Unlock Strength with the Bulava: The Hybrid Tool for Building Powerful Shoulders, Core, and Grip

Introducing the Bulava Mace… a compact, steel mace that’s just the right length for traditional mace moves like the 360, but short enough to swing laterally like a club. Think of it as a perfect balance: less torque than a full-sized mace, more than a club, opening up a ton of new swing options.

Why Choose the Bulava Mace?
With its versatile handle length, the Bulava serves as both a “long club” and “short mace.” From mills to shield casts, every movement demands your whole body. Inspired by the Ukrainian and Polish Buławas, these compact maces re-imagine an ancient training tool, giving you the weight-forward feel of maces with the versatility of clubs.

Strength with Purpose
The Bulava Mace doesn’t just target your core—it also engages your lats, traps, triceps, and grip. Borrowing club-swinging techniques from Indian and Persian traditions, it’s a fresh and powerful addition to any training routine.

A Legacy of Power
The Buława was once a weapon and a symbol of power, known for its strength and precision. Now, with the Bulava Mace, you’re channeling that same power and bringing tradition into your training.

Benefits of Bulava Training	1. Boost Your Grip Strength and Endurance Training with a Bulava is unlike working with standard weights like kettlebells or dumbbells. Because of its unique design, you have to keep a firm, active grip, which really engages the muscles in your hands and forearms. With every swing, the Bulava challenges your grip endurance, building it up bit by bit. 2. Full-Body Workouts that Flow One of the best parts of Bulava training is how you can turn multiple moves into a seamless, flowing sequence. Known as “Bulava flow,” this approach lets you link three or more exercises together into a smooth chain where each move flows naturally into the next. It’s dynamic, challenging, and definitely keeps things interesting. 3. Core Strength While Staying on Your Feet Unlike other core exercises where you’re often on the ground, Bulava training builds core strength while you’re upright—more like how you move in everyday life. A strong core makes a big difference for stability and is key for athletes who need that solid, ground-up power. 4. Gentle on Joints, Great for Tissues Heavy lifting exercises like bench presses and squats tend to compress your joints over time. But with the Bulava, the swinging motions actually create a slight pulling force, or traction, which can decompress your joints and stretch out connective tissues, keeping them healthier. 5. Shoulders That Are Strong, Mobile, and Resilient The Bulava is excellent for shoulders because you’re not just lifting it—you’re controlling its movement through swings and stops. This builds shoulder stability, mobility, and strength, helping you create a resilient shoulder girdle less prone to injury. 6. Perfect for Rehab and Prehab Lighter Bulavas are ideal for rehab, as they target smaller muscles and tendons in the shoulder, elbow, and wrist. They’re also fantastic for warming up and gently strengthening these areas before you dive into a more intense workout, so they’re great for injury prevention too. 7. Moves Through Every Plane What makes the Bulava so unique is its ability to move through all three planes of motion, unlike many traditional strength tools. Bulava training naturally includes swinging, twisting, and rotating movements, covering angles that are usually left out of typical workouts. 8. Build Serious Rotational Strength The design of the Bulava is perfect for rotational strength. Swinging, chopping, and twisting with it builds torque and targets muscles that don’t get as much attention with traditional weights. This rotational training element takes your strength to new levels, especially if you’re into sports or activities requiring dynamic movement.
History of Bulava Training	The Buława, also known as the Bulava, is a fascinating type of mace that typically measures between 50 and 80 cm long. It features a handle topped with a head shaped like a sphere or an octahedron. This weapon first emerged in the 13th century and quickly spread through Poland and Ukraine, later making its way to Hungary and Germany. Initially, it was a tool for combat, but over time, it became a powerful symbol of authority. Traditionally made from wood or metal, the Buława often showcases intricate designs that add to its beauty. In close combat, it’s a force to be reckoned with; its weight and structure allow for heavy strikes that could easily break bones or crush an enemy’s skull. No wonder it was a favorite on the battlefield! Cavalry and light infantry often wielded the Buława, and by the 15th to 18th centuries, it had evolved into a symbol of military rank in Poland. Fast forward to today, and the Buława still holds significance as a ceremonial emblem, particularly representing the office of the President of Ukraine. You can even find it preserved in the Vernadsky National Library. All in all, the Buława is more than just a weapon; it’s a vital piece of military history. It reflects the strength and skill of those who wielded it, as well as the prestige it has come to represent over the centuries.
