Exercise equipment

[edit]

This article most certainly does not focus on one aspect of toss juggling. It focusses on antique exercise equipment: the juggling connection is only incidental, and certainly not worthy of a special headline. Removing.

The "clubbell" is only one among many modernizers of the concept, and not particularly noteworthy apart from, perhaps, an external link. The dubious record, unless verified by someone like Guiness, will be removed as well.

This could also be linked to Rhythmic Gymnastics, where these clubs are still used. See the top image here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Rhythmicgymgroup.jpg for this. SkorpionUK (talk) 14:05, 20 November 2011 (UTC)SkorpionUK[reply]

Exercise equipment picture

[edit]

The first picture is wrong. those are not Indian painted clubs. The second picture is a better representation. They are conical and huge and heavy. Second Photo is an accurate representation with short handles. These are part of sword training. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 182.58.176.7 (talk) 14:36, 5 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I put back in two places on the web where one can find Indian clubs. (I agree the list of commercial sites previously here was a bit long). I do not have any financial interest in these companies, it just seems like "Where can I get these?" is a logical question that many readers would want answered. — Eoghanacht talk 13:30, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, the link police have removed the measley 2 links I just put it. So... if you are looking for these items, Google "sei do kai supplies catalog indian clubs" and "MotionRX". Also look on Ebay for "Indian Clubs". — Eoghanacht talk 13:37, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification is needed

[edit]

"used by military cadets and well-heeled ladies alike" What exactly does "well-heeled" mean? As a reader with a fairly large vocabulary, both slang and non-slang, I have never heard this before and imagine most people who come to the article have never heard it before either. Can someone who knows what the heck it means please go change it to be a bit more clear? Thanks 98.163.21.107 (talk) 04:48, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Additional citations

[edit]

Why and where does this article need additional citations for verification? What references does it need and how should they be added? Hyacinth (talk) 04:04, 7 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

indian clubs with persian origin is definitely false

[edit]

the shape of indian club looks very similar to a club displayed in on of the carvings in a sixth century rock temple early indian club, notice the gripping handle just like persian clubs/meels, it doesnt resemble another indian exercise club called Gada, here is Bholu pehelwan with two indian clubs, persian meel has nothing to do with indian clubs. 60.52.50.71 (talk) 23:54, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
