What’s the difference between swinging the Shoulderok and traditional maces?
The swing of the ShouldeRok swings more like a traditional mace than nearly all products on the market. If you are buying any traditional mace make sure it has between 45-49” in overall length with a lightweight handle to get the proper effect. Other than that the feel is a bit different with the light knurling to improve grip.
What weight should I start with?
A common mistake is not starting with some load and trying to ‘learn’ the movement which unfortunately does not work as the movement as the weight is needed for natural pendulum/swing to happen during a relaxation phase. Typically at least 5lbs is needed for this with only 2.5lbs for beginners. The more muscle you have the more weight you will need to require you to relax and let it swing versus muscling it around. With larger athletes possibly needing at least 7.5lbs to learn.
How do I progress my training with the Shoulderok?
Getting to 3 sets of 10 swings each direction 2-3 times a week is a good spot before adding any load. You can progress load or sets and repetitions. The best progression is to advance to being able to do swings with just one arm.
How do I integrate Shoulderok use in my training plan?
The shoulderok is possibly the most versatile tool in integrating to your training that can be used before training, after training, or on off days. The before training would be as movement preparation for an upper body or deadlift session, as well as to improve shoulder mobility before a squat session. Off day it is often a favorite for active recovery applications to get blood moving and everything moving well before your next training session. Post training is used to restore function or mitigate inflammation of any shoulder issues after a hard training session. The last potential use is for cardiovascular training but at Kabuki Power we feel that their are better choices and prefer to not employ the shoulderok in a fashion that may lead to deteriorated movement quality with fatigue from this type of training.
Can I use the Shoulderok if I’m recovering from an injury?
YES! The approach to know if and when to employee it is to use the same teaching progressions. The steps are self limiting and will let you know when to advance. We typically don’t recommend using the shoulderok till 12 weeks afterwards if you had a surgery affecting the shoulder. Less invasive surgeries may allow it much sooner but again follow the self limiting progressions and the advice of your healthcare professional.
