Retrospec Revolve Steel Macebell for Strength Training, Rehabilitation, Stretching, Conditioning and Rotational Training - 5, 7, 10, 15, 20, 30lb Options for Women & Men

I really like this steel macebell—it’s well constructed, the grip is great, and it feels balanced for flows, mobility, and shoulder/core work. The all-steel, matte black build looks and performs like a serious tool. Why I bought it: I wanted a compact tool for rotational strength, mobility, and shoulder stability that fits easily in a small home gym. The Retrospec Steel Macebell comes in multiple weights (5–30 lb), so I could start light and progress. I have a history of shoulder pain/ impingement and wanted a new way to workout First impressions (shipping & build): Arrived quickly and well packaged. The all-steel construction with a smooth, matte black finish looks clean and durable; the head-to-handle transition feels solid with no rattle. Grip texture is comfortable—not overly slick or shiny—which inspires confidence on longer sets. Ease of use: No assembly—take it out and train. Instructions are minimal but sufficient. There’s essentially no learning curve if you’ve used maces or clubs; beginners can start with simple holds, halos, and offset presses. Performance: It does exactly what it promises. The balance feels right (slightly head-heavy by design), the handle grip is excellent, and the finish has held up with no flaking so far. Quality is better than I expected at this price. How it compares: I’ve tried cheaper, seam-line, or plastic-ended maces; this one stands out for its solid, all-steel build and cleaner feel in hand. The range of weight options also makes progression easy without swapping brands. Who it’s for: Home gym owners wanting a space-saving tool for mobility and strength Athletes working on rotational power, grip strength, shoulder health Anyone who wants full-body, multiplanar training without bulky equipment Would I buy again? Yes. I’d happily pick up a heavier size for progressions. Purchased at full price—this is my honest opinion. Quick Pros & Cons Pros Well constructed, all-steel design Great grip; comfortable handle for long sets Matte black finish looks clean in a home gym Multiple weight options (5–30 lb) for easy progression Cons Finish can show chalk/sweat marks (cosmetic, wipes off) Technique matters—start light if you’re new to mace work Helpful Tips Begin with halos, offset presses, and 360s; progress to switch-grip flows once comfortable. If you’re new, choose a lighter weight than you think—maces feel heavier due to leverage. Store vertically or on a rack to protect the finish and keep the handle dry between session

I got a 10 and a 5 lb of these. I got the 5 for my smaller clients but I ended up using it for my warm ups and single handed practice. When I bought it the 5 lb was some kind of different model than the 10 lb, and I think the main difference to me is the handle knapping, on the 5 it's rougher/coarser. I like the feel of the 10 better, still a good grip, but doesn't feel like I'm going to be ripping up my hands as easily. Both feel solidly made, they have a nice finish, and I am not noticing any spots that make me question the quality. I think starting with the 10 was a good move. It was recommended as a starting place from multiple sources I read up on before buying. I'm about 6 feet tall, 220 lbs, and I do resistance training regularly. I'm not super strong, not an elite athlete or anything, but I work out more days than I don't. I do eventually want a heavier mace for 360s, but for everything else I do with it: uppercuts, battle lunges, split squats, etc, it's a good enough challenge. I'd probably not recommend anyone start heavier than that, if only because when you're first starting out with swinging the mace, you're going to probably flub it a bit here and there and you're going to want to be able to wrest control out of a bad swing if you need to, so you don't smash it into your hip or something. I don't know about the benefits of the mace as opposed to any other piece of equipment, what I do know is that it is interesting enough to me to keep me moving and doing it. I haven't used kettlebells very much but I like swinging this around a lot more than I ever liked a kettlebell. I'm left gasping and winded after certain sets of my little circuit I do, like the battle lunges get the burn going. I can feel the work in my core as I do 360s. If you're looking for a mace, this seemed to me like a pretty good deal for the quality.

We received the 7 lb. one today and my teen boys are using it already. The Macebell is very well made and looks like it was formed out of one piece of steel. The weight is accurate and the finish and knurling are great. We are very impressed with the quality of this piece of equipment. Once the boys get more experience with it they will move up to the 15 lb. Macebell (which we just ordered since it apparently just went on sale for the same price as the 7 lb. Macebell). It came well packaged in a box, wrapped in bubble wrap and plastic as well as formed foam around both the end of the handle and the head.

Got this cheaper than the smallest one it’s awesome sturdy looks good works well very comfortable to wield perfect weight

Mace arrived with just the shipping label taped around, don't know if they sent it like that or if something happened along the way and the original packaging was removed. As you can expect the mace was full of scratches all around, however no major damage that may affect its use. I sanded and spray painted it to cover all those marks and we were ready to go. As you can see the macebell weighted exactly 15 pounds and its length is the same as described. Finishing is good, no rough spots or sharp edges. Don't know how good the paint finish is with heavy use but I expect it will eventually chip or scratch. Overall it's a great tool for training and very challenging even at a low weight. I'm used to heavy kettlebells and dumbbells but the dynamics of the movements of the macebell make it extremely challenging even at low weight.

The advert shows all the mace above 10lb to be the same length but note that the diagram does split handle height and then mace end height. I didn't notice this and eded up with a mace that was almost 40" in length (10lb) which is just too long for me to use for mace flow. It's a great length for swinging though. I found the knurling to be quite rough as well.

Good for shoulders

I'm a macebell novice starting out with 10lbs. The macebell is well-made overall and the shipping was exceptionally fast. I like that it's got a bit of texture on the handle as it helps me remember/be more attentive to my hand placement. I have fairly small hands and I find the diameter of the handle comfortable. I'm 5'5" and it feels about two inches too long, but once I learn my exercises and develop better spatial awareness with this tool, I know that extra length will be great for higher resistance. The exercises themselves are challenging and interesting to me, which will keep me engaged. My macebell won't be a piece of exercise equipment that gets relegated to a dusty corner and forgotten. The only complaint I have so far is this: I've used it three times since it arrived and the paint on the macehead is already chipping. That said, I didn't buy it to keep it looking pretty so I personally don't care if the paint job isn't great. I'm still giving it five stars.

Llegó muy bien empaquetado y al día marcado La masa es justo lo que quería
