Best Iron wand exercises for fencers - increase your lunge like an old skool Turner

The Turner used wooden wands and also iron wands for functional fitness training. This was loaded stretching for a well rounded health body and it will work today for everyone in or outside of the fitness industry. Old time physical culture was performed by every soldier or warrior around the world, so was this. The demonstrated poses with the wand we have done in several videos standing upright in a straight posture, in Vorlag and also in Rücklag will now be used in a Step to Auslag aka lunge position with an open hip like a fencing lung and with closed hip position as the modern day lunging step or lung. The first one will increase all your fencing footwork with foil, sabre, rapier and so on, while the second is more suitable for boxing and wrestling arts. These exercises are a perfect add on to every martial artists training, weather he trains unarmed or with weapons.
