Best Steel Mace Instagram Criteria:

We’ve chosen the following accounts based on a few criteria. To make it on this list, the Instagram page must be steel mace focused, meaning they often post about steel maces. Furthermore, the page must provide value, be that education, inspiration, motivation, or all of the above. We know many people in the steel mace community are worthy of this list, but we wanted to provide pages that are heavily steel mace focused and from people who are skilled with the steel mace - self-taught or certified, it doesn’t matter. Their understanding of steel mace training and JAM (joints, actions, muscles) must be up to par. Also, we want to provide you with steel mace Instagram pages that create their own content. 

You can be confident that when you follow these Steel Mace Instagrams you will be following someone who you can trust and learn from, one way or another.

If you’ve been following mace stuff on Instagram at all you’ve probably seen Leo. He is the steel mace flow master, and he is quite eccentric.

Rock is a good friend of SET FOR SET and someone who we’ve been collaborating with pretty much since day one. He is a fantastic coach and another flow master. He swings maces and kettlebells, and does all types of traditional and unconventional training as well. If you are on the new wave of fitness, he’s a guy who you can learn a ton from. His Monday Mace Breakdowns are ultra-informative and will help you advance your mace skills quickly. If you are in the Portland area, you may even be able to learn from him in person or set up a workshop. If you want education, inspiration, motivation and proper tutorials, get over to his page.

She swings maces, clubs, kettlebells and more. Her collection of equipment is magnificent - old school gada-style maces and other stuff you’ve possibly never seen. There is so much to learn by following her page and she will definitely motivate you to work hard.

No macebell list would be complete without the legend himself - Mr Maceman. He was one of the first to bring steel maces to the scene in the West. He’s pure tradition, teaching the fundamentals of steel mace training to precision. His page is great for motivation and inspiration.

A post shared by HARBERT | MACE SPECIALIST (@functional.harbeats) on Feb 14, 2019 at 8:03am PST

This guy is F’in awesome. Herbert is the Dutch mace specialist. He travels the world and he’s always got his mace with him. He does flow tutorials on his page which are extremely informative and well done. It’s nice that he doesn’t just flow awesome, he teaches it well too. Moreover, his ability to inspire is next level. He has some awesome videos flowing outside of places like the Taj Mahal, Golden Gate Bridge, and many more equally dope places. His travels to India, the home of the Gada (the original mace training tool), are really fun to follow. He’s one of our personal favorites to keep an eye on.

This page isn’t necessarily dedicated to steel mace movement, but it has some of the best information on training properly and building a foundation of solid movement and mobility so you don’t get injured and to upgrade your overall fitness. That being said, many of the exercises and tutorials apply to steel mace training, like using bands to improve your steel mace 360 form. If you want a page that addresses a lot of the BS that you see in the gym, and that will teach you some essentials to warm up, workout, and recovery, they are the guys. Upgrade yo’self with the Upgrade Guys.

He’s constantly putting out new moves that are great for people at all levels and he runs giveaways and contests quite often (we sponsor some of the giveaways - free maces!). If you are looking for a good resource for different steel mace exercises, this page is a must-follow.  If you want this type of training in person, you can contact @coach_rt3, as he runs workshops across the states, usually on the west and east coast.
