CAPITAL SPORTS Bludgeon Steel Training Clubbell

Name: CAPITAL SPORTS Bludgeon Steel Training Clubbell
Brand: Amazon
Rating: 4.44 (3 reviews)

The CAPITAL SPORTS Bludgeon is an 8kg fixed-weight steel clubbell built for swing and pendulum training that develops coordination and strength in the shoulders, arms, and hands. Unlike a standard dumbbell, its mass sits unevenly toward one end, so the same swing and pendulum movements demand more control and grip stability. The clubbell is cast entirely from steel and finished with a two-tone black and blue powder coat, with a 3.5cm-diameter handle that’s lightly roughened for grip. This is now a discontinued SKU – the manufacturer’s listing no longer resolves – so treat it as a used/secondary-market find rather than an active product line.

Finish	Two-tone black/blue powder coat
Weight	8 kg
Material	Cast steel
Dimensions	approx. 7 x 49 cm (diameter x height)
Handle diameter	3.5 cm

What is a Miscellaneou?

What’s in Miscellaneous

This is the catch-all for the conditioning tools and accessories that don’t fit a single equipment class — weighted vests and plate carriers, medicine and slam balls, plyo boxes, ab mats, and the odds and ends that round out a garage gym. Items land here because their job (loaded carries, jumps, core work) cuts across the categories rather than sitting neatly inside one.

Who it’s for

Anyone filling in the gaps around the big pieces. If you already have a rack, bar, and plates, this is where you find the vest for rucking and weighted push-ups, the ball for slams and wall throws, or the box for step-ups and box jumps. Match the tool to the training you actually do — a plate carrier for conditioning and rucking, plyo boxes for explosive work — rather than buying the whole shelf.

The CAPITAL SPORTS Bludgeon is a fixed-weight, 8kg cast-steel clubbell built for swing and pendulum work that trains shoulder, arm, and hand coordination through its deliberately uneven weight distribution. GymRadar’s small sample (3 reviews, 4.44/5) backs up the build quality — one owner calls it “a solid piece of steel” — but coverage is thin and mixed: the same owners flag a barely-there knurl and say they’d prefer an adjustable clubbell over this fixed weight. With the manufacturer listing it discontinued and no independent editorial or video reviews to corroborate, treat this as a budget, unverified pick rather than a proven one.

+Build quality: fully cast steel construction, confirmed by both the manufacturer and a GymRadar owner who called it "a solid piece of steel" (GymRadar)
+Build quality: highest-rated dimension in GymRadar's 3-review sample at 4.67/5 (GymRadar)
+Functionality: the uneven, uni-lateral weight distribution genuinely adds a coordination challenge beyond a standard dumbbell, as designed (capitalsports.de)

−Versatility: fixed 8kg weight only — one reviewer said they'd choose an adjustable clubbell/macebell instead after trying it (GymRadar)
−Build quality: the handle knurl is minimal, described as "barely there" by one reviewer (GymRadar)
−Durability: no long-term durability reports exist beyond a 3-review sample (GymRadar)
−Value: the SKU is discontinued and the manufacturer's product page no longer resolves, so current pricing and availability can't be verified (capitalsports.de)
