Mugdar training isn't about lifting heavy to get big muscles, it is about restoring the rotational movement your joints have lost. We use wooden clubs to gently open the shoulders and wrists, bringing back that fluid, loose feeling you have not had since you were younger. ### Rediscover Ancient Movement Modern gym routines often focus on linear, repetitive movements that can eventually lead to joint issues. Mugdar and Indian club training take a different path. These tools use circular, flowing patterns that are inherently better for your shoulders, wrists, and back. Think of it as a massage for your joints while you build functional strength. ### Why Desk Workers Choose This Most of my clients come to me with the same problem: a desk job that has left their posture hunched and shoulders tight. Indian club workouts address this directly. The swinging motion forces you to engage your core and improve your brain coordination, all while loosening those tight spots. It is not just a workout; it is a way to undo the damage of sitting all day. ### Our Training Approach Whether you are an athlete or someone who hasn't touched a weight in years, I start where you are. My sessions focus on: - **Mechanics:** Learning the correct grip and swing path to ensure safety. - **Mobility:** Specifically targeting stiff wrists and shoulders to counteract screen time. - **Flow:** Moving from simple drills to complex patterns that keep your mind and body active. ### How We Train - **Workshops:** Join our offline group sessions at Callipers Fitness in Bellandur. All high-quality Rosewood equipment is provided, so you just need to show up. - **Personal Training:** If you want one-on-one attention for injury rehab or specific flow goals, we can do this in-person or via video call. - **Online Mentorship:** For those who want to build a consistent habit, join our live virtual morning batches. You will need your own clubs for these, and I will guide you through the flow in real-time. ## About Praveen KA I am Praveen.
