This marvelous wooden dummy (Murenzhuang, Mok Jan Chong, 木人桩) is made of solid acacia wood. With the trunk comes a set of three arms, one leg of one piece and an iron pedestal with industrial suction cups for almost any even floor. The pedestal can also be screwed to the ground.
Due to the suction cups there are no vibrations and no noise transmissions to the basic structure. Therefore this system is perfect for any city apartment. We choose personally the most beautiful and the most perfect dummy for you.

We offer two perfectly balanced halberds (Guandao, 关刀), one with a wooden the other with an inox shaft. They both have a stable blade, are made of quality material and have an ideal training weight. The hand guard is beautifully crafted with Chinese dragon and symbols. The possibility of dissembling the shaft makes it very easy to take them with you, and the halberds are still perfectly stable.

For me the suspension trainer (as TRX) is one of the most adaptable, good value and even so extremely effective training tool. You can easily pack it in the delivered mash bag and take the lightweight set to any holidays or to any journey. Installing takes a couple of seconds to almost anything: door, window, pole, beam, tree and many more. Find instructions for workouts and further information under TRX Workouts & Instructions »
