer than many of the competitors' one-pound clubs. I feel the longer length is conducive to deeper pendular swinging movements, allowing for greater extension. So, definitely a plus.Even as I consider heavier clubs for strength training, I feel these light one-pounders will keep their unique utility in restoring strength and mobility in my shoulders. One of my best new purchases of 2024 thus far.

I bought these to use for exercise my arm muscles & help strengthen my upper shoulders. I had a physical therapist who showed me how to use them — they are really good. There tons of exercise videos in YouTube.

As described. Seems to be good quality and accurate weight.

I have been getting a lot of use out of these.The weight is almost perfect, and the price is fantastic.I ended up using a box knife to scrape the seams off of the handle, and then rubbed some random sandpaper around it, to give it a better grip.

The one pound clubs are perfect weight for me to perform shoulder exercises. Having had problems with frozen shoulder's in the past, these clubs remind me to exercise. I can pick them up anytime and swing them and exercise my shoulders and arms.

They're great! 3lbs are no joke if you're starting and want to test yourself

Just what I expected, very well-made
