I know that occasionally some shovel glovers will take an interest in Persian meel, Indian club swinging, and other Middle Eastern conditioning systems due to the parallels that they have with our lovely hammer work. If you're one of those, then might I suggest checking this little corner of the Expert Village for a primer on the use there-of. They make a lot more sense than the, admittedly very amusing, drawings in the Victorian Club Swinging Books, which are sort of helpful in their own way, but not terribly clear. And the model's mustache is very distracting. :p
You can modify these moves for use with your own handy-dandy shovel glove (or vice-a-versa, if you don't mind cutting down the handle a bit), buy some grossly over-priced clubbells or slightly over-priced wooden clubs , or just make your own (Like I did).
Anybody else have any good info/links/suggested reading on clubs?
