Clubs, my favorite tool
Clubs are my favorite thing to use when I want to get a little more stretch in some of my exercises. I have a 1 lb pair of Indian clubs, and a 5 lb pair of Clubbells. A Clubbell is just the brand name of the clubs Scott Sonnon's company sells. I can't use both of the 5 pound clubs at the same time yet, but I'm getting better at using one of them. If I ever get to the point were I can use them both at once, I'll be doing pretty good.
The nice thing about a club is it stretches everything out away from your body and decompresses everything. It's really good for your shoulders, elbows, and wrists. Mine are starting to feel a little bit better all the time. Using them caused a lot of inflammation at first, but over time that's gradually gotten better. I did a lot a weightlifting when I was young and that kind of compressed everything. Swinging the clubs is really helping to get my shoulders and arms stretched out and functioning better. Another great idea I've gotten from Scott Sonnon.
