The Meel has to be the best designed club I have ever come across.

Shena – push-up boards

The Shena board is a simple yet powerful tool that elevates push-ups to the next level, enabling dynamic movement flows for total-body strength and conditioning. While Meels focus on building powerful shoulders, the Shena hones in on forging exceptional hip strength and mobility, unlocking your body’s full potential.

Sang – shields

Sang shields – the ultimate functional strength-building tool to develop exceptional core power, grip strength, and coordination. By enhancing kinetic linkage, alignment, and the ability to transfer force from your core to your grip, Sang training is essential for excelling in strength sports, martial arts, and preventing back pain in everyday activities.

Do you feel held back by physical pain or the resurfacing of old injuries during training?

Are you frustrated by plateauing fitness levels, slower recovery times, or declining athletic performance?

I understand how challenging it can be to juggle a busy lifestyle while striving to maintain your fitness goals. Outdated, monotonous training methods with unrealistic expectations not only hinder progress but also increase the risk of injury, making them counterproductive to long-term health and longevity.

Pahlavāni will forever change your approach to strength!

Pahlavani is one of the very few complete systems of training and conditioning, not only for the body but also for the mind and spirit through it’s beautiful philosophy and ancient wisdom.
