Warrior Steel Mace: A New Workout from the Old World

The warrior steel mace was an effective tool for hand-to-hand combat designed first around 10,000 years ago. It is blunt, built with uneven weight, and can be tricky to control. For those same reasons, Set for Set has designed a workout mace to add to your workout tool set.

We will follow the method of this tool and be blunt. This item is for those who have entered the world of unconventional workouts. If you are someone that enjoys crossfit, all body workouts, or is looking for a tool to hone smaller stabilizing muscles, you might enjoy incorporating this into your routine. The Warrior Steel Mace comes in two weights – 15 and 20 pounds and the website instructs new users with the following, “We suggest starting with the 15LB steel mace until you master movements such as 10 to 2, 360 swing, Gravedigger, and the Barbarian squat.” If you know what those workouts are, then this tool might be right for you.
