Iron Arm Conditioning Rod


Kicker Chick

Recommended Posts

My master recently suggested that I try using an Iron Arm conditioning rod ( which I think is also called a maki stick in Japanese). He specifically recommended it for use in toughening my feet because I suffer from plantar fasciitis, but also for overall conditioning.

Anyone had experience using an Iron Arm for conditioning, and if so, can you recommend the best way to use it?

Yes I use them its a good bit of kit for coditioning, I do a ten minute routine with it daily working the arms legs and torso. Little and often is the way and I find rubbing in tiger balm after seems to help. It is important with this type of conditioning to get the blood flowing around the conditioned areas after your routine a rubbing motion after helps and as I said you could use tiger balm which makes you do this when applying.

However I would not reccomend it to help with your feet try the suggestions on this link.

We are necessarily imperfect and therefore always in a state of growth,

We can always learn more and therefore perform better.
